It was about the time Mom started to get worse, and rotated from Emergency room to the nursing home, to home and back around again, that I completely lost my reading mojo (2021)
I think more than half of the books Mom had, were from me. I used to read so often.
I am just starting to get back to reading. However, with all of the home repairs and renovations going on, I often put it off or completely off for the day. I often feel guilty for sitting down to read, when I know there is a window trim that needs painted, or a counter full of dishes that need put away, or laundry that needs folded (but more so the home repairs/renovations).
How do you not feel guilty to sit and read on a daily basis?
I am currently reading a book I started back in December. Seriously.
So....in light of all of that....
Ha! Trying to squeeze in a few pages when I can. I was waiting for the blanch water to boil.
We shall see how this goes. My one Grandma (Mom's Mom) used to have a book with her all of the time, and I was told she'd even read a book while standing in line (say at the bank or wherever).
We hit a high of 64°F yesterday, and it was warm enough to read on the porch for once. Getting some fresh air was just a bonus. We are to hit another 60-ish degree day today (winds as much as 35mph), but it will return to cold again.
