What I did today

A friend of a friend who is a cabinetmaker has made built-in bookshelves for my bedroom and will be installing them on Monday. These will give me more space, plus they have the advantage of not falling down and crushing my skull in an earthquake. (I tried finding the wall studs but never could, so I haven't been able to tether my shelves to the wall.) So today, I unloaded the bookshelves that have been occupying that space for the last three and a half years: about half of the books I own.

( Why a Kindle is looking more and more attractive. )

On the agenda for tomorrow: moving two bookshelves out of the house, moving a breakfront, moving another shelf where the breakfront was, and moving the dresser to the foot of my bed until the built-ins are put into place on Monday. Also, vacuuming.

I'm tired just thinking about it.
