2007 Book Challenge: No Limits
Total Books Read: 51...woo-hoo! I'm pleased with that number. It's the first time I've reached 50 (+) in the three years I've done the challenge.
And it's a good thing I got it done now; from this point on I don't know when I'll find time to read again...with Halloween, Matt's 40/2-days after, and Christmas? I think the next book I pick up will be on New Year's day!

Idle Chatter:
Wow! I don't know how you do it - I can barely squeeze in a book a month, and that's trying really hard! Good job!
Thanks, Nic!
Well, I've always said that books keep me sane...and it's helped tremendously that Alex is going to school full-time now.
And I somehow found the time; I'd read while listening to the Pirates play, for example (it's not like they were doing anything note-worthy!).
I'm pretty happy about it; I've really missed reading as much as I did back before house and dogs and kid seemed to take up all my time!
How are things at the Moxie??
