Vintage on line

I recall hearing that you should remove the dust covers from your books. I love this idea. In theory. For inexplicable reasons, it makes me anxious. I'm not thinking of throwing them away, just boxing them up. I think it will give me a cleaner look, which I like. But keeping them on may feel cozier, which I like. Do you realize that in the nearly 1 1/2 years that I've been blogging, that we've just touched the surface of my quirks? Feel free to run as fast as you can in the other direction. So, please vote. With or without?

In other news, I'm completely exhausted. Picking up the pieces from the long break is more work than I planned on. In the interest of reaching this years goal of being My Best Me, I have got to learn to better manage my time. I think the first step in doing this is having 1 errand day. I have run errands 3 days this week and it makes it so hard to find time for everything else I have to do. I'm also trying to decide if I should try to clean the whole house in one day or do a little each day. It's just so hard to fit in errands, cleaning, volunteering, finances, phone calls and exercising. Finding time for the fun stuff seems nearly impossible. Please tell me how you get it all done.
