Wow am I exhausted!

Delivered 4 boxes and two bags of books to the Women's Prison Book Project (thanx to magenta for the tip). I estimate about 300 books, all in the non-fsf category. The huge tippy pile of books at the top of the stairs is gone and there are even 2 or 3 half empty shelves! Vast amounts of dust was vacuumed up, and at least 3 bookcases in this house now have no double stacked books.

Not only that, I found three books I have been trying to find for years! And two books belonging to other people, one of which I have returned.

I'm not sure why this was such exhausting work. I guess a lot of bending and reaching, getting up and getting down, and running up and down stairs looking for vacuum cleaner attachments and empty boxes.

Any way, a good weekend's work.

Congrats and great work! I think I will find something to get rid of today too. Actually, I already know I'm getting rid of some stuff because I am handing over the materials for our fall vegetable plant sale to a couple of enthusiastic MGs this afternoon. So that will be a few bags of stuff gone.

It's an amazingly fulfilling feeling, isn't it?
