Why I Never Accomplish Anything

What a difficult time I'm having completing tasks today.

There is treasure everywhere!

Anyway. I opened up Pandora's Box, I mean my cedar chest, and OH the things I found.

I knew I had my "Good Night Richard Rabbit" book in a safe place, but I never came across it when packing (unless, of course, i blogged about finding it and have since forgotten i did, which is a distinct possibility in my frazzled state of mind.)

This was a favorite book in our family.

Richard Rabbit and his mother even ended up being featured in birthday posters of yore (i seem to be growing fond of the word 'yore').

I even remember reading this to my children and changing it a bit to say that there really IS an elephant in the room, but we don't talk about it. This would always make THGGM roll his eyes waaay back into his head.

Enough already.

When I think of it, I check Amazon.com for copies. Mine is in sad shape.

In the past I have found it in 'flip book' form. Those were and still are in the $60 range. But, I want a nice hardcover like this one.

Couldn't find one.

Although, there is a PAPERBACK going for somewhere in the $260 range.

I'll just be happy with the taped up copy that I have. I'm sure I have some white gloves somewhere that I can wear while turning the pages.
