Sixty

I had a goal for this year. I didn't make it until halfway through the year, but I think it still counts. I wanted to read 60 books by the end of 2011. And I am only four books shy. But I'm honestly not sure I am going to make it. Since Nathan boy was born, I have only read one book and having extra time on my hands doesn't seem extremely likely in the next couple of weeks.

I am on track to finish the Book of Mormon again by December 31st and I am within about 150 pages or so of finishing the fifth Harry Potter book (yes, for the first time), so those two may squeak in on time, but I honestly don't know if two more books are possible. And I'd really like them to be, just so I can say I read 60 books this year. Which is kind of lame to admit, but true.

So, I guess we will see. Jacob does have the last week of December off from work (his office closes down that week), so maybe I can get some good reading time in then. Or maybe I'll just grab a couple of Nate's board books and call it good. Too desperate? I didn't think so.
