My Security Blanket

When I was a little girl, I would carry around a blanket my Aunt Sandra made for me. It was Care Bears for all of you that are wondering. I would wake up, stumble into the living room with my blanket and Chee Chee in hand (Chee Chee is a monkey I also always carried around with me). Even though I do not carry around my Care Bear blanket (or Chee Chee) any more, I have discovered something I must always have with me or I whine and pitch a fit, my whole day is ruined. At home I still pile up with a blanket, but I don't have to carry it with me outside the house. But with that blanket, I must also have a book. Now, my security blanket has become a book. Yes, I must carry around the book that I am currently reading everywhere I go (most of the time it stays in my hand bag). I discovered this this weekend when I left my house and all I could think about was my book, all alone on my night stand. I was without reading on Sunday and at work on Monday. All I could think of without my book was how I had wasted all this time not reading! Problem solved: I skipped working out yesterday to go home to read. I got home, piled up on my couch with my blanket and book but never cracked it open, it just sat there with me and I felt better! Go ahead and call me a nerd, a book worm. I totally agree with you.

I recommend you read this book, you will want to carry it around with you too.
