Hahha! I'm overwhelmed, and I only have 187. Realistic fiction first, then fantasy, then historical, then classics, then non fiction.
I´m a only-shelf person lolCause I just keep my favs in my bedroom shelf so.. it´s easy to organize. Except for the pen and pencil part haha And the part that I have 6 books whitout a place haha
I have two book shelves, one in my bedroom and one in my office. The one in my office is packed to the brim.

I organize my real book shelves by author. My faves on top shelves. After authors are taken up and I'm looking at a lot of "single" books, silly as it sounds, I organize them by size, shape and color. I like my shelves to look pretty:-)
My shelves on GR are organized by genre, but the ones at home are grouped by author. Grouped is the word, because the groups aren't in any particular order, except that I have one 5 shelf bookcase that is all Andre Norton books, and a smaller one that has all the Anne McCaffrey books. My books on GR are constantly getting new "tags" to keep track of them, and I've been going through book lists to add ones that I forgot. My children's shelf has expanded quickly this month by perusing that shelf in the explore books section. I hadn't realized how many of those I have read over the years to my classes!
I think she was very, very pretty. I can't believe you haven't seen the newer Parent Trap. It's such a cute movie. The dad is gorgeous!!!! Always a plus.

My main shelf is alphabetical order according to author surname but for the rest it is big books on the bottom so the pile doesn't wobble too much :0)
After following what happened to Natasha Richardson, I'm glad that I let the ambulance take me to the hospital last Friday after someone plowed into the back of my vehicle. I got checked out and had some X-rays taken to make sure there were no fractures. I am having a few problems, but I am confident that they are minor. Of course, I am staying in touch with my doctor. I don't know if it would have made any difference if Natasha had gone straight to the hospital or not, appears that there was a delay of symptoms. That so often happens in accidents. It's rather scary, but it does point to getting yourself checked out after any accident. She was a favorite actress of mine, and I feel so bad for her husband (another favorite of mine) and their sons.
Rachel wrote: "I cry every time I watch Love Actually and there is that scene where he is at his wife's funeral. It is so heartbreaking."Rachel, I thought of that scene in Love Actually, too, when it was announced that Natasha had died. Love Actually is one of my favorite movies, and Liam Neeson is excellent in it. Now, I won't be able to watch it without being even more broken up during that scene.
bored of reading? or just bored of reading boring things?I would recommend Anne of Green Gables. That should cure it ;)
Does eating salt 'n shake crisps. mean french fried with salt? I owuld love anything fatty and salty right now!
I swear, I am mailing you a copy. If I did, would you read it? Not like...immediately, but soon? I just know you'll love it, esp. since you love ICTC so much...Anne is another lovely coming of age type story, and she is sooooo much fun. Then, of course, there is the rest of the series...but we'll start small :)
Fi, I'm going to read ICTC starting Sunday. Does that cheer you up? I'm excited, it looks veryyyy good.

:D! Hugs and tea are nice, thank you. It seems like the sort of book I would like. I'm eager to start! :)

I feel so over full..we went to take for the first time in Ireland fish and chips. In England we would take two pieces of cod and one chips. So when she showed us small bags of chips we took two cods and two chips....The cod is soooooooooooooooo big. I didn't eat my chips and in the end I took out the cod from the batter and ate it liek that but with lots of trouble. My stomach is so full I cna hardly move....but it was good.
Gahhhhh. I hate being ill. "
