Selfie #14, Easy Reading

I like reading this way!

Storms

Really?
This blog is about storms?
What happened to the beads?
The beads will return soon.
I just wanted to tell you about
2
remarkable books
I am reading and have read.
The book I just finished is called
Lucky Man
by Michael J. Fox.
No, this isn't a book report.
I would encourage you to read this awesome story of a man and his life journey
which includes
an incurable disease called
Parkinson's.
This is a story of storms and struggles,
love and family,
secrets and truth,
depression and optimism.
It's absolutely Amazing!
Enough said.
The book I am reading was written by
Elizabeth Edwards.
It's called
Resilience.
This is the story of storms and struggles,
the crash of the ideal,
the fight against
cancer and the infidelity of her beloved husband.
This is the story of depression and optimism,
love and family,
sickness and death,
secrets and truth.
Do you see a pattern here?
I recommend both books
to help with all the storms in life we face.
These are stories of courage in the storm.
Lucky Man
Resilience.

How often do you floss?

Everytime I go to the dentist, the hygienist asks me, "How often do you floss?" Of course, I lie, and I say, "Everyday, at least once a day." Of course, she doesn't believe me.

Now, I'm asking you, "How often do you floss?"
Now, I'll bet you are looking at this photo and thinking that maybe you should floss more often.
Well, you probably should, but this photo has nothing to do with flossing your teeth. It's a picture of sea monkeys, a very popular child's toy.

On the website, Mental floss, "Where knowledge junkies get their fix," you can find a myriad of answers to many questions. This article, where the sea monkeys are featured, is called, "The Quick 10: How ten classic toys were Invented." In it, you learn about, sea monkeys, of course, and Lincoln Logs, Hula Hoops, Play-Doh, Slinkies, and other popular toys, and the history of how these toys were invented. It's really interesting!
You'll want to think twice about sea monkeys when you learn why they are so active. (Those naughty little critters!)

Other questions are asked an answered.
Why does everything taste bad after you brush your teeth?
Can men breastfeed?

There are quizzes and trivia, too. I love this site! It's my kind of reading. I am entertained, and I don't have to think. I love it!

Oh, you might even find a question on flossing your teeth daily. Remember, you do need to floss your teeth daily. Take it from a big, fat liar to the dental hygienist.
