Tuesday Thoughts

We have a lot of books. (Even after leaving many in Vermont and giving away many more.)  They have been, and many still are, lying in rows on the floor in our bedroom.


This is/are the pile/the rows after we purchased a bookcase for a great deal of money from the furniture store that sold us most of our furniture, which books are remaining after filling the expensive bookcase downstairs.  I have not wanted to spend that money again.  My sister told us about bookcases made of rubber wood that were available on Amazon.  They are less than half what we paid before.

Dear One ordered one of those bookcases which came on Saturday.  We put it together.  Mostly him, but I was a third hand, off and on as needed!



This was a semi-fun project.  At least the anticipation of the end result was certainly wonderful.


There is much left to do to get the books installed in the bookcase but I am so encouraged at the progress we have made.  We have even decided that some of our books can remain in storage for a while...!

In the interest of full disclosure...nearly everything on the bookcase currently is about knitting, sewing, quilting, cooking.  There is still the topic of watercolor, which books will get onto a shelf soon.  Dear One's contributions are on top of the bookcase!
