That was the result of moving out of my house and running out of time. I didn't have the chance to put them in any kind of order. They still aren't after just moving them to a new storage unit closer to me, but at least since they're closer I can now go over and work on organizing them somehow now. Soon, I'm hoping! Oh, LauraD, what I'd give to have a three-story tower to get my books even closer to me! I sure do miss those bookshelves I had in my previous garage. That was absolute heaven! I would have loved to have met your grandpa. Sounds like he was a very interesting person! I know, Holly. The joke around here is I'm going to live to be at least 200 to get them all read! But I've now got some books on audio, so when I reorganize them, those books will go, and I'm sure there are others that won't hold my interest after all this time. LOL, we should have a contest guessing how many books I'll actually be able to cull out when it's all said and done! In that mountain, Marg, I didn’t find anything!

No joke, Gwen! All of those books used to be in bookshelves I had built around the entire perimeter of my garage before I moved out of my house. Now I don't have the room for them all in the condo, and I refuse to get rid of my books! LOL, would you all believe me if I said in that TBR mountain (you're right on that score, Christine!) on the far end there were a few boxes against the wall that the books were stacked around? But, of course, makes no difference because it's still a mountain, I agree! And the books I have in the garage and the house would make up for that. Yes, I am out of control, but I can't stop. Ask Sybil. But I sure do have fun with it all! And, Danny, I'm so happy I'm not the only one out of control with a mountain to deal with! Mary, please let me know what your mother says when you show her the pic! Hopefully she won't bug you anymore about your pile! No, Holly, don't be scared! LOL, all my books are very reader friendly. Even if they're stuck in a huge old pile! I'm glad ya'll like the idea of Duckies Do Series. I have one I'm polishing right now, so you should be seeing it sometime soon! And thanks for giving me a good chuckle today. I love all your comments. First, Georganna, welcome to the Pond!
