I came across the word
TSUNDOKU
this week
and burst out laughing
That’s me all over
There are worse things in life.
Like I said to the wandering welder
Aka my husband Philip
“When you go to the pub and spend your money on a few pints, where does it end up ?”
Down the toilet, I informed him.
Now then look where my money goes.
“I lost that one argument then” he said

I had intended to stop by sooner, but I've been taking care of my neighbor's cat and today the IV drip I have to give her four times a day took much longer than an hour the times I was there today.
ReplyDeleteI have piles and piles and piles of books around my home, too. I also have piles of read books around my house. You can never go wrong by buying a book. If you don't like it and haven't paid much for it, you can always use it in your art.
Have a great rest of Friday and a wonderful weekend, Lynn.
Hi Lynn, I suspect you're in bed by now if you've any sense unlike myself. I got going with a project and well here I am still. The book piles look very familiar Lol! Have a lovely weekend. Hugs, Angela xXx
ReplyDeleteI love new words and that one is wonderful! I've not come across it before, but I am an expert in the field of book collecting. Right now I don't find a lot of time to read, but I keep telling myself that when my arthritis has got too bad for me to follow all my other hobbies - papercraft, crochet, gardening etc - than I will start reading my 'library'! I hope Aunty Jill is improving. Kate x
ReplyDeleteHa! I know that little habit very well! What a lot of tempting looking books you've got lying around and looking pretty as a picture leafing through one of them.
ReplyDeleteMy trouble is that i like books and beer! xxx

ReplyDeleteTsundoku - that word so applies to my book buying habits. I feel so much better now I know that there's a term for it too - it's a recognised condition! Love your piles. I can recommend The Sewing Machine - that is one I've read. xx
ReplyDeleteHaha, I think I have a serious case of Tsundoku! So glad I'm not the only one. There's something really comforting about piles of books and shelves stacked with them. xxx
ReplyDeleteThis is so me!! Loved this post... happy weekend!
