This is the 26th week of the year, so we are halfway through 2012. That means that I should be halfway finished getting my house organized, but unfortunately, I seem to be finding more and more that needs to be done. My organizing reminds me of the Lewis Carroll quote, “The hurrier I go, the behinder I get.”
This week for my mission I worked on my books. I love all kinds of books, and I have to admit that I probably have more than I need. I wanted to get my cookbooks organized all in one place and to go through my other books and get rid of some that I no longer wanted.
After a lot of sorting and organizing I finally have a bookcase that is just for my cookbooks.
I did some major sorting and a lot of dusting, where does all that dust come from?

Bless you! Books are my true downfall and I have SO many I could probably open my own library! LOL! I have sort of organized mine which means I have grouped like books together. I did clean out a glass door bookcase in my bedroom and it is going to be for "the keepers". As I read the books they will either go in the keeper bookcase or out the door to the thrift or the library or maybe sell on Amazon. I have promised myself that once that bookcase is full that's it! Check back with me in a year and see how I'm doing! LOL! Of course, that doesn't include cookbooks…heavens no!
You did a great job and it looks so nice and yes….where does all that dust come from?

It looks great! I have so many cookbooks and have such a hard time not buying more. I really need to organize my cookbooks as well.

I'm sure books multiply in the dark of the night! Did I really buy all those books??
