My New Year’s Resolution
January 7th, 2008
Many people have health and fitness resolutions. Mine has to do with mental health, in a way.
I want to read more books in 2008. How many more? Well, since I’ve never kept track of how many books I’ve read over the years, I guess I’d like to start. (Oh, and it helps that I’m suddenly addicted to our church library. I keep finding books I’m interested in, and because there’s a due date, I know I have to read them so they don’t sit on my shelf, like so many other books I want to read.)
My goal this year is to read 50 books. I hope to blow that number out of the water. I know I’m a busy lady with many commitments, but I’m cutting back. I’ve also gotten rid of my magazine subscriptions because I feel like they’re pretty much worthless. If I want a recipe idea, I’ll look it up online. This also means I’ve pilfered through my tv subscriptions and I’m only watching a few shows per week.
So, if I don’t blog for awhile, it’s because I’ve got my nose in a book.

After taking a nearly 2 year break from reading, I finally got back into it and now I’m reading probably 2 books a week, on average. I find lots of small chunks of time to read in between taking care of Addison. Man, did I miss it.
Any recommendations for religious books? Reference, living, etc? I never can tell which ones are going to be worthwhile!

That’s a great goal, 50 books. I used to write down the title of every book I read. I did 36 one year. I don’t think I ever exceeded that.
