Clearing Out Books

I thought I'd better check in before my readers (both of them) would think I'd fallen off the face of the earth. Really don't have much to say. After months of procrastinating, I have finally begun to tackle the awesome job of clearing out some of the books that I've acquired over 65 years of buying. In the last couple of days I've managed to fill three boxes. Tomorrow I will haul them off to a used book dealer. No doubt he will give me a pittance for them. It's bad enough to leave the offsspring to make a decision about when I should die. But to leave them the chore of unloading all of these books...well, that would be unforgiveable. I must admit, though, that I have handled books that I haven't even seen for years. That was Kind of fun. Hopefully I will continue to pursue this task day after day until I have a handle on the accumulation; I never would call it a collection. I will report later on how well I do.
