Read-a-Thon: Let’s Get Started

April 18, 2009 by Darlene

Good morning everyone. Is everyone wide awake and bushy-tailed this morning? Not likely. It’s awfully early for a Saturday morning, thankfully I’m used to getting up early.

So, here I sit with coffee cup in hand and some breky and of course a book! Oh, and let’s not forget the dog who is not at all happy to be up yet~lol. I haven’t quite decided what I’m going to do but I think I’ll check in every few hours to update my progress. I’ve also got Twitter open so I’ll be popping in and out of there. I’ve also got a lovely spread sheet that Trish sent me which is going to be great for keeping track of my reading. Thanks Trish!

So, here we go…the start of Hour 1. Good luck to all participating!

    Maybe Buddy needs some coffee too! I’m bright eyed and bushy tailed now–after two rather large cups of coffee!! 🙂 Good luck to you too!

    And good luck to you too! Is your dog a late sleeper? Mine loves being up as early as he can… usually that conflicts with what hubby and I want to do!

    I’ve already had more than my quota of coffee this morning and my dog Bruce is awake at 5:30!! I’m ready to go back outside to start book #2. Have fun today Dar!!!

    P.S. I received my book the other day.. Lady Anne and the Howl in the Dark! That was super fast!!

    Go Dar! Shall I come back, let’s say, around midnight, to keep you going? I’m quite jealous…maybe next year!

    Good luck! Buddy sounds like Milou – she doesn’t like to be drug out of the bed too early either.

    Thanks everyone for your good luck comments, I needed them-lol…

    Melissa, you were an awesome cheerleader!

    Jodie, thanks 🙂

    Kim L, my dog is a late sleeper. He likes to sleep until at least 8 am and gets a bit cranky when he gets hauled out earlier.

    Staci, glad the book made it to you. That was really fast.
