Rainbow Bookshelf

As I sat in my office this weekend grading what appeared to be an infinite number of student papers I stopped to reflect. WWJD? What would Julie do? Immediately, a wonderful idea came to mind. I remembered Julie's immaculately tailored book scheme in her colorful, cluttered room in Ann Arbor. She decided to arrange her books not by theme, author, title, or subject, but by color. She had a rainbow bookshelf.

Frustrated by piles of papers and an innate need to be creative, I decided to arrange my bookshelf (full of legal research and writing sources) by color. Now, my bookshelf at work is a daily colorful reminder of Julie's spirit. Thank you, Julie, for bringing vibrant color into my life.
