I will be brutally honest. The title of today’s post does not reflect that accurate state of my office, it is without putting to fine a point on it a tip. Please don’t think I like it like this, I very much do not.
So, what can I do about it? Well every time I start to do something about it, I end up getting stuck. I’ll give you an example. One of the things I did today was to look at what books there are in the office that are not on a bookshelf.
I ended up with a pile of twelve non-fiction books, and a similar pile of fiction, perhaps not quite so high. Now I am going to focus on the non-fiction pile. There some there which will purely be reference books, I am unlikely to read them cover to cover. There’s a book about the Internet’s early days – I’d like to read that. There’s another about how share traders became successful.
The one that I am really waiting to read is the abouth the Civil War, but that will have to wait until I finish the current book about James VI of Scotland and I of England. Even that book is temporarily on hold until I finish the book on TED Talks, which I had started reading whilst on a bus trip, and am finding quite enjoyable. It’s also a bit of a break after a very heavy historical session.
Anyway, the office is still untidy, and I am no better off, except perhaps there’s a bit more rubbish in the bin.
