Yes,
I plan to participate in some way. Not sure how much but there should
be a couple of books read, a few tweets (#bookdragonslair) and a wrap-up
post.
Husband may be out of town for a couple of days
during the RaT and I don't know if I'll be reading or painting! I'll
update either way since the painting will be in my library :-)
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
After thinking I'd not have time to read the first few days, I spent some of very early Friday morning reading.
The Gift of Running by Dr. P. Mark Taylor ~ ebook, no page numbers :-( about 34% through it. Time to make notes and then iron :/
Happy Reading!
Notes? check. Ironing? no. Nap? check :-) Finished a book? check
Saturday update: Chiropractor. Lunch with daughter and her boyfriend. I'm moving super slow, hurt a LOT and went to bed at 4 p.m. Any reading? Yes.
One Day in Apple Grove by C. H. Admirand. I knew it was a romance when I bought it but when I picked it off my stack I confused it with another and thought I was starting a cozy. Still need to get that ironing done, husband is leaving Sunday afternoon and will need it. Worked some on my 5k to 50k training plan but as I hurt, I don't know when I'll be able to start.
Sunday update: whew, got enough ironing done! Finished
Crystal Gardens which is a good thing, the next book in the series is on its way to my library.
Monday update: back still hurts but I can stand up now without help, made some cookie dough but haven't baked them yet, reading
Chasing the King of the Mountains by T.A. Chase and Devon Rhodes. As my sleep is more lopsided then usual, I've been up since yesterday. sigh. Did a challenge! Title Scramble. Finished Chasing. Getting ready to bake cookies :-) I wasn't sure about the cookies because I mostly used Stevia but Son thought they were great. Finished a picture book (and cried). Made it to the grocery store, bank, post office and library! I had Son drive me around since I can't look over my shoulder and it was night. I bought two books. Poor guy, he's pushing the cart and the book in the seat is of a buff, half-naked guy! I got a "very subtle Mom". The other one wasn't much better but they were dressed ;-) I finally just turned the book over.
Tuesday update: Sleep is still weird so I'm up at 2 a.m. Put together a lasagna for dinner tonight (it was delicious) and started reading
Just One Kiss by Susan Mallery. Took a break to blog some and found a great GBLT/Bullying picture book. Finished
Just One Kiss.
Wednesday update: FarmVille, 5k to 50k planning, reading
One Day in Apple Grove (on chapter 10) but have plans for tonight so I don't think I'll finish it. I started
Black List by Brad Thor but I don't see it on here, shrug, I'm on page 98 so maybe it was late Monday/early Tuesday?
The Mystery Woman by Amanda Quick is waiting for me at the library :-D Didn't pick up
Mystery Woman but did finish
One Day in Apple Grove.
Thursday update: Did another challenge, Cover Love, but I think that was yesterday. Started reading
Star Ka'at by Andre Norton, spent some time online. Received
Plague today and trying not to start it.
Friday update: It's just after 1 a.m. here and I've been reading
Black List for a while. I'm on 218 and the whole thing is scary beyond belief. Think
1984 or
Minority Report only with the technology and political leanings available today. Yikes! Sometimes I'd like to have my own private island. Don't think I'd get good internet or mail service so I continue to read and keep my head down. Got to avoid the cameras you know? :-) I finished
Black List and am ready for sleep. I may or may not finish
Star Ka'at today. There are two currently reading books stack by my chair but it's Friday night and I may have plans :-) I've already got my wrap-up post ready to post at 5 a.m.
This was so much fun
