365 things to do in Worcester County - Visit book store in Millbury Blackstone Shopping Plaza.  Ok, so this one is not necessarily something one would do in Millbury at the Blackstone Shopping Plaza or any where specific in Worcester County.  But it is a fun way to spend an afternoon or a day. Reading has become a guilty pleasure for many of us.  This is because our lives are so hectic that a few precious hours curled up with a good book is so pleasurable that it makes me feel almost guilty.  I typically pick up a book late at night when I am too tired to do anything else.

365 things to do in Worcester County - Back to School Shopping in Millbury Walmart -Today my family kidnapped me away from my work so that I could join them for a family outing to go to "back to school shopping".  My daughters and my husband made lists of supplies that they needed.  Leanne who is going to school, had not only note books, pens, and other supplies you would expect but also bedding, bathing and laundry items.  It felt like she was starting her own house hold.  The only thing I'm confused about is why everything had to be in the color green?

Why Buy Real Estate? July Pending Home Sales are down in Millbury, Massachusetts but.... The July 2010 average & median price for the pending home sales in Millbury improved in comparison to the figures from July of 2009.
