Mommy's ongoing education
I currently have 55 books on my to-read list. Life is good!!! LOL! But the really nerdy part is that I want to get through these quickly so I can move on to read... nerd alert... history books and biographies (I warned you). I never got into those topics in school, but I've found that I actually really enjoy them if told in an interesting storyteller style. It's a lot more exciting when you're not doing it to memorize facts for a test. So far, I've read about Abigail Adams and Abraham Lincoln. I had no idea about dear ol' Abe!!! I'm not sure what my next targets will be, but I figure with 55 other books in line, I've got some time.

I hated history in high school and college, but am so interested in it now. I wish the History Channel would show something other than WWII stuff!
I have a "important event of the day" thing on my google home page. I've learned so much that I never knew.
I've also gotten some "Dummy" books - like the Complete Dummy guide to Greek Mythology and Roman Empire. I'd love to learn more about those topics, but need a book that has it all. I can't have 55 books on my to read list! Haha.
