Goodreads Challenge - COMPLETE My Goodreads challenge is complete already, I am past my original goal of 312 and am sitting at 370. I am not going to reach 400 this year but am still very happy to have passed 365!
As far as my other goals and resolutions . . .
- I have been sending out a few letters this month, a little less than I had hoped but with all the Christmas cards taking up time I didn't get to write as many full letters.
-I wasn't as good about painting my nails this month, I was so exhausted and spending so much time doing house work that I spent about 2 weeks with no polish on.
-It was a busy month but Munchkin still got to do some fun things this month with all the holidays. We worked on some homemade gifts for loved ones, and of course some holiday activities but stayed close to home.

Goodreads Challenge - COMPLETE My Goodreads challenge is complete already, I am past my original goal of 312 and am sitting at 370. I am not going to reach 400 this year but am still very happy to have passed 365!
As far as my other goals and resolutions . . .
- I have been sending out a few letters this month, a little less than I had hoped but with all the Christmas cards taking up time I didn't get to write as many full letters.
-I wasn't as good about painting my nails this month, I was so exhausted and spending so much time doing house work that I spent about 2 weeks with no polish on.
-It was a busy month but Munchkin still got to do some fun things this month with all the holidays. We worked on some homemade gifts for loved ones, and of course some holiday activities but stayed close to home.

I know a lot of your books are kids books but it still blows my mind how many books you read!
ReplyDeleteAs I tell a lot of people, yes I count the kids books because they are books too and it is more difficult than you would think to read them out loud to a curious and busy preschooler. I also only count the children's books once even though we read 3 books at bedtime every night plus some throughout the day too!
