If We Were Having Coffee And A Recent Change

 Source
 
If we were having coffee, and after we visited about my latest favorite , Community  Hotel Blend, I would bring up something I have re-added to my daily routine.


But first… the reason.

My daughters and I often call our enjoyment of all things internet as,

“ going down a rabbit hole”.

I will confess as a blogger, I enjoy doing this daily.

I am easily distracted .

My reading ranges from reading your blogs and checking Instagram, Facebook, and Pinterest to what one of my favorite You Tube vloggers is doing to camouflage

her ‘mature woman’s’ hooded eye,

to what is the best hotel in San Miguel de Allende,

to who will be the starting quarterback for Texas A&M this fall,

to searching Ebay for vintage Mexican silver jewelry,

to reading Mommy bloggers and wondering how our 3 daughters survived us using umbrella strollers, ‘swings’ you cranked up, sketchy seat belts, and store bought baby food.

  

Then I re-surface, realize I haven’t written a ‘quality’ blog post with ‘value’ where I

teach you ‘things’ , and the siren call hits again and down the rabbit hole I go.


So what did I add?

Reading…

as in reading books… from the library… in all three formats: audio books, E books, and hardbacks.


Why?  

Because if I were a student in Mrs. Harrison’s (my own) high school AP English class, I would have been called up

to the teacher’s desk long ago and asked,

”What are you doing? You have to broaden your horizons if you expect to write with any degree of interest.

What happened? You used to be an avid reader !”

To which I, as the student, would sheepishly say, “well there’s the internet and this rabbit hole…”


So there is the reason- and so I read. 

I am currently listening to Revenant on audio book in my car (have you ever listened to a bear

attack while driving to the grocery store? I almost had to pull over-),

and I have Discovery of Witches (I am late to this trilogy party and so far I am not a fan),

and I am headed to the library today for a stack of books .


I am almost back to normal :)
