But there are a good thing, and sometimes the variety helps. Yeah, audiobooks are not the only thing to do in the car while driving. But there are a good thing, and sometimes the variety helps.

Thanks for the ideas. I'm not much of a audio learner either...it's hard for me to stay focused when I'm listening more than reading, and I'm like you... I write all over my books! I guess it started in college, but I still do it to mark special or insightful spots, to make note of my questions, or just to make a comment to myself. It's an interesting experience to go back and read those later and see what God has done in my life - what lessons He's taught me or what questions He's answered - since I wrote the original comments. Still, audio books is something to think about... and finding ways to "redeem time" is a good challenge for me. Driving the long road from country to town during the week is a wonderful time to worship and pray, but I know I still often misspend a lot of time with mindless wandering... Hey, Daniel.

Actually, I downloaded a free one, but ended up deleting it because I never listened to it, and I knew I never would. I do listen to a lot of podcasts, though. But I've really wanted to try an audio book. I should just go for it. You dog-ear your pages!? lol
