At the moment it’s just a draft.
With that opening I want to let everyone know that we are starting a new Book Club in September. During the last Thursday of every month we will be meeting at 5 PM to discuss whatever book was chosen the previous month. Sue Loya will be leading this group and the first meeting will be to select a book for the group to read. Feel free to pop in a little early and grab a coffee.
I really do have a book I’m working on and I’ve recently decided to kill off some of characters in the book. It would definitely spice up my autobiography.
That reminds me about a mortician I knew that got in trouble for a raffle he was doing. Apparently it was a dead giveaway!
That’s the best I’ve got for transitioning into a discussion about our raffle at Lost and Found Pharmacy. We have our raffle basket fundraiser well under way with 48 different baskets you can try and win. Actually, our big prize is a basket with two tickets for the Steeler’s vs Giants game on October 28th. To add extra excitement for that basket there is a second and third place basket to be drawn as well. If you check out the slider below, you can see lots of great options.
