Welcome to Litsy!

#Readathon just finished and I am oficially asleep. Lovely weekend, great reads!

My make work project the last 2 days! Everything (but a select few) is organized by author, series or publication date. What a job 🤯. I‘m really glad I did it though, cause now I have all my books in the shelves (none in boxes behind the chair anymore lol)! This will hopefully make my buying ban easier cause I can literally just go grab something & start to read, something I haven‘t really been able to do in a few years tbh! 📚💖🤯🎶

It was SUPER slow at the library today, so I worked on organizing my goodreads. Of course I just saw stuff I missed. 🙄 I added “own” and “to purchase” shelves mostly because of Litsy swaps! They only have the books I‘d previously added to goodreads, but it‘s a start!
How do you (or don‘t you) organize your goodreads?

Squeaked it in just under the wire! Such a dense book but so interesting. I‘m not sure how much I‘ll actually retain but I found myself nodding along emphatically with each new revelation. Also, I love this example demonstrating that correlation does not mean causation. Though I now blame global warming on pirates.

Desperately trying to finish off all my in-progress books before the end of the year and I‘m down to one left... I only have about 200 pages to go but Bookout says it‘ll take me 8 hours since I‘m averaging 2.3 min/page. I think I‘ll be able to squeeze it in, but just barely.

Excuse my handwriting but I wrote down this weeks pic challenges because guess what? I keep forgetting and hate going through my pictures everyday! 😅

Why can‘t my mind remember things besides grabbing my book before I leave the house?!? 😂🤣

A day late on getting my #DecemberTBR picked... It‘s a big stack with two TBRs from last month, a #ListyBuddyRead, 14 from my Scribd pile (3 audios, 5 from last month, 6 new for this month), one new pre-2017 TBR as I continue to try to #readmyowndamnbooks and a Christmas book that I‘ll definitely be picking up. I worked it out - if I can read 189 pages a day, I can make it through them all!

The books are about to get shelved! My favorite part of moving! I have a library here, and I'm so excited about it! It's not huge, but there IS enough room for a few more shelves in it!

Dear Goodreads,
"Select all" should mean ALL, not just the first 30.

Signed,
Annoyed.

I've been seeing these Goodreads Shelves organization posts... here's my 2 cents... these aren't totally accurate since I sometimes forget about a category I've created, but they give a rough idea. ☺️#goodreads #goodreadsshelves @dariazeoli

Let's give a huge Litsy shout-out to the woman of the day, @BookishMarginalia ‼️It is due to Gloria's amazing organizational skill and generosity with her time and talent that over 400 of us have big smiles on our faces today! Many, many thanks to the heart and mind behind #SummerSantaGoesPostal! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🎉🎉🎉💕💕😍

I love this TBR space in the new apartment! It's still not done yet (I'll finish filling up the shelves tomorrow because let's be real I need an entire bookshelf for my TBR stack, none of that artful half-empty nonsense here), but I love the fairy lights and the lineup on the dresser. It all looks so cozy.

I don't journal,but my planner could basically be one because it contains my whole life. In addition to any appointments, it has: my weekly meal plan; what I'm reading at any given time; birthdays/anniversaries; and a general to do list for every day. It's a giant scrawling mess- mainly because I just use whatever pen is nearby to write things down. #notebooksjournals #riotgrams

Ready for some light bedtime reading! #talknerdytome

I really liked this one. It's not Real Simple if that's what you're looking for. But it does discuss how your brain functions and how to work with it to be more organized. It improved my abilities to stay on top of my job. It isn't perfect - last part dragged a bit. But overall I found it to be really useful.

Look what Macy's is using to sell shoes.

Booklover problems: moving to another city, 5 boxes already filled with books (half of the box or they'll get too heavy😳😓) and still not nearly enough! In comparison.. my clothes and shoes will probably fit in 2 boxes 😆

That's what you get for moving on 😆 but I'm ecxited to start over ❤️
