The beginning of a new day, the end of a month. What’s that? Did I blink or something? Wow, May 2012 will soon be behind us.

Last week, Miss Jenny kicked off round 5 of Alphabe-Thursday. What bright idea will flash in my brain today? Hmmm, okay I got it! No, not bear as in the cute coloring page I found for you, but Books! Yeah, Cathy how original is that? Okay, it’s not original. In fact, you may recall I posted Books! Books for Sale in our last time through.
