Yes, I'm finally off and running now. I was up at 6 am to get started, but will admit that I fell back to sleep for another hour. That will probably ensure I can stay awake later, right? Anyway, I'm a bit of a Saturday flutter-bug, so I had to clean the kitchen and eat my breakfast first thing. Now that it's all taken care of and I have a load of laundry in, I'm ready to roll!
Introductory Questionnaire
1) What fine part of the world are you reading from today? Salt Lake City2) Which book in your stack are you most looking forward to? Wedding Night by Sophie Kinsella 3) Which snack are you most looking forward to? Strawberries! I bought a beautiful pack of strawberries, and I'm going to enjoy to my heart's content. When they're gone, I have some yummy real fruit juice pops. Yum! (Yes, do you sense I'm on a fruit kick right now? I think I'm ready for summer or something.) 4) Tell us a little something about yourself! Hmm. I think I'm a bit of an open book on my blog, but will say that I'm a bit of a book rotater, so readathons tend to stress me out when it comes to numbers. Because I rotate, I sometimes don't finish a book from cover to finish. Oh, something kind of fun is that for retirement, I told my financial planner that we have to save/plan so that I can spend my summers on a Greek island when I retire. Serious. It's one of my favorite places on the planet, so I see myself sitting in the sun outside a beautiful blue and white stone home, looking out over the Mediterranean. Ah! I destress just thinking about it! :) 5) If you participated in the last read-a-thon, what’s one thing you’ll do different today? If this is your first read-a-thon, what are you most looking forward to? I always seem to be traveling or have something big happening on the day of the readathons. I now try to just enjoy whatever part of it I can join in on! Tonight I have to chaperone our school's prom, so I'll be taking a huge chunk out of the readathon to join up with a bunch of ladies I work with. I'm going to take my iPad along with me and just jump on when/if I can and then use it as a nice unwind later tonight.
Well, I better get to reading. I have the books stacked and ready, so off I go!
Ooh, I will come visit you when you retire on your Greek island...
ReplyDeleteUmm…I'm totally coming to crash your place on that greek island :p And look at you being all healthy with your strawberries :p I have some grapes >> Maybe I should eat those….
ReplyDeleteI'm a book rotator too, though I'm hoping to finish at least a couple for this read-a-thon. Good luck with the rest of the day!
ReplyDeleteI'm on a fruit kick as well. Like I cannot I cannot eat enough watermelon right now, it's bizarre. Good luck at the prom! ;)
