I read alot at night when dh is watching something i cannot stand on television, which is usually ALL the time! I read during the day while the kids are at school, i mostly save that for gloomy yucky days that i have no energy to do anything else.

I read at night and while waiting for appointments. When Logan was first born I read while breastfeeding but he's bigger now and moves around more. Not to mention when I'm holding a book over his head while breastfeeding he gets too distracted. And the bathtub -- when my daughter isn't dropping things in on me.

I read in the bathroom. It is time when I can't be doing anything else, anyway, so I might as well get some reading in.

I also read at work during my students' reading time and at night once all the kids are in bed.

Whenever I can. I am so bad when I have a new Harry Potter book. I get nothing done. I usually read at night before I go to bed. Sometimes I read while dh watches tv, but it drives him nuts. I used to read a lot during the day, but now I am checking the board and doing surveys alot. So, most of my reading is right before bed. I read the little one a story, and then we each 'read' our own books until she falls asleep.

Same for me.. I love to read and use that as my quiet time each day.

I read while my kids and hubby watch tv. I still sit with them, just read instead. I also read when the kids go to bed. Hubby likes court tv type shows and mixed marial arts stuff. So when the kids go to bed we sit on the couch together and he watches those ucky shows and I read.

My neighbors laugh at me. I read while I am taking my nightly walk. I have DS in the stroller, the dog on the leash and my book propped up on the stroller handle.

Talk about multi-tasking!!!!
