For the past few days I’ve been buried in piles of books and dust (I’m not sure which pile was heavier), cleaning and organising Abah’s library. I’ve also had my computer use limited until I get the job done, which means any chance of a proper post is not going to happen in the near future. It’s just as well, since I’m in the midst of reigniting the creative spirit and I can’t very well force out words that do not belong just for the sake of quickening the process. These things can’t be rushed.
In the meantime, a few photos from today’s work.
First off, when I said library, I meant library. This here, is 1/3 of it.
Abah’s a bit of a book freak. He organises them into categories, has them labeled and numbered and keeps track of those missing and lent. For real.
Today was better than the other days because my sister and I had backup! Her friends came over to help out (tak free eh, Abah upah) which meant we managed to reach our target by the end of the day. Notice the 4 rags, each for the pile of books to be wiped carefully clean.
And of course, the motley crew. From left, Alisa, my sister, Izat. I like her friends, they’re a funny lot.
Tomorrow, our work continues.
In the words of Meryl Streep’s Miranda Priestly: “That’s all.”
Enough said here.
