I'm falling into bad habits and not posting again, and I told myself I'd do better! I'll see if I can find some more Pros-y snippets to post from the viewing notes - and I swear I'll try to write some more - but for now, a follow-up post to the post I made the other day. This is what I effectively designed the furnishing of my new place around... Bookshelves. *g*
Not just one, but three bookcases within reach of my bed... *g*
...and an empty shelf left to fill! *g*
My main non-fiction bookshelves. I do love my encyclopaedias... You don't have to worry about what google thinks you want to know, you can just look up an article... they're kind of like dictionaries that way... but more! *g*
the second bookcase is mostly hitory books... actually the top shelf is still unsorted. Actually there are photo albums under the encyclopaedias, but I reckon they count as books. *g*
And finally, more non-fiction on these tall white bookcases. The one on the left is travel and poetry and music and astronomy and practical things - a bit of a mish-mash. The one next to me I love - it's my writing bookcase, with all the books that are useful (or going to be useful) for various bits and bobs that I'm writing or meaning to write, and a row of folders with things in that I am writing... oh okay, you can't see that one, it's low down so I can just turn to it and grab them. *g* Actually there are shelves on the other side of me at my desk too, but they're all work stuff - oh, and some family history books. Ha - and some old writing on the very top, waiting for me to brave it. Really old writing... *g*
In front of my desk are two low bookcases that were donated by the former tenant - of course I couldn't let her throw them away! The one on the left is my To Be Read bookcase (including library and bookgroup books top left) and the other has some of my favourite books that I unpacked first and just happened to land on that shelf. Patrick O'Brian down the bottom, in a lovely long swoosh of shelf... *g*
I'm still prettifying (clearly!) but I do love my bookshelves... *g*
