Two New Books

What an exhilarating day today ! It started with playing golf. When I returned home at about 2:45pm I had lunch and visited with Sandy and Coco. At 6:00pm I met a friend at a local bookstore chain. I bought two books from the Bargain Books section and found a couple others that I'd like to buy sometime in the future. One is by David McCullough called "Truman". I like the way he writes and tells the life story of historic figures. I loved his book called "John Adams" which they eventually made into a movie which was also excellent. I will also get an updated dictionary and Thesaurus and a current Slang dictionary some day. We spent 2 hours looking at books. There were so many choices, it was hard to choose. I purchased a leather bound book of Jane Austen stories and a book about Yoga. The Yoga book is to help with flexibility and balance. Two areas I need help with as I get older. I also have a pilates ball which I can work with when I do exercises at home. I think that the best thing to do would be to play golf at least one time a week. I'd pay as much to attend WW as I'd pay to play golf if I opted to walk instead of riding. That would be more fun also. I can't believe how great I felt today finally getting the long needed exercise I got.
