Losing weight is easy, just move your book collection around.

This week we decided to take down a whole wall of shelving full of books. I had to look at every book, check value on Bookfinder, sort piles for donation vs keep. Today we put crates of books on the street and I'm sure they will be gone by evening. (That's how we acquired lots of them in the first place!) I used to be an eBay seller but I stopped for Covid and never started back up.

We are left with just a couple hundred books that are mostly antique little treasures.

Anyway, this morning I'm down two pounds. Just in time for Halloween candy. 👻

Ok, I couldn't resist, I bought Dylan tickets.

Presale today, surprisingly cheap, only $216 for two orchestra seats including fees. November 27 in Boston.

The last time we saw him, years ago at a NH college campus, we swore never again. He did not look up ONCE during the entire concert.

But hey, it's Dylan. We will go.
