2:39PM had my lunch around 11:45, did my 9 min mission, now reading The Passage and Also Dust & Shadow, and enjoying my snack of hummus and crackers. It has been a pretty nice relaxing day! I am enjoying it.

[Katy]

4:01 p.m. EDT Slept almost 12 hours, Dmitry woke up almost two hours early, which is unheard-of. Had some Sunchips (let's see how THAT goes) and drinking some extra-sweet sweet tea. Mmmmm. Clearing out e-mail and then I'll be back to reading.

[Kathryn]

3:48 PM. Just got home from the state park. It was great! Definitely a new favorite. We hiked about 2.5 miles, then came home. I'm going to get a shower, then maybe sneak off to the bookstore. ;)

[Katy]

Kathryn, if you like to hike you should read the book I just finished. Southbound. AMAZING book.

[Janie, Group Owner & Book Addict]

4:26PM Dinner in the oven having fish tonight. YUM! Been reading Dust & Shadow, the short story collection, should have this finished tonight and then work on The Passage some more.

Glad you had a nice time Kathryn. I would not mind a hike right now, but I think son and I are gonna do our bike ride.

[Kathryn]

5:45 PM. I'm at the bookstore!!!

[Katy]

Enjoy the bookstore, Kathryn!

6:58 p.m. EDT Watching some of these NALT Christian videos. Some really awesome stuff.

After 5 months I finally finished



Not the easiest novel in the World.

[Janie, Group Owner & Book Addict]

7:13PM Had a great work out this evening and now I am about to get back into The Passage. I finished Dust & Shadows, most of those stories were pretty darn good. Enjoying some coffee and ready to settle in to some more reading.

Kathryn yay for the bookstore! hehe

[Alondra]

8:32pm ET. Just had a cucumber & tomato salad.. YUM. After working in the garden today; I just did not have the appetite or energy for anything heavier...

[Kathryn]

7:40 PM. Home from the bookstore. Mark is out doing woodwork, but in a but, we are going to run to the store for dinner things. I'm hungry!

[Victor]

What did you get Kathryn?

[Kathryn]

The Bone Collector by Jeffery Deaver and These Things Hidden by Heather Gudenkauf.

[Katy]

9:16 p.m. EDT Just finished hauling in and adding the books from the box. Most of 'em were on here as to read or my wishlist, but there were a few I hadn't noted on here before, so cool. I think I have all my spy memoirs in here now. Maybe I'll hit those soonish... but no, I have so much reviewing to do... *sigh*

[Janie, Group Owner & Book Addict]

9:29PM Wow this evening is going by slowly. I have not yet gotten back to the Passage. I have been busy on my site moving over one of my short stories. I worked on it longer than I planned. LOL I am gonna read now though. And maybe another ebook to read along with it.

Alondra the salad sounds delicious!

Kathryn so glad you found The Bone Collector!! YAY!

[[deleted user]]

Sleepy. VERY sleepy. Going to bed but if I wake up in the middle of the night as is typical, I plan to read. Don't have to work tomorrow.

[Kathryn]

9:45 PM. Making breakfast for dinner. I am beat from the hiking and the heat. Tomorrow Mark said it is going to be a lazy day, so yay! I am going to drink some coffee after I eat so I can stay up and read a bit. I did get a few pages read on the way to the state park, but I want to stay up late and read. This collection of short stories is really good. Off to finish dinner....

[Veronica]

11:13 Slept most of the day because was under the weather. Think I have a head cold. My hubby finished up the last minute school shopping and did the food shopping. Now I am wired. Looks like I will be reading for most of the night

[Kit★]

11:41 p.m just making the rounds and seeing what's up. Might try to do some reading before bed if I don't get too distracted with online things... :D

[Ella]

12am just got some reading done and hitting the sheets. Early day tomorrow with a friend to Purgatory Chasm in MA for some hiking and squeezing through the chasms. Then a trip to a dairy farm to buy some or lots of pastries and fresh milk..maybe check out the cow milking.

[Kathryn]

Veronica, hope you feel better. Mark said something is going around at his hospital and one of my friends has been really sick. Maybe drink some hot tea with honey. Sending hugs. :)

[Katy]

Have fun, Ella!

12:58 a.m. EDT Ready to sleep. If the cats will just stop yowling at each other...

[Katy]

A funny for my friends:

[Kathryn]

12:53AM. All of a sudden, well, within the past few hours, my already bad allergies have flared up. So stuffy, so much sinus pressure, itchy, red eyes. I took two Benadryl instead of my Zyrtec, so hopefully it will help. Mark is still watching a movie, but I decided to lay in bed and read until I fall asleep, which I hope is soon. I also hope my sweet Gizmo kitty comes to bed soon. <3. Goodnight, my GR friends...

[Katy]

Hope you feel better soon, Kathryn. I need to go to bed soon myself, sleepy.

[Jordan]

7:39am had a good workout with my friend yesterday but now my knees have like locked. running a hot bath to relax the muscles and I'll read for a while

[Shell]

Wow, I didn't think it had been that long since I was on GR but there has been A LOT of activity in this thread!!

Janie and Kathryn, so glad you could meet up and badly wish I could have been there with you!!

8.44pm Just chilling on the couch catching up on GR. Caught up with my little bro today and got to have cuddles with my gorgeous nephew. Read a bit of The Never List and now I'm going to either read A Game of Thrones or watch some Breaking Bad. I'm pretty keen to be done with BB - I'll have so much more time for reading!!

[Sean]

14.00

Just had a little cry watching CORONATION STREET(Britain's most popular tv programme)as Hayley has discovered the Cancer is unoperable and she only has six months to live. Just know that Xmas will be ruined.

[Janie, Group Owner & Book Addict]

8:37AM Hub and Son at work, Kay still asleep and I have all this quiet time to myself. Will have breakfast soon, but decided against coffee this AM. Maybe sometime today I will continue moving stuff to my site.

Kathryn hope you get to feeling better today.

[Kathryn]

10:36 AM. Good morning, GR! I woke up a little after 9. I ate some Honey Nut Cheerios, and caught up on my GR notifications. Now, it's coffee time and reading Different Seasons. :)

Katy and Janie, thank you! The Benadryl knocked it all out! Yay! I feel much better today. I usually get allergy flare-ups when Fall and Spring start showing up. I think being outside didn't help yesterday.

[Kit★]

12:12 p.m Good morning/afternoon everyone! Just doing the GR thing while kid has Blue's Clues on. Have no plans for today really except to venture out for my daily carbonated caffeine fix at some point. Might do something later this evening, go wander round or something, but I dunno yet. Do know I want to get some reading done! :)

[Alondra]

12:22pm ET. In and Out of the garden today. I have a lot of crap to do, and it is HOT. I thought this was September?? Ugh, I need cooler weather... time for snack break of Chili Dogs... lets see, all 4 food groups, right?? Protein from the dogs (Nathans..see, they're kosher), Dairy from the mounds of cheese I will layer, breads from the buns; and fruit/veggies from all the onions that I will lace upon said chili dogs.

...this sounds like a plan, and a healthy one at that!! That is my story and I am sticking to it!!

[Chris]

11:36AM Working today and really looking forward to being off. Since NFL season has started it should be pretty dead after about noon so I am hopeful to get some reading done (I'm not a football fan). I'll be around checking in when I can. hope everyone has a good rest of the weekend.

[[deleted user]]

1:45 p.m. Got up and read some of Devil's Knot: The True Story of the West Memphis Three and now I'm watching the Saints and Falcoms game. Need to wash a load of clothes today and plan to read/check GR's in-between all the other goings on. Hope everyone is having a good day so far.

[Janie, Group Owner & Book Addict]

12:50PM Just got back from being out. Had my lunch and then here in a little bit I will do my 9 min mission. Then I am free to read till Aves Arrives. So I need to get a lot of reading in before that lol.

Actually Alondra having chili dogs are not all that bad. My son has been trying to eat healthier and he checked out the label for the chili sauce and it is pretty good for you.

[Chris]

I love Chili dogs!!! I will make those when I have those when I have extra hamburger buns left over. I toast the buns with some butter and do an open faced chili dog. It is delicious and sounds amazing right now. Yes I have to eat the chili dog with a fork and knife but then I can put more chili on those than I would if I actually had a hot dog bun. I'm so hungry right now.

[[deleted user]]

I love hot dogs off the grill that are somewhat burned.

[Katy]

8:33 p.m. EDT Went to the Chinese buffet, ate mostly rice, but a bit of shrimp and a potsticker, too. Felt a bit nauseous, but now I'm a bit hungry again, so I guess it worked. Slept a long time this morning, wanted to sleep some more, but it just didn't take. Nervous about my appointment tomorrow.

[Kathryn]

10:50 PM. What a day! I was able to read for a bit, but then Mark kept distracting me with either football or having me look at the stuff he is building outside. We went to the store and bought a few things for dinner, but didn't end up eating them because my dad came home and stopped by with fried chicken. I think he missed us. He ate with us and stayed for a bit. We also cleaned out the freezer and fridge a bit. I called my grandpa for Grandparent's Day, and we had a nice talk. I've been watching my Cowboys win over the Giants, started some laundry, and did a little picking up. Now, I think I need a little book-time. :)

[Rachel]

11:51pm

my eyes are somewhat irritated so need to go to the eye doctor-really need to buy a pair of glasses to give my eyes a break from the contacts.

good luck with your appointment katy.

[Janie, Group Owner & Book Addict]

11:28PM I guess Aves is not coming till in the AM. Watched the game tonight. My boys won, but then again Giants really sucked. Our defense looks great this year, the offensive line did pretty good, but they need to work a bit on the scoring. Gonna read now. Would like to hit 500 in The Passage.

[Shell]

2.45 pm My boss gave me the morning off work to go to a Mad Hatter Morning Tea fundraiser. It was nice but I'm not feeling 100% so I had trouble enjoying myself. Really didn't feel like coming to work but I'm having Friday and next Monday off so I shouldn't really have any more time off. Having said that, my boss just came and told me I look a bit under the weather and that I can leave early if I want to. I'm lucky to have such a nice boss.

[Chris]

Michelle I hope you feel better it is horrible to have to work when you feel under the weather.

Katy good luck at your appointment tomorrow I hope it goes well for you.

12:37AM work went as I suspected and it was really slow. I got a good chunk read in Joyland and I listened to a bit of my audio book too. Now I'm up and can't sleep. My stomach hurts a bit. I'll be fine of course but it is uncomfortable enough that it is keeping me awake. Should feel better in an hour or so I hope.

[Shell]

Thanks for the kind thoughts Chris :) Hope your tummy feels better soon, I was like that last night and this morning - not very pleasant!

[Jordan]

11:17am reading for a while before I meet my friend so we can work out

[Kathryn]

8:49 AM. Good morning, GR! I'm enjoying some Honey Nut Cheerios for breakfast, and then, I'm going to make some coffee. I have several things I need to do around the house: laundry, dishes, finish re-organizing the pantry, sweep the house, and clean the kitchen. We started re-organizing, but last night, Mark told me to just relax and finish it today, along with the other things I need to get done. I think I should read a little beforehand for motivation....haha!

Katy, I hope your appointment goes well.

Jordan, I'm glad to see someone else getting into exercise!

[Janie, Group Owner & Book Addict]

9:29AM House pretty quiet today, Hub at work, Kay at school, and Derek still asleep. He is off work today. Went back to bed for a little bit once Kay left for school. I feel better now. Never did get to 500 on The Passage last night, got close though LOL I think I can 120 or so pages today just to hit 600. Started my laundry this morning. Did not seem to have as much today. And that is always good. Having some breakfast of Oatmeal and a banana. YUM!

Chris & Michelle, hope you get to feeling better.

[Katy]

1:11 p.m. EDT So, I arrive, and it turns out the counselor decided not to be there this morning. *rolls eyes* They tried to call at 9 but the phone was not in the room and we didn't hear it. So, rescheduled to tomorrow, in the afternoon, which means I need to take hubby to work, go there, and then go pick up hubby at night after he's done with work. What a hassle... *sigh* Just clearing out e-mail and then I need to do some editing.

[Kathryn]

2:25 PM. Well, I actually haven't read anything today. Mark had me apply for a job at his hospital and print out my résumé, so that took about an hour. Then, I just decided to work on my cleaning. Now, I've got things washing and I feel like I've been running around most of the morning, so I need a little book-time. I guess I will read a bit while I keep the laundry washing and drying. :)

[Jessica]

It's 8:25PM and I'm eating haribos! Plus I've been in school today, learnt a bit more arabic when I got home and now I'm just going to talk to my boyfriend and read!... And read... And read some more!
