Local Celebrity--Who?

Four months ago I got a call from someone in our public library telling me about a reading promotional they were putting together using local celebrities.  She mentioned the national campaign with posters of "real" celebrities like George Clooney holding a book and urging others to read.  She asked me, as a local school board member, if I would come for a photo shoot.  At first I laughed, but said, "Sure, I love reading."  She said to bring my favorite book.  Well, I have a lot of books that I love, so I just took the book I had just finished reading, Exile.  I do recommend it.

I've had several friends and family members bump into my poster at the library.  They usually call me while they are still there.  I failed to tell anyone, except my husband, about the poster so they were quite surprised. My daughter took this picture while she and the grands were at the library.  I don't have to go to the library since my husband goes every 2 weeks and checks out about 10 books at a time; therefore,  I haven't seen the poster.  I call Don my book filter.  He reads at least 10 books to my one. He always has a book in his hand and I only read at bedtime. So from his haul from the library, he puts the best one of the 10 on my night stand.  That works so well for me, because I find it difficult to quit reading a book.  I keep thinking it's going to get better.  In the 20 years we've been married, I've only stopped reading one book that he recommends.  Every now and then, I'll buy a biography, because that's my favorite genre and Don doesn't usually read them.

I've read that reading before you go to sleep can cause sleeping problems. That doesn't seem to cause me any difficulty. But a strange thing that I will do is go to sleep and think I'm still reading and make up all kinds of things.  It's very confusing to do that.
