Among quite a few compulsions, my mania for books is one of the more joyful ones.
There are floor to ceiling shelves on two living room walls in our home, all filled with books.
There is a jammed bookcase in my bedroom. More books are piled on the little table near my bed because there's no room in the bookcase.
There's a basket of books inside the closet on the floor.
My home office has, let's see, three bookcases, all overflowing with books.
So what did I do last weekend? I attended a library book sale!
Drove to the town the where the sale was located and marched right into that library and stomped into the basement auditorium where the sale was being held.
Despite twinges of guilt for even being there, it was great fun.
I've promised myself it would be done this spring and today's only March 24th so there's plenty of time.
Books, like old friends, just grow on you and you become attached.
And it's sooooo hard to say goodbye.
DO YOU LOVE BOOKS?
DO YOU HAVE A LOT IN YOUR HOME? HOW DO YOU WEED THEM OUT?
