Our 2012 Used Book Sale

by | Aug 1, 2012 | Book Sale | 39 comments

It’s time for another Online Curriculum Sale Blog Hop!   You can find all the details, browse books for sale on other blogs, or add a link to your own post here.

I wasn’t sure that I would have much to sell this year, but sure enough, once I finally got started decluttering my book shelves, I ended up with quite a pile! If you are interested in purchasing any of the books listed, please leave a comment listing the books you would like, along with your email address, and I will send you your total, with shipping, along with my PayPal info. (If you’d rather not leave your email address, you can email me directly at jessica(dot)showerofroses(at)gmail(dot)com.)

I will be out of the house each afternoon this week, at swimming lessons, but will respond to requests in the order that they are received.  Shipping will be $3.50 for 1-2 items and $5.00 for 3 or more, to cover the cost of packaging and media rate in the continental U.S. If you end up ordering a lot of books, or you would like the books mailed elsewhere, I will get back to you with the actual shipping costs.

              Thanks! PS Did you watch the Olympics last night? I remember you said you were doing an Olympic study. Anyway, the mom of Jordyn Wieber (US Women's gymnastics) held her rosary beads the entire time of the competition while she was in the stands!

              And how awesome about the Olympics! We have been doing a Unit Study, but have been very frustrated with how little we have been able to watch online. We don't have cable, or even any local channels, so rely on the internet completely for the Olympics. NBC has made it incredibly hard for people like us. 🙂 I'll have to see if I can find a clip to show the kids.

              I rather your family have it, paypal supports planned parenthood so I try not to deal with them to much.

              Just let me know either way is fine:)

              If you have money in your Paypal account, and don't pay with a credit card, you can actually transfer money without part of it being taken to pay for the fees!

              To do so you just select the Transfer tab and select the appropriate option. By default, the ‘Buy’ tab is active. You need to change that to avoid PayPal fees. Doing this ensures that neither you nor the person for whom the payment is intended is charged any fees.

              However, if it is easier for you, a check is perfectly fine too. Just let me know which you'd like to do. I have your books all boxed up for you! 🙂

            Prayer of Mothers

            Father in heaven, grant me the grace to appreciate the dignity which you have conferred on me. Let me realize that not even the Angels have been blessed with such a privilege—to share in your creative miracle and bring new Saints to heaven. Make me a good mother to all my children after the example of Mary, the Mother of your Son. Through the intercession of Jesus and Mary I ask your continued blessings on my family. Let us all be dedicated to your service on earth and attain the eternal happiness of your kingdom in heaven. Amen.

            A Little About Me

            Hi! I'm Jessica, a Roman Catholic wife and home educating mother to our nine children. I was home educated myself, along with my eleven younger siblings. I have a special devotion to St. Therese, through whom I have been given much help and many blessings--the beautiful "Shower of Roses" that she has sent my way! Here I will record a few of the blessings I treasure. Please remember that what you see here is just a little glimpse at our lives, so please say a prayer for us, as we continue to strive for holiness.
