Retirement

One of the things I only dimly anticipated about retirement was the problem of getting rid of all the stuff that I've collected over the years. In particular, not to mention all the doodads that seem to have accumulated around the house, but what about the books that I've been collecting over the years for my library? Some of them are outdated. Some (make that most) of the books I had to buy and read for Ph. D. classes are downright heretical. Some of them I want to reread. Some of them I want to finish reading. So now I have to start sorting through all the books in my library – and finding someplace to put them, because we can't have them cluttering up the house while we are trying to sell it.
