Eldertalk | Book Acquisitions - Sept. 2020 @Eldertalk | Uploaded September 2020 | Updated October 2024, 11 hours ago.
It was inevitable... I could not help but buy more books this month even though I'm now homeless due to the forest fire that destroyed my home the night of September 8. What a terrible month it has been for myself and many of my neighbors. Over 150 homes lost in one day! Even my neighbors who didn't lose their homes are displaced, waiting for permission to go back into that neighborhood, half of which is incinerated. I'll speak of it more in the next video - but this one is just about the books I acquired in September 2020.
