Day 4, 5 and 6

Note: I do not get on the computer on the weekends unless it is to look up a recipe or directions. I try to disconnect myself as much as possible.
So I read what Day 4 was, which would have been Saturday and it said to write about when I feel most pressured what would I think about so I can relax.
The times I'm most pressured include deadlines at work. As a newspaper journalist those deadlines can get ugly, especially on breaking news today. It's so different than it was 20 years ago when I entered the job market or even 12 years ago when I went back full time. Then I didn't worry about Facebook, Twitter or even the Internet. The most important thing was to get the story, get it right and then hope you were the first to break it when the paper was published the next day. Now you hope you're the first five minutes after everything breaks and you hope you're accurate.
I try to breath. That is what President Gordon B. Hinckley of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints told me to do when I was interviewing him about eight years ago. I was hyperventilating during the interview and he just said calmly, "Loretta, breath."
Then I think of the things I like to do and pretend for a minute I'm doing that, like biking or going for a walk or crocheting.
The fifth day topic is one I won't write about. Frankly my sex life is no one's business. Period.:)
The sixth day is one I love. What would I read if I could sit down? Which classics? What would you find on my nightstand, bookshelves or even on the tables in my living room?
I have a number of Agatha Christie books I love to read. I also have a number of the books on CDs I listen to on my way to and from work to help me relax. I have found a new author, Elizabeth Lowell, who is really good. I love how she weaves art into murder, spies and intrigue and also how she sets her stories, not in London, Los Angeles or even New York, but the west, like Utah and Arizona.
Classics I would love to read again include Jane Eyre and Charles Dickens.
I also love Dr. Seuss. Any of his books. Yes, I read them to myself many times, now that my children have bought me the books (so I can read them to my grandchildren.)
I love to read books about World War II. I also like Nero Wolf mysteries as well. And I do have lots of books on CDs, including Harry Potter series, because I like listening to good books while I'm cleaning house, gardening, walking the dog, crocheting or driving around for work or self.
And yes, I love reading the Bible, especially the New Testament, and the Book of Mormon. Alma is one of my favorite books in the Book of Mormon.
