This made me remember a collection of newspapers my grandmother had on Valentinos death... I remember vividly one was printed on bright pink paper! I wish I knew what happened to them...
NO BOOKSHELVES???!!!
That's like saying there's no food in the house!
Please! Put up some bookshelves, it will make you happy :D
I agree with Lizzie, my bookshelves tell all about me! My dearest friend and I share a love of British history books and detective novels! Her books are prominently...

There is an interesting book I haven't finished reading yet titled, The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Society. It takes place in WWII

"It sounds like a tin lizzy"! My grandpa use to say this about old cars in bad condition.

My, I had forgotten about that glue! I need go buy some just so I can put it in my desk for those envelopes that refuse to stay stuck!
Yes. Yes I do send snail mail. Still.
Go ahead, call me old fashioned, I'd consider it a compliment! :D
