November 14, 2010 0 comments

I’m not sure exactly why, but I haven’t made very much progress on my Fall Into Reading challenge. My list had 20 books on it, 17 fiction and 3 non-fiction, and so far I have only read 3 of them (plus a couple of other books that weren’t on the list). Normally, I would have [...]

Well, a fair number of my tasks from last week are still on my list. I had to have a tooth extracted this week (yuck!), and I was already committed to helping with the local ASA Walk/Run last weekend (great turnout!), so my routines fell by the wayside for a couple of days. Luckily, I [...]
