2011 has had its ups and downs… some family illnesses that were close calls, and our sweet Coaly is sick. But we had a lovely vacation in Chicago and I had my last hurrah in Europe. We are definitely looking forward to 2012 and the new baby who will be joining us! So amazing. But where is my real focus in these last hours of 2011?
Finishing just ONE. MORE. BOOK. And yes, I have been cramming in some short ones here at the end of the year, but that is fair, right? The thing that is really irking me is that there is a cookbook in there, I might have to finish two books by tomorrow just to make up for that. I’m thinking that next year my goal is 10, including cookbooks. Going from one a week to one a month seems about right for my expectations. Or maybe I should just read all 10 in January? Happy new year! May we all reach our goals for 2012.
Read a children’s book you love and call it a day, girl.
Good advice! I should have done that, but I was being stubborn. Next year, I’m sure Little Red Hen will count for one though.
