I have to say the "shelf eyrie" intrigues me despite its inconvenience - if only for the fact that Hubby would find it impossible to pile miscellaneous objects in front of my bookshelves the way he does now. :-)Diane Hendershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07563115165301223420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8689245642139665514.post-59838056385964478402013-05-15T00:40:21.217-06:002013-05-15T00:40:21.217-06:00I can get rid of things, just not books.
