Losing Another Audiobook Source!

7 December 2017 / Random / , , ,

Sadly, another one of the libraries I have a card to has chosen to drop a source of audiobooks!

This is the second library card that will not have access anymore to Hoopla.

The other libraries have been dropping audiobooks from the service, but this is the 2nd one to abandon it all together. I have heard mention that a library is charged for each download through the site. Apparently the amount of downloads for audiobooks is to the level that the act of dropping only those, makes it affordable? I don’t know.

Out of all of my Library memberships, only 2 were still supporting Audiobooks through the Hoopla program, and now as of January 1, 2018, I will only have 1. 🙁 

Hoopla’s format is not my favorite by far, but they do seem to get new releases before even Audible for series and authors I listen to. 

Fingers crossed, the one solo hoopla account will hold!

My computer issues are in hand…Hopefully!

My computer issues are up to date, hopefully for at least a little while! lol. 

If this thing will hold together long enough for me to get caught up on my reviews, I’ll be happy!

Look for the reviews to come flying as well as the Read Alongs!

Thanks for everyone’s patience!

Yall Rock!

Got to reteach auto-correct!

Got a new phone and have to reteach it my potty mouth! 🙂

Makes for some even more interesting texts than normal as it learns!

I still don’t know how it got tampons out of what I said, but it works really hard to make me sound like I’m having a stroke!

I’ve had to resort to emojis for milk or I end up with “glad of milf” despite never of using any of those words ever, except when it changes it! 

Who Else Has Their Tickets For Star Wars?

Who Else Has Their Tickets?

Bought my tickets yesterday, right after the new trailer played across the nation! Got mine at a Cinemark Theater that has reserved recliner seating! It doesn’t cost more for them either! It’s the best way to see a movie in a theater. Plenty of room and the reclining angel rocks!

Warning
Forgetting can make you look silly!

Don’t forget your bag. That you sat on the floor after you reclined. And then ask your party what are you doing wrong as you exclaim “my chair is broken” because it won’t go back to its upright position. To which your husband reaches under your chair and pulls said bag out. 🙂

This is my own opinion. I’m not paid in any way. The seats just rock! If you are going to pay over ten dollars a person to see a movie and that’s not including that bag of popcorn and a drink you also pick up, you might as well be comfortable!

Plus its reserved seating, so you don’t have to get there many hours early to get a good seat!
