"Musing Mondays"


This week’s MizB's  at "Should Be Reading" musing asks…
What distracts you when you really “should be reading”? ;)
Everyday things like doing laundry, housecleaning, shopping, blogging, and visits from friends and neighbors. However, I love the visits, so can't really say they are distractions. Something else that distracts me is in the afternoon when I am reading and get very sleepy, I hate that! However, at night when I should be sleeping, I'm wide awake, go figure!!

  8. When I actually sit down to read, little will distract or deter me. The hard part is getting to that point. I often feel as if there are not enough hours in the day to read as much as I'd like to.

  9. Like you, real life distracts me. My kids, hubby, tv, crochet, sleepiness...etc

  10. I get sleepy when I read too! I see in your sidebar you are reading Dewey's Nine Lives... is that Dewey the Library Cat? I read a book about him once, but it wasn't that one! Didn't know there were two!
