Ah, there's the chair I just commented on in your previous post! Looks like a perfect place to camp out for the read-a-thon. :)
ReplyDeleteLooks like you are well on your way to jump-starting your reading on the weekends! Hope it keeps up! (And, yes, I hate lawnblowers, too. Also, the neighbour next door that goes out several times a day and has to leave rubber behind EVERY TIME! I would hate to buy his tires...)
ReplyDeleteLeafblowers drive me crazy! Hope you can read nicely anyway...
ReplyDeleteI agree on leafblowers. Hope it didn't mess with your reading rhythm. have fun!

Great job so far! I hate leaf blowers too. Annoying. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteYou are doing great. I got a little thrown off schedule this am, but I’m back on track now. Keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteI will surely need a nap a bit later unless, I walk around the house constantly until I fall over from exhaustion...LOL
Nat - That chair used to be considered my husband's but now that Annie has taken over the couch, I've taken over the chair. ;)
ReplyDeleteKailana - Lucky for me (or the yard guy!), the leaf-blowing noise didn't last too long. :) Thanks for visiting during the day. It was fun to get so many comments. :)

Karinlibrarian - Thank you. I love our reading room (aka the living room), too. It's very cozy and quiet. Just how we like it. :)
Millymarie - Thanks for stopping in with your comment and words of encouragement. It made a world of difference to get away from my books and check in on my blog comments. Cheerleaders rock!
Diane - I have a feeling I'll be in bed very early tonight. I didn't stay up too late last night, but I'm mentally exhausted.
