I always loved reading and going to the library was my favorite thing to do, and I always said that will never change and I hear others saying the same thing. Well it has changed, I’m in love with my Kindle Fire. I still go to the library every week to take my daughter and her friend to get books but even now, my daughter wanted to read Hunger Games and the list to reserve it was a mile long, so I broke down and put it on my old Kindle for her to read, and I think she’s actually reading it…I think. She’s been a tough one to get to read anything. She goes to the library, gets books and leaves them in the car until the next weeks visit. Very frustrating for a mom who is never without something to read, who doesn’t like to read-it totally baffles me.

Anyway. I also have an addiction to self help books, which is probably why I’m so down most of the time, I find problems I didn’t know I had reading these books :) Anyway, I thought I would share books I’m reading now or soon will be. I do tend to read many books at the same time, fiction and otherwise.

1. (an actual book not on Kindle) about how Starbucks became what it is, fascinating really.

2. The Little Guide to Un-Procrastination

3. Taking it Back: White Flag of the Dead Zombie Series
- Zombie series I’m liking.

4. The Gift of Fear and Other Survival Signals that Protect Us From Violence
- I hear everyone should read this, about following your instincts.

5. Drop Dead Healthy: One Man’s Humble Quest for Bodily Perfection
-Saw this guy on Dr. Oz and he was so funny and informative about getting healthy

6. The Know-It-All: One Man’s Humble Quest to Become the Smartest Person in the World
by the same guy that wrote the one above, really really funny I love this guys style.

7. Buddha’s Brain: The Practical Neuroscience of Happiness, Love, and Wisdom
- I go back and forth to this one

8. You Say More Than You Think: A 7-Day Plan for Using the New Body Language to Get What You Want
- saw this lady on Anderson or Dr. Oz who is a professional at reading body language and teaches how to do it yourself

9. Zen To Done: The Ultimate Simple Productivity System

10. Your Best Just Got Better: Work Smarter, Think Bigger, Make More
, because someone else recommended it, I haven’t gotten into it yet.

Just so you know the above are affiliate links I make a couple cents if you buy them at Amazon but hey go get them at the library if you like a feel of a book and their free there too. I hope you’ll try some of these books and let me know what you thought of the.

I haven’t posted in so long. I could say I’ve been busy and it would be true in some ways, not time wise so much as things going on in life. Health hasn’t been great, I’ve been fighting extreme fatigue for some unknown reason and then you throw in sleep issues and it’s a double whammy. I think I’ve mentioned I’m a CASA-Court Appointed Special Advocate for Children, that has been busy but so fulfilling, best think I’ve ever done. Then I decided that wasn’t enough and I started a local group using Facebook and Twitter, called Toledo Cash Mob. I love the idea of Cash Mobs, if you don’t know what they are here’s a link to check out. We’re having our first “mob” this weekend and I’m so hoping it’s successful. I was interviewed by the local paper and when asked why I started this group I had trouble answering. Why I did it is unknown to me, I woke up one morning and thought I wonder if anyone is doing this here, I searched and found nothing, so I started the Facebook group and wham it took off with over 100 members in 4 days!

The Power of Habit: Why We Do What We Do in Life and Business Absolutely loving this book from the introduction on it’s been just fascinating. Also reading a Lisa Gardner book,Catch Me

I love my Kindle Fire I cannot imagine being anywhere without it. My biggest concern is the short battery life before it needs a recharge.

Alright I’ve babbled on about nothing really just needed to get some words out there. Local paper identified me as a blogger, yikes, I don’t know where they got that from but I’m feeling pressure to perform.
