I will check our local library first to see if the have it.

If they haven't won't they get it for you? They will here.

If the library here in town doesn't have it, they check their system to see
if another library has it to lend to them. When the book is not being
borrowed by someone else, whatever library that does have it on their
shelves will send it on to our library and they will then give me a call
saying it's in. Most times they borrow from another library in the same
county... but on occasion they have to go even farther away to find a
particular book. Pretty neat system. )

It won't break the bank. Do without biscuits for a while - better for you
anyway :-)

Oh doing without biscuits isn't what concerns me... I have done without much
more than that before. My main concern is that we are able to keep up with
our regular bills... once that is done, I will happily do without some food
to get something I would really like to have.

Actually, come to think of it... I have to work out whether I have enough
money to get my son something for his birthday next Tuesday. He's a good
kid (he would NOT be pleased with me calling him that of course... he will
be 26) who does without so often, so one
special thing on his birthday would be nice. Of course he has already said
he would rather that we could go pick up my cousin Linda (who has terminal
cancer) and her son Liam, if Linda is feeling up to travelling. According
to Liam (who was chatting online with Matthew yesterday) Linda is feeling
better and has more good days now that her medication has been adjusted,
"but she still does have some days when she feels like a dogs dinner". So
we'll have to see how it goes *if* we can afford the gas to get there at
all. I really hope we can at least go visit them for a couple of days at
least, as we just have no idea at all how much longer Linda will still be
with us. (

Anyway, Matthew is hoping to have a small barbeque gathering with only 3 or
4 friends. We will be pricing a couple of food items tomorrow (when the
money is in), and if we can manage he is hoping to do either his barbequed
chicken dinner *or* his Hawaiian Shishkabab. If we can't afford either of
those... hamburgers and hotdogs it is. It will be a very casual gathering
of his close friends (who know Matthew's lack of work situation), so he's
already told them it's a BYOB (bring your own booze) party *if* they want to
drink.... but considering that they will be coming from outside of town (his
best friend can stay the night, but we have no room for more... especially
if my cousin and her son can come too), they may choose not to drink. They
are also going to be bringing along salads to go with the main meal, and
chips for snacks later on while sitting around a campfire in the back yard.
I think they are also bringing bathing suits to have a dip in the pool
too... as Matthew has already established "Pool Rules" with them.

*hugs*

Yes, that's what happens here but if other libraries don't have a book
they'll usually buy it.

I've done that many times.

Perhaps I'm overweight now because I'm making up for those days :-)
