Chic After Fifty

I am incredibly tired. I guess is something that happens when you are young inside but not very much outside. I have worked, physically worked, very hard on the new flat, and now I am done for the day. I just want to relax, read my book, listen to some music, stay put. I wouldn’t go out for all the gold of the world!

See my bookcase? Did I say I have no books? Well, I left a lot of them behind. But I also got some family books, along with the furniture and everything else. I am particularly happy to be able to use this bookcase: I have always liked it, and it’s been in most of the flats where I grew up with my family; I have discover there many books that my father had hidden, thinking I was too young to read them… It’s been part of my life and it’s great to have it here.

For some days I had thought to order the books according to some criteria. But then I just couldn’t do it. It is a small bookcase, after all, and I know which books I selected from the family ones, so I am sure I will manage every research I want to make!

I am wearing a pair of grey sweatpants, a grey cardigan, a grey/blue poncho. And I am finishing reading City on fire by Garth Risk Hallberg, in this very cozy spot of my little flat…

Have a nice evening!
