The Christmas Wedding |
Before I end my day, I wanted to "jot down" that I went scrounging around my apartment for another book to read. I know there are books around that I haven't read, which made me realize there are books I need to get rid of, too.
I've always been a book reader, and for the last two or so years, I have put them down more than picking them up. I will start one, and then lose interest, as my cell phone distracts me with notifications. I will end up scrolling social media, reading my emails, playing a game, etc.
I've made it a goal to read at LEAST 6 books this year. My goal before was 12 books a year. But, I have been juggling work, taking care of my mom, and trying to keep up with my own self-care. I found a Christmas book in our utility closet. So, I decided that would be the next book I read.
It is titled "The Christmas Wedding," by James Patterson and Richard DiLallo. I don't recall where I bought it, but before I started actively blogging again, I purchased a Christmas book because I wanted to start reading Christmas stories around Christmas, every year. Last year, I thought I could watch Christmas movies, but I have a hard time sitting still long enough to watch anything. My mind always wanders back to my cell phone (such a bad habit).
