Mood Reading

I often don't think I'm too much of a mood reader, but in November I had enough job stuff going on that I hit the wall on several books I had out from the library. Some had holds after me so they got yanked and I had to re-request. I just got one back and got about fifty percent through it yesterday. 
It's always a little bit of a relief because when my reading takes a hit I am often a cranky and/or exhausted human. So really, it's good for us all for me to be reading. 
I was talking to someone about how I found commuting by public transit made me a nicer happier human because driving made me cranky. (Well, driving with other humans on the road makes me cranky.) And while the traffic remains the same, it is someone else's problem.
Outsourcing driving turned out to be the right move for me. Though certainly it didn't solve all my problems. 
But as we head towards a new calendar flip, may you find the rest and relaxation you need and figure out how to keep on reading.
