My Kindle Made Me Do It....

or not do it, I should say.  I love to read.  I used to lock myself in my bedroom when I was a teenager and lose myself in a book.  On Mother's Day, the girls and my hubby surprised me with a Kindle.  I can NOT put it down!  Every moment I have free, I stop to read.  Even if I have just 5 minutes, I delve into a book I'm reading.  I've even started carrying a large purse (gasp!).  I hate carrying a purse, let alone a big one, but my Kindle made me do it!  I take it everywhere with me, so I can read in the doctor's office, the line at the grocery and even at a stoplight (ok, not really, but I've been tempted if I'd left off at a good part in the book).

Another thing I love to do is sew.  I finally put the Kindle down long enough to sew a case for it.  Those are

pockets on the left side of it. If I could sew a place for my lipstick, then I probably wouldn't need my purse.... 

Here is a picture of it closed.  The button is from Mama's button box!

So, when the dishes are piled in the sink and haven't been washed... the Kindle made me do it (or not do it).  The dog needs fed?  Sorry Frank, give me five minutes, I'm reading my Kindle. The girls missed the bus?  The Kindle made me do it!  I'm going to lunch early today, I have to get back to that book I'm reading...on my Kindle.

My blog hasn't been updated in a month?  The Kindle made me do it!  (So, I decided to finally update my Blog... and write about my Kindle).
