My Reading
The message board I read about reading books contains lots of references to Mount To-Be-Read, or my TBR pile. Readers all have them and I'm no exception.
I have books I'm trying to get to, but first, I've had to read some of the papers and magazines that have been accumulating around here. I was away for three days, so I had six newspapers to go through when I came home, --but first, of course, I had to do important things like shoveling the driveway.
This afternoon I did take time to go through the newspapers and I'm up to date now, waiting for the afternoon newspaper.
But there are still Christmas catalogs and a couple of magazines that I ought to check out before I dispose of them.
And on top of that, I'm reading through my old journals and sometimes I'd rather read them than the newspapers. But I can't live in the past. I have to make some effort to know what's going on today.
It's a good thing that I like to read. I certainly have plenty to keep myself busy.

I have one of those but I have yet to actually list all I have to read out. I will admit to having an entire year's worth of Vanity Fair magazines STILL in their plastic wrappers. Sad, that's just so sad.
