The simplicity of my day to day.

Read me
One of the week two prompts was regarding magazines. I never read magazines at all except when I’m at the hairdressers. Come to think of it, I can’t even read them there any more because handling magazines someone else may have thumbed through might give me the dreaded virus.
They’ve even taken them out of doctor’s surgeries and put in television instead. Actually on the screen at the docs is just a load of health messages and warnings about washing your hands etc.
Anyway back to the magazines. They are all full of “celebrities” I don’t even know. Pages and pages of photographs of them. They are pushing their babies, going shopping or storming out of a restaurant. Such and such is pregnant and THEY are getting divorced! Do I care ? No, and certainly not enough to spend $5 or $6.
I used to like reading parenting magazines when I needed advice or tips. Way past that now. Fitness and Health mags are always inspiring, they just make you know you’ll lose that weight one day. Penthouse apparently was “great for the articles.”
