Simplicity.
I’m embracing it wholeheartedly as I begin the process of moving out of the home I’ve lived in all of my adult life and into a new condominium in a neighboring town.
There will be ruthless shedding of stuff in this process – certainly real physical stuff, but also shedding of habits and routines and all sorts of emotional baggage.
I’m looking forward to this new home, to starting out on a new journey. I want to make life simple, at least as much as can be in this crazy whirlwind of a 21st century.
In the interest of such simplicity, I have decided to discontinue Bookstack as a separate book blog. Posts about bookish things will now appear at Becca’s Byline, under the Category “Bookstack.”
I hope you’ll follow me there to find out what I’m reading, and also what’s going on with Life in General. Or “like” the Bookstack Facebook page, where you can join in the conversations about the reading life. I will also be writing about books in my role as Contributing Editor at All Things Girl magazine. Please subscribe for bookish news and interviews, as well as all sorts of other interesting reading.
Because no matter what else happens in my life, reading is – and will always be – a very important part of it for me.
And I know it is for you, too.
Happy reading, friends.

I like this development – everything under one roof. Nice.
I’m all about embracing simplicity, and I’m taking notes on every aspect of this next chapter of your life. I’m looking forward to hearing about condo living. So interested.
I’m interested to see how it will go..it will be different, and of course not everything will be good.
But yesterday we found a couple of windows that weren’t locking properly, so we put in a maintenance request and they’re be coming to fix them on Friday.
That part of condo living I really like!
Ah, I’m envious of your position. Not the getting there, such a tedious endeavor!, but the arriving. It is wonderful to simplify, to dismiss the detritus one accumulates. I remember when I moved into a two bedroom apartment with my son, after my first husband died and I had to sell our home. In many ways it was comforting because it was manageable. At any rate, all the best to you. I’m happy for your future simplicity!
Thanks! I’m feeling a sense of relief just contemplating it. Although the getting there twill be difficult!
