Reading...

I'm slowly getting back into life after several weeks off work recovering from surgery... (Keyhole surgery may be a wonder of modern medicine and leave you with hardly any scars, but the bruising is something else!! And SORE! As one very kind friend told me, it's just as well my favourite colour is purple!)

But during that time, while I haven't had great amounts of concentration, I have found myself able to do some reading. It's always wonderful for me when I get reading time. If I don't have various forms of input I do get a little like a caged animal (also if I don't get to travel a bit, and if I don't have my phone or net access... or if I get bored... hmm... this isn't a good sounding list is it?!). 

So I've been reading bits and pieces of blogs on the web, and parts of the piles of books that were sitting on the floor of my bedroom begging me to pick them up. Most of the books were sitting there because I have very little self-control when it comes to reading and if I begin reading at night I'll often find it hard to put the book down again. I've never understood those people who can read just a chapter at a time, or who can fall asleep reading for that matter... So the books have been sitting there sulking since I haven't picked them up, and have actually covered them with other books that have come my way since (which makes them even more grumpy, I know) creating piles of books that no one could get through unless they had whole weeks off of reading time...

And then my surgery time came up :)

So I organised them into books that I really wanted to read and (since I bookmark websites and blogs as well) webpages / blogs I really wanted to read. And I've started getting through them YAY! I haven't organised my thoughts from all my reading very well yet, but I do hope to share some of them with you in the next while. After all there's no point just reading and not sharing any of it with anyone else, right?!

Stay tuned for the next exciting installment ;)
