And someone to help buy all of our books would be SO SO SO helpful. Whenever I go to the bookstore I get overwhelmed with all of the books, and I end up staying much longer than my intended 30 minutes. It's so stressful because I walk back and forth looking for the best book, and then the employees at the bookstore give me worried looks and I end up spending more than I had intended.. but yeah!

Though if I had a book shopping assistant their job would more likely be to slap my hand when I try to reach for a new book. They would have to nag me to read the ones I already have. I love that reading nook. Oh the wonderful dreams I would have in that room. Makes me smile just to think about it. Peace in the blogosphere next year is an awesome wish. We can always hope. You know I think I should have added a few other things to my list. Runs off to edit it.

And sharing is pretty fun too.<br /><br />Like you, I wish I had my own tech consultant on call to help me make my blog more beautiful and answer all my questions, like "why is my blog button eating up everyone's sidebar especially when I followed all the directions?"<br /><br />And I agree with your last one too. Less judging, more support among bloggers would be nice.

I saw that picture you have posted there on that site once and fell in love with it. How amazing would that be to own? Though I don't know how you'd get those books down from those tallest shelves. Maybe add one of those cool ladders you always see in movies, like in Beauty and the Beast? You know the ones, the ones that always look like a ton of fun and always wanted to use? No?
