Dear Booksharian Friends,

I'd like to thank those of you who showed your quality by not judging or 
name-calling when Amber expressed frustration at not being able to contact me 
about the books I'd bought and paid to ship to her. 

We were both making dreams come true and under time constraints, she to pack 
and move to Arizona and a well-deserved job, and me to research, buy, prepare 
for, hire transport for and then to care for a 7 week Papillion puppy named 
Pippin. We were passing each other in transit. We only needed a few words to 
decide about the books and affirm our friendship.

It's too expensive for us to do anything but donate the books, but I still have 
a houseful and Have always been thrilled about Amber's wonderful career 
opportunity. Library book sale season is starting tomorrow in Akron so Amber 
and I will have no shortage of projects to work on together once she's settled 
and I finish a mammoth book of hers that I'm working on now.

I appreciate those of you who had helpful suggestions for Amber and those who 
quietly let the situation resolve itself. I don't read list mail every day but 
I do answer my phone. It was just unusual for the line to be busy while I was 
talking to vets, puppy care providers, breeders, friends, trainers, and the 
nice couple who own Pippin's mother and his father, Delilah and Dapper Dan. 
It's wonderful that this time it was adopting a puppy and not illness that made 
me hard to reach.

I trust everyone here will make it a practice to react to posts with kindness, 
so volunteers will want to join us and remain active with us. 

Always with love,

Lissi
