I Know I am barely here

I have not done much here this morning, but I have not had breakfast, or even coffee. Planning to sneak away and read a book. My sister-in-law suggested it for me and Bob got it through an interlibrary loan, and HOGGED it for himdself. He had to renew it, but they said I could only have one more week. It has been a long time since I have done much reading, but I was glad to have a good book for all the waiting and driving yesterday. Too many choices for breakfast. I had best eat something though. See you in a little bit.

Bob is a book hound now! Finally, you get your turn.

I'm glad you get a turn with the book Bob got for you... I always worried I'd leave a library book somewhere so was happy when ebooks became a thing. I know I won't leave without my phone and all my books are stored on it now. I just ate a sausage, egg and cheese croissant for breakfast. Then Pretty and I cleared out my closet so the workmen could climb up into the attic and start blowing in insulation... They told us they'd get here later today because they had to make a run up to some beach here but I can't remember where. (I left most of my bed clear of stuff so I could still play on my laptop like I did yesterday. I will need to call another garage today to see about getting a jumpstart on my car. The other people never showed up.

I am better with books than I am with my phone. Cars can be a pain.

@GardenGerty My phone is either in my hand or in my pocket. Before I go through a door, you can see me tapping my front right pocket to make sure my phone is there and my back right pocket to make sure my wallet is where it belongs. I'm glad my car is finally working fine now.

Enjoy your book. I go through reading cycles and am now reading a book I thought I had read years ago (but didn't)

That is fun to figure out. Maybe you just WANTED to read it years ago.

I did have fun reading and may need to do some more when I do not have a time limit.

I chose not to, because I did not like feeling like I HAD to read. It became a job. I will likely check it out again sometime on my own time.

I have some books that I could move on if I could just get motivated to read them. So I'm stting a goal of one a week till I get them back to where they belong.

One a week is a pretty reasonable goal.
