Book Requests Granted

A couple months ago after reading Harriet Evans I Remember You, I submitted a "Suggest A Purchase" book request on the LAPL website for three more of her books.

A Hopeless Romantic
The Love Of Her Life
Happily Ever After

None of her books were available at the Burbank public libraries ... so I figured I might have a better chance since Los Angeles Central Library had three of her books.

I finally did a search again for the books ... and now ... ALL THREE are "On Order" ... possibly available in November.

This makes me really happy.  I love going to the library to borrow books ... I probably would love to be able to purchase every book I've read ... but with my broke status ... and my cubicle studio apartment ... that is not going to happen.

Now If only I win the lottery ... I can open my own bookstore ... and make contributions to the libraries.

Ask ... and ye shall ....

I got something that I wanted.

I kind of felt silly asking for it ... and just when I thought nothing was going to happen ... I guess the Universe came through.

It could be just some kind of coincidence.

But I read somewhere ... maybe coincidences are Gods way of remaining anonymous.

So ... THANK YOU ... and I know now ... even little silly requests are answered.

New Tub !!

After months of a chipped bath tub ~

After weeks of a clogged bath tub ~

I decided to fill out a maintenance request form to fix the clog .... and maybe reglaze the tub.

And it was granted !!

I really wanted to be able to unclog the tub myself ... but I just couldn't do it.  So I filled out the forms ... I wasn't sure they would actually reglaze my tub ... but the apt managers came through.

New Fan !!

BEFORE:

I had this small "desk" fan on top of piled up phone books to "cool" the cubicle studio apartment

AFTER:

Now I have this fan !!  My cubicle studio apartment is cooler than ever!!  

Thanks to my co-worker who felt sorry for me!!

Sofa King Hot

I'm sweating.

I'm sweating.

I'm sweating.

In serious need of another fan ... this fan I've had for years is about to retire or just die.

Hot. Hot. Hot.

I've been shampooing my hair in a daily basis because I've been sweating too much, I need to wash my hair.  It just took the 10 minutes I walked from my apartment to the bus stop to dry my hair ... and I have very long hair.

When will this heat end !!!
