Hours 1&2: Read-a-Thon Progress

April 18, 2009 by Darlene

  • Pages Read: 82
  • Time Spent Reading: 90 mins give or take some daydreaming…
  • Time Spent Blogging: 20 mins
  • Blogs Visited: Bad me. Only about 10 or so.
  • Books Finished: 1—The Scent of Oranges (but I only had 50 pages left to go in it)

Wow, the morning is hard! My eyes are burning and I keep losing focus. LOL-time for my shower I think. That will definitely get me more motivated.

So far I’ve had 2 cups of coffee and some toast. I tried visiting a few blogs and leaving some good lucks. I’m going to visit a couple more after I post this. Then I’m heading to the quiet solitude of my basement to do some serious reading.

I’m currently reading Scattered Leaves by Richard Roach. I like it so far, it’s keeping my interest anyway. I think after the shower though I’ll head into Mistress of the Sun for a while.

So, how’s everyone doing? Good I hope. I’ll have some pictures of snackies and stuff and maybe a couple of the dog. He’s not happy already. Mommy with her nose in a book all day will not go over well. What he’ll do is sit in front of me and stare~drives me nuts. lol.

Ok, off to the shower and to hours 2 and 3. Thanks to all the cheerleaders leaving comments and even those reading. They’re awesome!

    Dogs and Read-A-Thons are a tough combo. But Buddy will understand if you explain it to him. 🙂
    Great start, Dar!
