Some day, when I get time...

susandennisI've been fully retired for 7 years and I worked from home for a decade before that so I've had time on my hands before. But these are New Level days.
So today I made a couple of face masks. Which is hilarious because I have several and a few on order and don't ever go anywhere anyway. I keep one in my pocket for my walks but only take it out if/when I encounter another person which isn't often.
Then, I did that one job that I was sure I was going to die having never gotten to... For about 10 years now, whenever I saw a book that looked interesting, I put it on my Audible wish list. The list grew to more than 300 books. I already read some. I lost interest in others. I have no idea how or why some ever even got on the list.
Plus, I am seriously considering closing out my Audible account.
So, today, I went through every single one of the 300 some odd books and looked at the synopsis and decided... want/don't want. If want, does the library have it? If yes, off the list. If no, leave on the list.
It took forever but now there are 28 books left on the list. Audio books that the library does not have that sound like I may want to read them. A much easier list to deal with when deciding to shut down the account or not.
And the rest of the Might Wanna Reads are now safely on my library list. The library's catalog of audiobooks has gotten so rich.
I am now officially at the end of my ToDo list!

Date: 2020-06-20 10:39 pm (UTC)I canceled about a month ago, but I only have 10 books left to listen to after deleting stuff I knew I'd never read. I got frustrated one day so I went back to an old favorite author, JoJo Moyes, Me Before You.
