Process: I was really busy yesterday and got out of my Friday routine, but that's ok- it's still this week! I have been going through my book shelves and finding satisfaction in clearing some room. I think I may have a bookshelf for sale sometime soon!  I am slowly getting rid of my massive war novel collection. There was a time about 10 years ago when I bought book after book to add to it- but there came a time about 6 years ago when I just couldn't stomach another book on violence. My fascination as a pacifist, had met it's satiation. I know without any doubt in my mind that war is terrible- no need to surround myself with books to iron in that point.

The motorcycle helmet- I don't know why i've held on to it. It was tossed in the sale of my most recent bike and I had been planning to donate it. I don't trust second hand lids, and I don't even dream of wearing something that isn't a full helmet. Off to the goodwill you go! (Very suitable for a Halloween costume- friends, don't ever buy a second hand helmet for safety reasons)
