Tarzan surprised me this year with an after-Christmas gift of a Kindle.
I love to read. So very much. More than almost anything.
And I mean ANYTHING.
Not one of my daughters has caught this obsession!
I think it started because growing up in a small town,
in the summer there wasn't tons to do.
We went to the library. A lot. We went swimming. A lot.
You alternate the two, and you get a lot of swimming and reading
done in the summertime. Perfect summertime activities.
Anyway, so yes, I still do love the library,
the book sections of Costco and Barnes & Noble,
but I love my Kindle a bit more.
With the push of a button, I can download FOR FREE
all of the classics I wish to read.
For one dollar to ten I can download others.
So Ruthie, my oldest sissie, suggested my first
"purchased" book be "Same Kind of Different As Me".
It's a true story, written by Ron Hall and Denver Moore.
I love love love this book. I'm so very glad it was the
first "big" purchase (I think five or six bucks) because
it was worth every penny. I'll read it again. And again.
So that's how I'm spending these cold winter nights.
8:30 and I'm in my onesie pajamas with my Kindle
in my own little bit of Heaven!
