I am moving from Garland, TX to Jacksonville, AL on July 1st and therefore I am exhaustedly packing and cleaning up my house. I just did this two years ago - I can’t believe we are moving again - so soon!

We are going to buy a nice house in view of the Talladega National Forest and near all of my husband’s relatives.

This afternoon I am in the middle of packing up all of my precious books. I find this so hard. Hard. Hard. Hard. I have been putting it off, telling my husband that I needed to organize them first….right! I believe I just didn’t want to do it.

My books are my soul - and you want me to put my soul in a box? What? A box?

This is definitely difficult. Silly, I know, but, my soul just doesn’t belong in a box. Nope. Nope. Nope.

I can’t wait until we get there and I can take them all out and organize them in a new and wonderful way - knowing where each lovely one rests on the shelf. That part will indeed be fun, but, to have them in boxes - that part is just sad.

I am indeed a book-lover.

And I just don’t want my books in boxes!

Well, I had better get back to it now…ugh…

GO READ A BOOK!
