Just kidding. I know it's 2023, but early this year I got a new laptop. My blog info was open on a tab on my old laptop, and even though I've thought about it many times, I just didn't get around to figuring out the blog link on the new computer till today. Even then I fired up the old laptop to find it. I knew that would be easiest.
And there it was.
And here it is now since I emailed the link to myself. So, I'm on my new laptop writing this because the old computer is just so foreign to me now. Isn't that funny how that happens? We freak out about change then to consider changing back isn't comfortable either. Oh well.
But enough of that. I have actually found quite a bit of moolah this year. Let me see how much.
Okay, I'm back. I had to count it. So far this year I've found $20.32 US. Yippee! I also found 3 foreign coins: 2 Mexican $2 coins and an Israeli 10 cent coin (a shekel?). I don't remember where I found it but I'm pretty sure it's the first coin I've found from Israel. I know I found it before the madness began there. So very very sad.
I've been reading the latest Ann Cleeves' book, The Raging Storm. It's good, like her others, but it's taking me F-O-R-E-V-E-R to finish it. In fact, I only have about 30 pages left and I think when I hit publish here, I'm going to grab it and read whodunit. I really don't know who it is.
So, what about you? What are you reading? And more importantly, have you found any money this year?
