The week of Readers & ritas is always a busy one in North Texas. Games to
prepare, baskets to put together, and the dreaded hunts through closets for
clothes that still fit. To top that off, I have edits to complete—Yikes!
Needless to say, my thoughts are racing at night and going to sleep can be a chore.
To relax and get my mind off my to-do list, I’ve decided to turn off all
electronics and stop everything I’m doing at nine o’clock; which is technically
ten o’clock if you’re having trouble adjusting to day light savings time like
me. Sunday, I made a list of books to read in the next two weeks and started on
book number one, which has proven to be a wonderful distraction. I hope you’ll
join me on my quest for a good night’s sleep with a few entertaining reads that
will make the rest of your busy life take a back seat for a few blessed hours of
relaxation.
