Why wasn't I told?

I have discovered audio books for the first time.

Why wasn't I told about how fabulous audio books are?

I was once a voracious reader, but somewhere along the way, about eight or so years ago,  my brain was triggered to fall asleep after 3-5 pages of reading, so I conceded defeat and gave up. 

A few days ago while I was searching online for an updated copy of a book that I already own, I noticed that there was an audio version of it, so I downloaded the 'audible' app and by doing that, I received the audio book that I wanted for free.

It took three days for me to listen to the seven hours of audio by the actual author and I LOVED it!

Today, while enjoying a very lazy morning in bed, on my third day off work, I was browsing through pages of audio book titles and selected some of them to purchase.

The first one I selected is titled "You are the PLACEBO making your mind matter" by Dr Joe Dispenza. I was hooked after seven minutes and that is why I'm writing this blog post early ... so that I can spend the evening listening to the book while watching Super Saturday football!

Adoring Husband was tied up with the First Aid training at the SES shed today, so I had to pedal to the shops to get my own morning coffee. I listened to my new book on the way there and then of course I had to visit The Happy Abode and check out some of the new stock.

The Motivator already had about five items set aside for a customer who was returning later to pick them up, so I was lucky to see them before they went to their 'forever home'.

Lots of lovely glass figurines, mostly fish and shells, but a really cute little pig too. 

It was difficult to leave, but even though I was wearing my daggy yoga pants and singlet top, I helped serve a couple of customers and then made my merry way down to the beach, where I sat in the shade on a bench seat enjoying this ...   

while I listened to my book.

I was also lucky enough to spot this ...

... which proves that I need to get out more with my camera because I NEED the practice!

It was almost 2.30pm when I arrived home and while still listening to my book, I decided to make a chicken curry with the chicken that had been sitting in the fridge for three days.

All in all, it's been a very pleasant day for me. All that fresh air has tired me out, but at least AH got a nice curry for dinner and I didn't have to lift a finger.

I'm feeling a bit creative but I'm not sure what to do with the feeling. So many options.

Anyway, I'm off to read/listen to my book. Have an amazing Sunday!

Nite all.
