I'm also something of a book person. My aunt and uncle have thousands of books. I'm getting closer. I guess I'm currently about a thousand or so pages behind on my reading. Of course, I have dozens of books that I inherited but haven't tried to read. I recently bought a couple of books on sale at Books-a-Million's website. I'll get to them at some point.
Thank you! I am so excited by it. I have things I want to remodel. I am addicted to DIY stuff. My tool box is awesome!
I know what you mean about not needing to have the newest and best of everything as I get older. I find myself talking to friends who make less than half of what I do but who keep acquiring more toys than I do. Instead, I'm working hard to own my house free and clear.
Yeah, I have friends like that too. I don't understand them, but if they're happy more power to them. My toys are pretty simple, except when I get the wild hair to purchase another gun. hehe

I understand. I set aside time each evening for "rika time". I can read, play with the dog, sit and relax. I work some long days, so I look forward to that time to set and be still. Have you looked into ebooks? Instant gratification and tons of options, and they take up less space. I am partial to www.ebookwise.com and www.fictionwise.com. I blow my book budget every month, good thing I pad it!
