52 Books, Working Out, and other Accomplishments...

One of my resolutions was to read 52 books. That's one a week. Admittedly, that's a lot. Here's the thing with me though, I like to set my goals really, really high. And then fail. Ha. At least I'm honest about it, right?

Well, we are two weeks into the year, and so far...so good. I've read 2 whole books and most of another.

First up, Danielle Staub's (Real Housewives of New Jersey season 1 &2) book.  I personally could not stand her in the series. But, curiosity got the best of me...and I wondered if her book would be any different than her character on the show.  Yeah, not so much. But, it was interesting.

Keeping with the Real Housewives theme, I read Kyle Richards new book. It was pretty good. She was actually one of my favorite housewives, prior to this season...but that's another story.  Anyway, it's a fun book with lots of relationship, beauty, and life tips and stories from her life. 

I'm counting this third book as a read, because I read most of it. Ha. I got it just to read the Sookie story by Charlaine Harris. I started reading the rest of the short stories in the book, not really knowing what to expect. Turns out they were all goblin, vampire, ghost, demon related. Just wasn't my cup of tea.  I have a hard time starting a book and not finishing it (one of the very few things in my life that I make myself  finish what I start)...but I made the decision that it was okay this time. haha

So three books is pretty good. Of course, they weren't the hardest or most literary reads ever...but hey..whatevs.

Moving on....I worked out today! I haven't worked out since the first or second of the month (and then I started feeling bad). We just did a mile at the track at the school by us. I was so excited because normally, walking on the track would wear me out pretty quick (okay, walking on the treadmill did too...lol), but today I could have kept on walking. Yay for small victories.

AND...we got our Christmas stuff down today!!! I kept thinking I would get everything put up one day while C was at work, but I never had the energy. We just busted it out earlier (after the walk) and I am SO relieved. We also got my new cross that I got for Christmas hung above the pantry!

Now, I'm praying the accomplishments keep on keepin on this week. Especially with my emails....my inbox makes me want to cry y'all.
