3rd times a charm

     Sooo ... I was gone for a really stinkin' long time! Sorry.. and yet life goes on!!! Not a lot has changed, not much anyway. Same job, same struggles.. same everything.. new reading challenge.. yet that is really fun and fascinating in its own way...This year its 45 books.. and i have only made it to 21.. and i have just under 3 months to go. I have faith in myself...!! So off I go to read,.. but I promise I won't be gone for quite so long ever again!

47

... Just 47 more days.... and I still have 14 books to go... Im starting to have my doubts!

On the other hand.. the plusses I have going on are:

I finished getting the xmas tree up at work.. 5 additional strings of lights to a pre-lit tree can make a world of difference.

I am ready to take on turkey day! woohoo! cookie making here I come!

I think I have gotten rid of all the spiders taking up residence on the storefront window! Now that it's super cold I doubt they will come back.

... 47 days left... where did this year go?

been a while

Its been a while... a year, ... So what, doesn't mean that I haven't read anything good, or enjoyed anything, or hated anything, just means I've been too busy to share my life.

vacation.. vacation... vacation..

ok... i went on a vacation from blogging.. not sure why, maybe it was because i had so much fun reading, that i forgot how much blogging could be.

Crunch....

Today is October 30th. I have read 25 books this year, and have 10 more that I have begun, and have yet to finish. my goal for this year was 40 same as last year.. I am very proud to say that I am doing much better this year then last, but not by much. So many distractions... I almost wish that "Sandy" had taken out my job, or made it difficult to get to work just so that I could stay home and read!

why

wondering why , when it comes to a certain time of the year, I just kind of loose ambition for reading. I gaze at the bookcases, and visit the library, but I have little need or want to start something new. In fact I am struggling to finish what i have already started. I'm halfway through a sookie stackhouse book.. and up to this point they have all been hard to put down. but now i can't seem to want to pick it up. its not that I don't care.. i just have no feeling.

outside the weather is constantly changing. I don't know if i should dress for summer.. or for rain and gloom. why is this, I wonder?

midway

yea! this week is half over. it is a gloriously gloomy day, the perfect kind of day that convinces you that you really just want to stay home and wrap yourself in a blanket, and sleep and read for the whole day. OK so that's what I want to do today. Either way, I would prefer not to go to work! our system has been down for 2 days... which makes everything we do nearly impossible. but we are getting by.

I'm halfway done with a lot of stuff.. and nothing is catching me to make me want to finish it. i think i should refer to this is a bit of a slump. I find that my mind wanders more then i want, and then i have to reread parts all over again.

oh well, i suppose i should trudge off to work... see what kinds of insanity wait for me there!

not so good

I'm finding that I'm not so good at this blogging thing. months and months go by, and it never occurs to me that i should write down a word or two about what I'm thinking... Ahh not that its consequential to anyone really what I'm thinking or doing. I do not promise to do better at this, or any such thing. I can do nothing more then plod away at my life, and on occasion when the mood fits say something about it.

That said. "I've got a headache" so I'm going to bed.

good night

im back

i went away, but then after realizing that my new blog was not as easy to use i came back.. but shhhh its a secret. my dear sweet bf is the owner of the site where i had my new blog. He has lost his ambition, and his ideals are way to high.. and i just can't deal with that blog anymore. i do love him just the same though!.. maybe even more for his attempt.

lets see.... not a whole lot has happened in my absence.. im even more in debt, i put on a few pounds(just a few, but unwanted just the same) new job(that i hate, though i have amazing coworkers) and ive read a bunch of books.

books books books.. im up to 24 for the year. i think if i keep a steady pace i will reach my goal of 30. i did it last year, im sure i can do it again.
