Read-a-thon Hour 18

It is definetly time for me to get to sleep. I hate to think of all the great mini-challenges I'll be missing. Next Spring I definetly will do this again and make sure my schedule is cleared. My favorite thing was seeing the map of where everyone was reading.

A Striped Arm Chair Mini-Challenge

I just discovered this site a few weeks ago. It has inspired me with some great ideas. I am glad Dewey started this because I think it will continue to grow each year.

Read-a-thon hour 15

So now I'm back. Unfortuantely I had 6 hours occupied today with kid events I had scheduled before I found out about this awesome event. So Now I will probably reading from 10 to maybe 3 am if I can make it. Still on Intervention.
Least I've learned from this first read-a-thon event on how to plan better for the next one.

Under The Boardwalk Mini-Challenge

So the challenge is to post a picture of who is around when you are reading. Mine would be my dog Spunky who is always at my feet and any one of my four girls.

Mini-Challenge hour 5

Mini-challenge number four comes from Barts Bookshelf. We were take a picture of 3 books off our shelf and make a sentence with their title. Since I am computer illeterate I will just have to to the books with no picture.
Living Above the Level of Mediocrity, The Sea of Monsters, Cry In the Night.

Great Idea.

Hour 4 Dewey Read a-thon

So many books so little time. Okay so I read last night for an hour between 3-4 am. So I got started again at 8 with the read-athon. Am moving slowly in the book Intervention and beginning to wonder if I am going to only get through the one book. Spent one hour trying to figure out how to do some of the mini-challenges.
