Reading is Fundamental...


Thank you, RIF, for allowing me to steal your organization's name. I walked into my bedroom and paused. I looked at my nightstand, then Ben's. I laughed out loud. If we were judged by our nightstands, I'd say we look pretty ambitious (if we were to make a pile of all the books that actually get read before they're returned, I think the pile would be cut in half). This is one example of why I have way too many overdue fines. However, I did join the adult summer reading program at the library for the sole purpose of "no library fines for a year." It has saved my bacon several times already. So, I'll let you know when we get all of our books read...and you can consider us two of your highly ambitious friends.

At least both of you have your scriptures there with all your books:) I think that Nathan is in the middle of 5 books right now. He has been reading them for the past 3 years. Someday he may have more time to read. As for me I just read and let everything else suffer :)

You need a bigger nightstand. I loved your poem on canning. YOu are one step further than me....most of my stuff just died. But at least I planted a garden this year.
