Today I finished packing up the books from Greg’s apartment and the Metafilter Book Exchange.
The tally was 362 softcover books that ranged from fiction to self-help, from computer programming to Buddhism and mystical Gnosticism.
The woman at the Books to Women in Prison offices seemed really excited by them! I think that they usually get things that are a little more mundane and this helped round out what they have to send out.
There are another 188 hardcover books that are going to be donated to the Unique Thrift store down the street – the funds that Unique collects are used to help disabled Veterans.
As it is, I had a hard afternoon with it. I got everything together and took them over in grocery bags and realized that one more layer of this estate process is peeled away.
Speaking of Metafilter, just a quick thanks for your last year`s bluetooth mic/dragon dictate workaround using linein and soundflower. I saw it on Ask Metafilter, but the thread was closed so I rode a few links and thought I`d stick my head in here. I found the post right off the bat, got my handsfree working great after initially thinking I`d be out of luck. That saved me how many hours of fiddling and phoning and head scratching I`ll never know. Thanks again.
