Happy Friday!

Dear Fellow #Bookworms...
The picture below is of my stack of books that are either currently in process or waiting to be read. They are sitting atop my nightstand which is filled with more books in waiting. Don't preach to me about the beauty of using the library - books are my Achilles heel. Someone, please tell me I am not alone! Why only yesterday I had to tell myself NO! when I went to Amazon in search of this book, because enough is enough... for now.
C.S. Lewis once said, “You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream." Dream BIG. After going "there and back again," The Hubs & I have created a home that is full of books, stimulating conversation, and the laughter of our five kids. We have been the recipients of Amazing Grace, and our life goals can be summed up in four words: Love God, love people.

I feel much better now about my OWN to-read pile (and my aversion to the library and my corresponding book buying addiction)! Hope we BOTH get some time to read this weekend! :)
ReplyDeleteGlorious - I'm not alone! :) Hey there, Jamie! Hope all is well with you and the family. And yes, I did get some time to read this weekend, though not enough! :)
DeleteYou are not alone and Amazon is one of my best book friends. Holding a book to read is one of my very favorite things. Some months ago a used bookstore was going out of business and one could buy a large paper sack of books for $7.00 and I ended up with 2 sacks......one sack had 50 paperback mystery books. Now if I could just figure out how to read and not eat chips at the same time!
ReplyDeleteOh my word... $7 for a bag of books??? I would have been going NUTS! I'm impressed you held yourself in 2 sacks! :)
DeleteI wish I could send you a picture of my stack! I have SO many books I've bought or borrowed that are sitting in stacks by my nightstand :)
ReplyDeleteI'm just happy to know that I am not the only one. :)
