Good-bye books

I go through phases where everything in my life feels cluttered.  I look around and I have TOO. MANY. THINGS.

Books.

I'm thinning them out.

I love my books.

But I had a good talk with myself several times over the past month.  I said, "Self?  Why are you holding onto those books?"

I had answers, lots of them.

I have so many books on my "To Read" list (yes, I have an actual list in a small notebook that I carry around, adding too and crossing off as life goes on).
I was a little sad pulling them from the shelf.  What if I regret letting them go?  In those pages are people and places and events that I know and have been and was part of.  But the reality is that I'll never go back to those same pages.

I have too many new pages to explore.

Day 11 - Something Fun

I really wanted to take a picture of an airplane taking off.  I really didn't have the time to get over to the airport after work though.  Traveling is the most fun thing there is.

Instead I went shopping.  I needed fun accessories for my fun clothes I'm going to wear to Vegas in May.  All this for $35.  Of course it will probably all fall apart after the first time I wear them (or while I wear them).

Day 7 - Something New

I just got these ballet flats today.
The tattoo is from January when I was in AZ.
