Books Galore

Monday to Friday positively flew by.  The end of June has been heralded by heavy rain.  We are actually past the mid-summer day mark and we're yet to have more than the odd day of sunshine or warm weather.  As I cast an eye out of the patio window, I see blanket grey/white cloud and wafting tree branches being shot at... by heavy rain.

So work was busy, and frustrating at times, but it was fine.  Friday I had my BP test, blood test and an ECG.  BP was fine, (now that I'm on meds,) just have to wait for the results of the others, I've been worried about the ECG for weeks but probably won't get the results for another few weeks and so the wait goes on.

Did I tell you that I'm totally taken with any "Hoarders" programmes?  Particularly love the American ones.  Not only does it make me feel better, but it inspires me, pushes me on if you will, (did I just say; "if you will"?)  Anyway, I feel like I'm taking de-cluttering to a higher level, an Olympic sport even.  Every time I watch an episode, I feel claustrophobic and so much better about my own mess.  This weekend, I have bagged up six carrier bags worth of books and magazines.  I love both, magazines and books, but my reading time is currently as I go to bed and you can guarantee, as soon as I climb into my nest, I just want to close my eyes and catch the sleeper to nod.

So books, my books, other peoples books which I have somehow become custodian of, books as far as the eye can see.  Two hours and six carrier bags later and that's how much extra space I have created.  Feels good.
