dusting
because my blog is dusty. i am a negligent blogger as of late. what is my problem? get it together! i finished a book called “the dew breaker”, amazing, set in haiti. will need to post on that. almost done with the first “percy jackson and the olympians” book. i guess i should update my “what i’m currently reading” page. need to start reading friends’ books i’ve had for months. maybe then i can finally finish the books that i own like “under the dome” and “shiver”. this makes me feel extremely behind. probably not a good idea that i just bought another book at sam’s club. why have i been recently buying tons of books from sam’s? seems odd. i’ve absolutely decided to entertain the idea of opening my own small bookstore. trying to determine my niche. maybe i’ll do posts on that journey as well. i’ve become comfortable incorporating the words loquacious, garrulous, laconic, and taciturn into conversations. and so glad i didn’t get a kindle after seeing the iPad. sorry about the word vomit.
complete!
yes, i know i’ve been as absent as fat on a victoria’s secret model. now that that’s out of the way…look at my completed new shelves!! and i got the antique ladder for christmas! thanks dad and tj 🙂
library again :)
soooooo, i was trying to text and call my husband today but he never responded…all day. which was weird since he was off work. i started to actually worry that something might be wrong so my texts became more frantic, like “if you’re just busy building my shelves, let me know cuz i’m freaking out”. the joksters that my husband and dad are, they sent me this picture of my dad in response:
then they sent me this one!!!!!!!!!!!!!
a little paint and a lotta books and that’s all she wrote 🙂
another library update!
my dad and husband were busy today! i’m getting really excited 🙂
should be done tomorrow!
library update
i officially suck at blogtoberfest. i’m scraping the bottom of the bucket. anyway, i found DIY instructions for building floor to ceiling shelves. my library is so on its way now. these particular instructions seem very easy with minimal damage to the walls. and judging by the pictures, they seem to be sturdy enough to withstand the weight of a rediculous amount of books–superb.

my future library
so i’m getting pretty serious about turning one of my walls into my own personal library: shelves floor to ceiling. i’m thinking floating shelves. this is my victim:
the bookend.
