Preparations for a new year
Today I went to Borders to get myself a magnificent new diary - a day to a page.
Unfortunately there was also a book sale on (as there always is) and, although I have sworn to myself that I am not going to buy any more books until I've made some more progress in diminishing the TBR pile, I succumbed...
I also bought myself a new laptop bag on a trip to Staples a couple of days ago (to get a planner for 2008)
which has pockets not only for my laptop (so I can write anywhere)
but also my new ipod touch (my much-treasured Christmas present).
Life seems sweet.

Lovely purchases. I've had a few similar moments myself in the past few days. I think you will enjoy On Chesil Beach, and it will only take you a couple of hours to read so will not impede your dents to the reading pile too much!
Happy New Year!!!! I am so glad that we met!
Happy New Year Clare from sweltering Melbourne.
I notice you have Mr Pip in the pile of books. I read it yesterday and very much liked it. It was one of the books I selected when I was claiming a book voucher I received for Christmas.
Happy New Year!
In honor of your tagging me earlier this year...see my second post for January 1.

Happy New Year, dear Clare--I hope your 2008 is full of pleasant surprises.
OK that means I'd better stay as far away from Borders as possible while I'm in the City tomorrow or my bank manager and I are going to have a falling out.
Happy New Year to all of you too! And Maxine and Anne - looking forward to these two books very much now you've recommended...
Bonne Année to everyone, now with the I-Pod Touch you will be able to post at anytime the comments of trips or moments of your life from anywhere !
