My addiction


Every night, I try to read before bed. Sometimes, it's a few pages and sometimes it is a whole book:) Reading helps me clear my mind from the day's events. When I was a little kid, if I woke up because of a bad dream, I would often just lay in bed and create a story in my mind until I fell asleep again. Because of this addiction, my bed stand is probably the most cluttered piece of furniture I have. I switch from book to book, from story to story and some, I read over and over again because I love them so much. Lord of the Rings is one of those for me, as well as To Kill a Mockingbird, The Myst Triology, and several others.


Tonight's picture is my pile of books by the night stand. I've organized them a bit to make them look more "pretty", but on any given night, they will be strewn across the floor, dog eared, upside down, etc. You get the idea!

I guess we have the same addiction. Not a bad one as far as I'm concerned. Nice idea for a photo.

I love to read...there is nothing better than to lose yourself in a great book! I enlarged your photo and was excited to see "Water for Elephants"...a wonderful book. I'm with Bridget...would love to see your books in their natural state! Nice job, Jayme! P.S. Hope Santa brings you some new books for Christmas! :-)
