Well, that didn't take very long at all... Admittedly, there aren't a lot of books in the bedroom, but I was able to get rid of a few. The one thing I am noticing, is that I'm finding books tucked away that I have been meaning to read for a while. They get hidden behind this and that, and I end up forgetting about them. The trick is to have them out there, visible where I can see them and remember that I want to read them!
I haven't actually done a recent tabulation of how many books I have that I've been meaning to read. Last time I checked, it was around 30... sigh... So, no more book buying for me! I need to take enough books with me on a trip to ensure that I don't end up in some airport bookstore buying another book or two! Mind you, those are the ones that I do tend to read quickly but still... I'll just "buy" some from my own bookstore!
The one thing I'm noticing is I need some empty boxes pretty quick! I have a few stacks of decluttered books sitting around and I need to get them out of the house before they just migrate to some other spot.
My ongoing to-declutter list from June 1 is always being updated... I'm still trying to get it up to 100!
