This is NOT me - it's Prim's pic of Lighe's Aunt Ermyngarde. Nice, ain't it? :D

I decided on a Spring Clean.

pattilovesviggo will tell you what my house is like. There is not room for as much as a small paperback book, here. I cannot count how many shelves of books there are. One day I'll count"

So, feeling virtuous, I gor rid of - 2 computer monitors, a toaster, 21 videos, two duvets and covers and pillows and cases and a toaster to our freecycle group. I listed for sale, a throw and a sewing basket, two more throws and a bag of kitchen stuff - some free, some for a moderate charge, in my local paper.

As I was listing in the freecycle Yahoo group, I noticed someone had BOOKS for free. Being me, I applied, and today I took ownership of 4 banana boxes of books, the earliest published in 1899, and she (the donor) is bringing me 5 more boxes next week.

So now I have a floor full of books, (300) and nowhere to put them. Well, there are the two shelves Rich has just cleared for me in the pantry!

As LSR would say (and I quote) "What are you like?"

I'm like me - and I like BOOKS!!

"My name is Ruth, and I am a Book Addict" This is very true, and no joke, believe me! But I still make myself laugh. Can't help it!
