I know that is a lot of hard work plus you are going back and forth to the hospital as well. You deserve lots of breaks for yourself during this busy time!

If you're selling books to Ziffit and you've got the patience, it can be worth waiting a few days and then checking through the rejects to see if they'll now accept them. I've generally found that they'll take a quarter to a third of the books they originally said no to. It's a bit tedious, but it can be helpful if you're trying to fill a box up.

I am glad to find someone else who is happy to move things on when the time is right as sometimes I feel as though I should always keep everything, but I like to turn things around sometimes and as I donate what I get rid of and buy things for not much - or am given them if I am lucky - in the first place I don't think that is too bad is it. Sorry didn't mean to pile that on you! Anyway, enjoy the sorting!!Amy at love made my homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17111180584250029433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4787951981229151015.post-32200112488278388632017-04-18T08:32:45.416+01:002017-04-18T08:32:45.416+01:00Strange how our tastes change...but change they ce...Strange how our tastes change...but change they certainly do. xWinters End Ramblerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17924495691256051693noreply@blogger.com
