Absence

It's been a while since I've had a chance to post anything here.  Mostly this is due to the fact that I've just been busy and my priority, when I have the time to blog, is posting on my family's site.  But there has been a lot I've been wanting to share and the following two posts are book reviews that I wrote over the last few weeks and just now had a chance to edit and post.  You probably wonder how I find time to read.  It's a good question!  I don't have much time at home and most of the reading I ever get done is when I am subbing, something I did more of a few weeks ago but haven't recently been doing a lot of .  Most of my reading is done with my kids or for my weekly women's biblestudy.  I'm currently trying very had to get into a fantasy series, Wheel of Time, that my husband wants me to read; he's been engrossed in it for the last few months.  I really want to read these so I can enter the world he's been exploring but fantasy isn't my first choice of genre so it's much more work for me.  The other factor working against me, of course, is that this new baby of ours will be entering the world in a few short weeks and I don't anticipate having any free time after this!  However, all that said, my best recommendation for getting time to read is simply unplugging your TV and computer.  It's amazing how much extra time there is when these two devices aren't available to suck our time.  Not that all the "sucking" is bad but let's be honest, at least half of what we do online is completely useless and has no value at all - same goes for TV. 

I have a few more posts I hope to get up before this baby arrives so check back in the next week or so and hopefully I'll have had a chance to get to them!
