I never thought I'd see the day when it took $50 to fill my Subaru gastank. That milestone came the week before last. Needless to say, I condense all my trips and skip most extra stops but round trip to work and one weekly trip to take care of my mother uses three-fourths of the tank. (Shaking my head.....)
I'm growing roots, both figuratively and literally, in the suburbs of southern Maine with Deus Ex Machina, our great kids, a flock of suburban chickens, some whacky ducks, and a herd of rabbits.
In this eminently practical and thoughtful book, Wendy Brown takes on the challenge of exploring the options for surviving and thriving through hard times in the suburbs, and carries it off with aplomb. Highly recommended!
The Gutenberg Project has compiled a database of some 30,000 books with expired copyrights, digitized them, and entered them into the public domain. These books are available for free download from the website.
If you missed reading the classics when you were in school, this is a good opportunity to get a free copy to read.
