message 9636: by Dezra (new)

Dezra Bennett (dezra_bennett) | 652 comments My son once again was my distraction. He thought it was a great time to build a castle out of toilet paper rolls lol

Amazing job to everyome though.


message 9637: by Vicki (new)

Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments Is dozing off a distraction? Is your husband watching Steve Wilkos? Or how about your husband asking what you want for dinner? Do I want a sandwich from Subway? Or how about my husband seeing I'm having a hard time reading in this lighting so asking me to get up so he can get back in there and set up a reading light he just bought me for my birthday? Lol Do any of those count as "distractions"? Lol


message 9638: by Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd (new)

Jacquelyn (jacquelynreads) | 18790 comments lol! (: You still did great though!

Thanks!

Dezra Bennett (dezra_bennett) | 652 comments so many distractions all combined in such a sshort time Vicki. I'm surprised you were able to read that much. that's awesome :)


message 9644: by Mandiann (new)

Mandiann (goodreadscommandiann) | 6882 comments Are we going to go again?

Ashley  | 310 comments I would like to go again. That was fun :) my first time doing a reading sprint

message 9647: by Mandiann (new)

Mandiann (goodreadscommandiann) | 6882 comments How about :40 for 20?

Glad you enjoyed it, Ashley! I love the days I can get on here and sprint with the group!

Ashley  | 310 comments Thanks mandiann!
And :40 works for me


message 9649: by Dezra (new)

Dezra Bennett (dezra_bennett) | 652 comments Great!
Maybe that will give me time to convince my son that now is a good time to lay down.


message 9650: by Mandiann (new)

Mandiann (goodreadscommandiann) | 6882 comments Lol! Good luck, Dezra!

I am unsure if I should continue with Mila 2.0 or switch to Burn for Burn.
