Total Pages Read : 112



Books Completed Since Last Update : 0

Mini-Challenges Completed :


1. Book: Yes Please by Amy Poehler
2. Character: Umm...Amy Poehler. Perhaps you've heard of her.
3. Actor Name: Kate Winslet or Katy Perry or Katie Couric
4. Why?: Because that's what Amy says she wants. She told me so. In the prologue. I pay attention. Plus, I don't want to piss her off...I'd like her to be my friend. She seems fun.


Currently Reading :



How I'm Feeling : This no plan, no pressure thing is working out awesome! I'm liking my book, enjoying my lazy day and mildly contemplating a shower...but maybe not...

Snacks Eaten : Husband made me breakfast of bacon and eggs (which was totally awesome). Had a few snack bites (both regular and Nutella -- Nutella is AMAZING.)


Other Things Accomplished : Chatted with the husband and petted my dog. I feel she needs lots of attention and loving on since this will likely be her last week. (She has end stage osteosarcoma at age 11 1/2.) I love her...this week has been killing me. She's eating and wagging her tail today though, happy as always -- which makes me feel happy since I want her last days to be good ones.


Enough sad stuff, she's good today so I'm good. We're all happy and relaxing here today. It's a good day. I'm loving read-a-thon and just so happy that I get to be a part of it today.

  2. Yum. Those snack bites look absolutely scrumptious! And Nutella makes everything yummier. Looks like you've been getting quite a bit of reading done. Good for you! I've wanted to read Yes, Please but haven't ever gotten around to it.
    I'm so sorry about your dog. Make sure you give her lots of loving today.

  4. Irene from Team Mr. Popper here. I hope you're enjoying the readathon so far. Please remember that it's all about having fun, so if you feel more like snacking than reading, then go ahead. This event is the perfect excuse for snacking!
    I'm sure you'll reach your goal. You can do this!
