60 and beyond book list for 2019

60 and Beyond Book List 2019

Welcome to my new blog. 

As I'm now learning to live in my 60's and beyond , I thought I might need a little reminder to love myself, so I wrote myself a letter. 

A Love Letter To Myself

Love Yourself, by Jean Hart, artist 

Figuring out who you are is not what you are here for. The world sees you. You are a good person, a true person and hold fast to that.

You simply have to remove all the things from your life you are not. List them if you must, put them to past. You'll will find your true self under the clutter.

Start with that brilliant smile. See how fast the strangers who pass you smile back. Join in and you will find your place.

Begin today, don't hide your shine.

Not now when the world needs you so much to smile at it.

Be your own friend, I have seen how well you treat your friends.
Your Friend
Your True self

I put on my vision board that I should read more intentionally. 

That I should actually hold a book and write in the margins and highlight places, food and events I read about. 

So my reading list for the year 2019 has begun, along with my goal of reading 50 books this year. 

 I say I'm going to do this, but I might not, only because I'm a really slow reader and some days I don't pick up a book at all. So, you see I have a big intention for 2019. 

1.  28 Days To A More Magnetic Life

This little book looks like something I should 

consider. 

Now, I like anything that has a count down. Do this for 28 days sound like a challenge I can handle. 

I love the daily affirmations and each day can be read within minutes. Easy enough to read, we will see if I can actually put this to work. It sounds marvelous and yes I have it in paperback so I can write in the margins.

2. Christmas In Paris a novel

https://amzn.to/2zAJS0B

I have found my Christmas Book. 
Each year as December comes around and the snow starts falling, and after I have decorated my house for Christmas, I like to settle down in the afternoons and read by the fire. 
Often I will have a hot cup of peppermint cafe or an eggnog. 
It has to be two things for me:
l. It has to be hot
2. It has to be festive
Since, this is the year I started to learn French in a classroom. I thought a book about Paris in Christmas would be the perfect book. 

3. I'll  be your blue sky, marina De Los Santos

This book came highly recommended. Again, I will order this in paperback and keep it in my library.

This year I went through my bookcase and took out all the old books I have been holding on to and donated them, so I have a whole shelf to fill up for my 2019 reading list. 

Make room for new adventures and interests.  

Some of this years books will be novels, cookbooks, self help, and  travel. 

Reading has begun for 2019
Enjoy and let me know about books you have read.
