» Crazy Book Lady » Oh Crap! – Musings of an Unperfect Mommy

  • Crazy Book Lady

    April 30, 2011

    Yep, that’s me!! I’ve always loved reading books and magazines and so collecting books and magazines makes perfect sense to me.  When I was younger I read the Sue Barton nurse novels and as I got older I read the Jean Plaidy historical novels – I wish I still had them!  Now I rarely read a novel, the last series I read was the Shopaholic stories and haven’t picked up anything like that since.   Well, okay,  I do read books with my kids for school and I guess that’s how I get my novels in these days.  Mostly I read self-help, parenting, spiritual books, and cook books now.  That’s okay, it’s still reading and I learn a lot from others’ experiences too.   One day I looked around my house and noticed the piles of books everywhere and I thought about it and instead of a crazy cat lady, I’ll be the crazy book lady.

    School book shelf

    Personal books, dvd's, and music - I used to have more than is on here but I have given and sold plenty over the years.

    Coffee table book piles - I cleaned this up because it's usually piled high with everyone's books

    Coffee table close up - pile 1

    Coffee table pile close up 2

    Top of my nightstand

    The nightstand shelf - behind the books is my dvd collection

    So there you have it, I am probably a certified book-a-holic and that is fine with me!   Did I tell you I have a wish list 71 books long on Amazon??

About Me

Mom avatar

Hi - welcome to Oh Crap! and if you come back enough times you'll soon find out why I named my blog that.

I am an unperfect mom to 8 great kids: 5 boys and 3 girls (and I had them in that order too).

I have been married for either 40 really long or really short years depending on how my day is going.

Even though I have homeschooled my children for the last 31 years, I am certainly no supermom - unless you count the days I have to rescue my daughters from a moth in their room.

I love coffee, chocolate, and music from the 80's. I enjoy reading books, chick flicks, and thirtysomething.

So, that's me in a nutshell (and I'm probably more of a nut than you know). Thank you for visiting me on my blog!
