ROW80 - Wednesday 10/12/11 Update

I found out that when given an hour of uninterrupted time to myself, I can easily get 1000 words into my novel.  While motherhood makes that nearly impossible, I am going to attempt some writing tonight - just not what I was hoping for.

While my goals aren't getting as far with the WIP, I have been getting other personal goals met.  I have been exercising more, keeping up on the household chores (instead of being buried in them) and having time with my twin daughters who are now in preschool and need the extra attention.  It's not easy for kids to have to wait so long for their turn to be the "special kid" for the day.  There are fifteen children in their class total, so they have to wait fourteen turns before they have a special day.  The Day Planner is really paying off.  Even my kids get excited when I pull it out and start telling them the list for the day.  Sometimes they even help out.

So, there is my Wednesday update.  Happy Reading!

Bout of Books Read-A-Thon

Ok, I signed up for this yesterday. As my first goal, I hope to finish "Awaken me Darkly" by Gena Showalter for tomorrow. I'm currently on page 244 of 358. Then I should have the first book of the Sookie series from a friend that I intend to read over the new two to three days. I'll keep everyone posted on if I will finish that one by the end of this Read-A-Thon. Until then, I'm going to watch the last two episodes of True Blood Season 2. Happy Sunday!
