No doubt, some of my friends would easily agree with that statement and happily offer to make the phone calls to Shep-Pratt or Spring Grove to get the ball rolling, but that's not the type of commitment I mean. I made a note on one of my sites that I had too many blogs and that too many of them were dying on the vine, so to speak. So, I chopped off the head of one, dumped most of the entries on another and will be actively contemplating the death of several others (or at least consider the combination of several in to one). Their time has come to be assimilated.
Spring cleaning mode has hit the bookshelves in my house - I'm using LibraryThing to catalog the books and decisions are being made as to which shall make the cut and which shall be banished to yard sales and thrift shops. Some of them may actually get added to the listings I keep up on PaperBackSwap, just in case someone there may be interested. I have an order to these things, you see. First choice is to actually make money from them, so some of them will go along to our community yard sale tomorrow. Those that remain tomorrow night will be sorted into piles based on their ability to appeal to anyone and I'm thinking of adding a book sale list to my local website so that my neighbors can pick any that they may want for a nominal sum. Third choice then becomes listing them on PaperBackSwap and converting them into other books, though I'd rather not add a lot of additional books to the piles that already exist here. Final destination, mostly for the hard backs, will be the local thrift shop where the will become a tax write-off.
