When we moved this fall, all the books on my bookcases were jumbled and out of order. We were more concerned about getting the things we needed for daily life in order. And then, with starting a new job... I spent all my spare time learning what I needed for my job and learning how to live independently. Well, with the snowfall this week, I have had the time to catch up on all the things I needed to do (and I got over having the flu as well!!)... So... Today, I had the luxury of time and managed to knock a couple things off my to-do list. Primary among those were re-doing the bookcases. Books are now arranged by topic and placed so my most used books are handiest.
Pictures of the bookshelves follow.
Books were piled up as they were taken off the shelves.
