Balancing the Books

My biggest problem is that I buy more books than I can read. I went cold turkey and did not buy a book for two months but that did not hep. I have so many books waiting on my groaning bookshelves that I think I could retire now and read for the rest of my life and not catch up.

My tally for August so far is: 14 books bought and 7 read. Of the 7 I have read this month, 3 were left over from previous months. On top of books to read there are newspapers, magazines and the internet. My life is full of words waiting for me.

I need to find more hours in the day for reading - hence the thought of giving up work and retiring! If only I did not need so much sleep.....
