Done & Dusted by a Third
So at the beginning of February I purchased some books for myself to read (The Showgirl and the Brumby, The Abortionists Daughter, Thirteen Wives). By the middle of February I had barely touched the first, so I set myself a goal - Finish all three by the end of May.
I must say. I've failed. I only just finished the first last week and have just started on the second. But I am quite glad I have at least completed the goal by a 1/3. I am actually looking forward to reading the third book. It is based on the LDS church. Its called "Thirteen Wives". I am interested to see how factual it is. The title is what first interested me and when I read the synopsis it intrigued me. It is set back many many years ago - back in the day Brigham Young - and I can't wait to get into it. First I had better get this second book read - also very interesting.
The goals I set for myself at the beginning of the year are being dusted off quite well. I have already completed 3 and started on the majority of the other 7.
Weather update: Crazy - Freezing to mildly warm, Spastic Rain - Pouring to nothing, and the worst sun strike in the mornings and afternoons - very unsafe for drivers.
Cheryl update: Pale - I really miss the sun, Cold - I miss summer in winter and miss winter in summer, and starting to get hungry - I best get back to work so I can make lunch time come sooner rather than later.

Keep reading!! Honestly, I can't live without a book. And I drive everyone crazy when I don't have a book lined up to read by the time I finish another one. I'm a little insane that way.... (I'm reading Lord of the Rings right now and I keep thinking about the movie which makes me think about NZ and then I think about you... )
let me know if you like that thirteen wives book. Where did you get it?
