Library Loot: March 2 – March 8

Library Loot is a weekly event co-hosted by Claire from The Captive Reader and Marg from The Adventures of an Intrepid Reader that encourages bloggers to share the books they’ve checked out from the library. If you’d like to participate, just write up your post-feel free to steal the button-and link it using the Mr. Linky any time during the week. And of course check out what other participants are getting from their libraries!

Claire has Mr Linky this week

The loot this week was small. One book and three DVD.

The video at top represents one of the DVD. Coincidentally I sent for The Music Man a few weeks ago after discovering, while prepping for Library Loot, the videos on YouTube for both the 1960s version and the 2000s version of the Marion the Librarian segment of this classic musical. I sent for both of them. The 2003 version staring Mathew Broderic and Kristin Chenowith from Netflix which has come and gone and the first one staring Shirley Jones and Robert Preston from the library.

I just hope that after watching this one the 76 Trombones song does not play in my head endlessly for days and days until I'm chewing on my tongue and boxing my own ears in attempts to shut it up.

The second DVD is Jesus in India

A documentary that speculates that a young Jesus traveled via caravan to India and spent some time studying Buddhism before returning to start his ministry.







The third DVD is season 3 of House MD












The book is Teaching Yourself Visually Crocheting

I seem to learn things involving all three dimension better by a combination of pictures or video or watching someone else do it and then hands on experimenting on my own. When instruction is text only without pictures I struggle to figure out what is meant and have to painstakingly visualize it move by move before attempting to do it myself. So I'm hoping this book will help me with some of the difficulty I'm still having reading patterns.



Now that's something of an eclectic selection.
