This is a bookcase that we are pretty sure came from some of Aunt Ethel's estate auction. It has been loaded down in our shop area for the past several years. Carolyn and Ben brought it up to our apartment yesterday and put it in the "closet" where a washer/dryer can be placed. Elaine polished it up this evening and I put a few things on the lower shelves. As I did, I realized that we are just bringing up more "stuff" than we have room for. We were down at the house today where Elaine did a washing and I went through several of our travel folders and disposed of much of it. If and when we sell the house Elaine will have to use the laundry facilities available here or we will have to move the bookcase out and get a washer/dryer in its place. There is something about a housewife doing her own laundry, cooking and baking, and all the household activities that she has done for many years that helps her fell better than having them done for her and I like eating in my pj's and reading the paper. Jim got the TV set up in our bedroom so I was able to watch the Yankees beat the Indians last night after we had gone to bed. That's a "perk" that we wouldn't have had down at the house. We are watching the "rubber" game (in our living room) between the Nationals and Cubs with Washington leading 4-3 after the top of the 3rd inning.
