I thought about this one for awhile today. There were a few different ways I could go with this and I wasn't sure which direction I wanted to take. In the end, I decided to go with the things that keep me "sane," are a stress reliever, provide a bit of escape or keep me connected to the people I love.
I have always loved books. Getting lost in another time and place, another life. I love it. I've included some of my favorites from when I was growing up, a current favorite and the one I am reading now.
My ipod. Music is a must. I almost always have music on and I'm usually singing along {badly}. Music can take me back to a specific time and place, remind me of someone I love, calm me down or energize me.
The computer....it's my connection to family and friends, even friends I have never met IRL and probably never will. Those that are far away and those that live right down the street or across town. It's a source of entertainment, information and education. And yes, I spend way too much time on it.
And my phone. Another connection to those I love.
I was able to get a sunset tonight, kind of. So here is day 12 as well.

I am so with you on the music thing... My life certainly has a soundtrack and music is attached to almost every memory!
Love the books. I so enjoy reading. I just wish there was more hours in the day for me do read more. Love the sunset too.
LOVE books! Just wish I had more time to read them :). Great shot! The sunset is gorgeous!
I am loving the ideas everyone had for day 13. So far I have seen a show junkie and book worm.. hehe.. the colors in the sunset are beautiful!
I am with you on the computer ~ it, along with my camera, are two things I can't do without.
I love that you're doing so many selfies with this challenge and I feel like I'm learning all kinds of new things about you! I also have to say I'm so impressed with how sharp you got your eyes on this without actually being behind the lens! Wow, you nailed them!
You know I love books too!!! And music and my phone and my laptop! :) The sky in the sunset image is stunning..... so many textures! Great job!
I love your choices. I love to read too.
Beautiful sunset.
Great selection! Most of my memories are linked to a song as well. It's weird that certain songs make me think of certain people even if something specific didn't occur.
i like your 13 items... i love how they characterize you and all they mean to you.
A 'bookie' here as well! I have just started reading 'The Shack' on someone's suggestion. Love how you interpreted this!
Oh and neat that you would say that about the music. I once made a soundtrack of all my favorites songs in one year...put them in order of release that year. Voila...surprisingly they matched 'me' exactly for that year. Funny how we are drawn to things.
