Subject: RE: Nov-Dec 2014 Declutter & Fitness
More declutter work yesterday and the desk is looking good - lots of faux wood in view on several surfaces. I have to work in the yard today because another arctic front is coming through tonight and by tomorrow it'll be miserably cold.

I have a list of seven textbooks that my son isn't interested in keeping (the one he wants is the motherlode of expensive textbooks, but it is important to his field, so is one he should keep). They'll be listed this week on half.com to be in place in time for the next semester's textbook purchasers. Half is a company owned by eBay so my same account information is good and I don't need to set up anything like PayPal, etc. I see that some collector books are listed there also, but I suspect this isn't the best place to sell them because they're mixed in with the less expensive copies, making the high prices seem ridiculous. (I just found one that I got for the normal retail price but that is prized by collectors, yet is listed low by sellers who don't know what it is. I bought a low-cost first edition with a dust jacket to send to a friend who probably doesn't have a copy).

Out to the yard in advance of the Arctic blast.
