tootsie...have you tried changing the resolution on your monitor or toning it down? that really helps with the brightenss an glare.
we might need to come up with a book exchange around here. lots of readers. 
~TY for the ink cartridge link sharon. with owning a business, we tend to use a lot. i donate the empties to the school. the cost of these little suckers is so high for the number of copies. ugh. |
I do play with my monitor settings, but the glare is still a problem for my sensitive eyes. I'm such a pansy!
The idea of burning to CD's is a good one. I will say though that I have tried books on CD and with the exception of traveling and listening to them in the car, I don't do well with the CDS. I start thinking of something else while it's playing. I don't know why. I don't do that when I read a book????
I also have been known to fall asleep. DH hubby comes in and takes my ear buds off and turns off my CD player.
He gets a laugh out of it.
I think book exchanges are good, BUT I love my books and rarely part with them. I loaned one out and doggone I never got it back. It was a rare book so I cannot replace it easily.
DH also loaned a book (1st issue of his Automobile Quarterly). The person never returned it. Long time ago; not forgotten though. Unfortunately the person didn't apologize and who knows where the book went. They are collectables.
Not like we can replace it.
