What time is it and what are you doing?

Terri I have done that myself many times, but it happens, maybe hoping that it will have some redeeming qualities about it. I would not think too hard on it.
9:56 am
I now back in my house. The workers finished putting in the new wood flooring in my bedroom and I love it:)

12:41 p.m. and I have a doctors appointment at 2:00 p.m. Just plan on catching up on some posts before I leave. Working on cleaning the house today so I probably will get a little reading done in-between my little breaks.
Kathryn - Congrats on the new house!
Christine - Happy Birthday!

12:06 am just finished reading the GIVER !!
4:15 p.m. getting ready to go over to visit my aunt and my cousin, I haven't seen them in so long, I'm really excited.
5:17 p.m just got up from a little surprise nap I took on the couch. Whoops. Now I'm having a Red Bull to get me functioning again. Gotta go to dinner at my dad's tonight, hope they're having something good. @Katy, procrastinators unite! Someday. :D
5:00 P.M. Very excited because I was finally able to get back to A Game of Thrones!!!!!! :)
10:00 PM. Sitting here worn out and stressed about how we are going to unload everything tomorrow. The two people who said they could help backed out this evening. Nice, right?? Anyways, I keep telling myself it will all be worth it, but at this point, I'm about to throw in the towel. :/ sorry to be like this, but...given the situation, I am just not happy.
11:02 p.m. and I'm watching the U of L/ UK game, catching up on posts, and reading The Goldfinch. Plan to sit up a little while tonight because I don't have any doctors appointments tomorrow and can sleep in. Might sit up all night. Just depends how tired I get.

9:30 am Having breakfast while watching Bayern Munich kicking some ass. Ah, damn, that was good free kick though. Anyway, later I'll go and play tennis for some hours.
It is 9:45 am, we have another snow storm up here, but I am getting ready to go vote in advance poll. Now that is what you call a nut case for civic right :).

7:43pm- Trying to read Black Cat by VC Andrews but the desire to be on GR is to strong!
7:55 P.M. Just got home from work a little while ago. Getting in some me time before everyone gets home.
7:31 pm Just finished reading (I have few pages left so I'll finish tomorrow) and now I'm watching a SK talk. I always like listening to him.
@ 8:45 PMStrongly considering doing my 30/30 challenge again this April 1. Thirty books, of at least 250 pages (most should be be 300-500 pages) in thirty days. I don't even think I made 10/10 last April, but I'm pretty sure I'm gonna give it another try anyway. Maybe it'll give me the push I need to overcome this poor reading year I'm having.
5:49 pm Just finished reading chapter 2 of the book "Safe Haven" by Nicholas Sparks.
Mod
2:02 p.m. and we have a home visit with one of the social workers for my grandson at 3:00. Finished one book last night and hope to finish a second one today. That will leave only one left to finish. I'm gonna stick with my goal of one book at a time if it kills me.
1:14 PM. Unpacking!!!!!! And lots of it!!!

Susan, that is very true! Especially when it means the move is over! Haha!
3:53 p.m. and the social worker just left. Started cooking some spaghetti and I'm gonna read with the windows open. Fresh air always brightens my mood.
1:53 pm in the library at college waiting for my next class and as I usually do, I'm going to pass the time reading.
4:00 p.m. just got back from the gym, tonight I'm staying with a friend of mine while my mother had to take a 3 hour drive up to my grandmother's hometown, her memory is really starting to go downhill so my mother is going up to help her straighten some things out.
3:44 pm Phew! Just finished through Alice in Wonderland. Rigth on time for my class. See ya later, GR.
5:53 p.m. I attempted to lay down for a while just for the heck of it. Didn't work out very well for me, so I'm gonna read for a while. Kept getting interrupted.
6:05 sitting here watching Seinfeld.

9:34 reading The Way of Kings and thinking about going to bed soon.
@ 1:38 AM Welp my 30/30 challenge starts now I'm already behind in a way. I can't count anything I've been reading so today is going to have to be a big day. I need to finish The Forgotten because I have enough partway read novels on my shelves already--it's really good, too--as well as read another novel which I haven't even decided on yet. I got several in mind though. Wish me luck!

Good Morning GR Buddies. Don't forget it is April Fools Day. :D

9:35 AM. Good morning, GR! Already up and at 'em. Internet setup tech will be here at 11, my dad is supposed to be here about ten because he is giving us some furniture. I have a lot of cleaning to do today. It would be so much better if I could A. Find my coffee and B. If I could find my coffee pot. Lol

I wouldn't sweat it. I think everyone does that from time to time. A while back I read The Devil All the Time. Total junk read, but I sure read the heck out of it. Lately I've been barely reading at all. It's been a long time since I've read so little. There for a couple days I was thinking about giving up reading altogether for a while but then my favorite biblical scholar released a new book, How Jesus Became God, and I'm really enjoying it. And at the other end of the continuum I've managed to really get deep into a fantasy book I'm absolutely loving, The Warded Man. Also, I started reading a war novel, Matterhorn, that's pretty darn good.
