Angela, did you make it with us?

You and me both! I have to be thankful that I even have the ability to read. Comparing never works! There is always someone "better" than us. Someone prettier, smarter, funnier, faster reading, etc. LOL But it's hard not to COVET that speed. Congrats on such a good pace, Kathryn!


message 1358: by Becky (new)

Becky (booklovingcoffeeaddict) | 4889 comments Well I'll be here for pretty much the rest of the day minus a few chores i have to do so please let me know if anyone wants another sprint!

Awe, that's good then! Maybe if I take my mind off stuff I'll read faster. LOL TRUE that! It's SO hard not to think of other things. For example, I got two text messages during that 30 minutes that I didn't look at, but I kept wondering who it was. LOL And my dog was sitting next to me constantly licking herself and that was driving me insane. LOL I'm way too easily distracted, but I don't have ADHD! LOL
