Many of you don't know this about me, but... I love to read. It's such an escape for me. If someone was to ask me what I do for ME... I would say read... ( I also like to do other things like paint pottery... but I don't get to do that often...). Even if I can only read for 20 minutes a day... That is 20 minutes of time that I can check out and just lose myself in a story.
I love my children very much, but I think everyone needs a little time to recharge and unwind. Or I might lose my mind. :].
I devour books. Jr always laughs because I finish books so fast. He even surprised me last year and bought me a Nook (the E-reader from Barnes & Noble) for our anniversary.
I have read thousands of books and I still just can't get enough. I think that my love for reading started out being read to as a child, then I really fell in love when I was going through a hard time in my life. I would read 4 to 5 books a week, just to get away from what was going on.
I don't read as often anymore. (Having a 2 year old and almost 4 month old makes it kind of hard to find time.) But I try to read a new book every 2-3 weeks.
I am currently reading Eat, Pray, Love-By Elizabeth Gilbert. I saw the trailer for the movie and I really wanted to see it. But I wanted to read the book first.
So far, I love it!... I can't wait to finish it and watch the movie!
