They are huge and heavy. Do you think you'll ever settle in one place?

I have been living back-and-forth between the US and India for the last 10 years, and the most difficult part of my packing is always the books. I am a compulsive book-buyer, so I have a never-ending pile of books that need to be read, and I hate not being able to carry all of them with me. Kindle has made my nomadic lifestyle a little easier, but I love curling up in bed with a book and flipping the pages. I would love to one day have a collection like J, but I think I need to settle on one place in order for that to happen! :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13002419613158475211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2556494314801577420.post-42014779716539149582015-08-18T17:16:48.549-07:002015-08-18T17:16:48.549-07:00I know just what you mean!

I moved from New Orleans back "home" and we have been regretting it. I see another move on the horizon but I don't know when and the life we've tried to build here is just not working. Anyway, just wanted you to know you touched on something there.<br /><br />I love the bookshelf! Although I don't want to accumulate books there is something so comforting about having them all lined up like that. I have seen bookshelves organized by color and it's so beautiful!Mindy Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01237144478337679738noreply@blogger.com
