Oh lovely books

Before I lost my vision I would go through a book a day or every other day. I loved reading. I could see the whole story in my head. When I started losing my vision I greatly missed my books. I think the written word is one of the if not the thing I miss most since I went blind. I would have dreams about reading and then wake up to be sure I could see well enough to read. I would get a book and try to make out the letters. Looking at the page and having realization that I couldn’t read it. Those were good dreams but the mornings were a bit of a let down.
With my need for books I decided to turn to audio books. At first I was not as accepting of that format, but what other choice did I have. So, I gave it a whirl. I bought some books and borrowed some from the library. It has taken some time, but I have been getting the same delight from the audio books. Lately I have been getting some books from audible and the library. I put the audible books on my iPod. It is so much easier to take books to work when they are on my iPod instead of tape or CD.

So, Barrie you asked me:
Do you listen to books on tape/CD much?

My answer is all the time.
