Things My Grandmother Taught Me About Organized Living Gloria Barry
I downloaded this book for FREE shortly after the start of the new year. It's a extremely quick read with only 7 chapters. It starts off talking about the author's grandmother and how she loved spending time with her, and some of the basic things she enjoyed about her. From there it launches into the lessons learned. From keeping a routine, to making sure that you take time to eat. Most of her advice is straight forward and stuff we really already know, but forget to follow in this day and age when the pace of life seems to need to move so quickly. I'm partial to routines, so being reminded again that keeping routines helps keep your mind and body to know what is next was great. When you do the same thing in the morning your body and mind begin to wake up, when you do the same thing at night your mind and body begin to wind down. It makes sense, and perhaps we laugh some when we think of how routine older people seem to be, but it really does help. It was also a good reminder of how much excess in many ways we have in our lives. I found this book to be helpful in reminding me of things I already know. It was worth the time it took to read it so I would give it 4 stars. I would not have been drawn to buy it, but since I got it for Free it was a good deal!
