Forgot to mention!

I was almost the proud owner of a complete, leather bound, 2nd edition of Jane Austen's works! Drat. My parents were at an estate auction looking for furniture for their new house and 2 sets of Jane's works were up. The bidding went for more than they were willing to spend, but they did think of me! Oh if only... A girl can still dream though. Hopefully next time the opportunity arises I will be that lucky girl!

Oh. . .! How nice that they did think of you. I'm so sorry that the bidding went up so high. My goodness, it would be incredible just to SEE those books, let alone own them! :) Whoever got them is awesomely lucky.

I know! I would love to see them in person. My Mom said the person who got them was sitting right next to her and seemed fairly determined. Oh well, it's the thought that counts and Mom said she was thinking of me and knew I would be in heaven to see them!
