About My Library
In September of 2005 our house burned down & most of my library w/it 1000's of books & NG mags. My Tolkien was elsewhere, thank goodness. Since then I've been rebuilding my library by prowling the used bookstores & 2nd hand stores. I now have nearly 600 books & my book shelves are stuffed. That does not mean i shall quit buying books however! Mainly I have earth science, history, & of course fantasy in my collection. I also collect rocks, minerals, post cards, non-bear Beanies, dragons, turkeys & lots of dust! As I now live in an apartment my space is somewhat limited mainly by the number of bookshelves i now own, but am working on expanding my capacity. I am closing down the rented storage unit i have rented for the past several years as i have a smaller & cheaper storage space here in the complex-but am taking some books, which i have recently declared excess, to a booksale the local YMCA has held as a fund raiser for the past 40+ years. Since i originally acquired them @ said sale it seems appropriate to take them back there. Of course it goes w/o saying that i will find some books at the sale which i will bring to live w/me for a while anyway. Right now i am reading a lot of books about the Middle Ages in general & the 12th Century in particular.
About Me
I am 70, retired & enjoying it & now since my house move (14 mos. ago)i do seem to get a lot more reading done than when i was working. I was a home health care worker & a cannery worker & substitite teacher. My teaching certificate was in History/Earth Science/Political Science, however now i am only certified for subbbing (for life). I had read mainly non-fiction until the last 10 yrs. When I discovered Fantasy (Tolkien, Lewis, Pullman, Pratchett etc.) I live by myself in an apartment in eastern Washington state in Yakima, a city of about 85,000. I find that i enjoy city life as everything in the city is acessible by public transport. Having no one else in the household lets me do as i wish on my own schedule w/o depending on anyone else or on their schedules. My car has been sitting in the same spot for the last 5 mos. & i am going to sell it.
