What’s on Your Kindle?

My DH and I haven’t exchanged Christmas gifts for years, both for economic reasons and because once the kids are gone it doesn’t feel quite the same. Imagine my surprise when he presented me with my own Kindle last month!

He’s had one for a while and I asked a few questions about how he liked it; but I didn’t even consider getting one for myself. One night while we were reading in bed, I commented that the ligament in my left thumb has been painful to the extent it was becoming difficult to hold a paperback book open with one hand.

I guess that was his ah-ha moment. I love the Kindle itself but I think the nicest thing about the gift was his thoughtfulness in selecting it. Now my thumb may have a chance to heal.

Do you realize all the things you can’t do without your wonderful opposable thumb? Opening jars, grasping anything tightly, putting on jewelry, helping my DH lift something heavy … were all becoming increasingly difficult.

Chris also loaded several new books from a couple of my favorite authors onto my Kindle; Vince Flynn, Sue Grafton and James Patterson. I’m looking forward to being able to instantly download books I want to read for Ageless Beauty. I’m impressed at the lengthy list of Anti-Aging Books available for the Kindle.
