Things of Note:
I don’t have much to say today. It’s gray and rainy, and I’ve pretty much decided I don’t have any errands important enough to leave the house for. So it’s all work and laundry and maybe some screen printing or Sims later. Maybe curling up with a book. Speaking of, I’m doing the Fifty-Fifty challenge again this year (read 50 new-to-me books and watch 50 new-to-me movies in one year) and have updated that page accordingly. I’m doing it in conjunction with the Goodreads reading challenge to keep track of everything. Though, overachiever that I am, my magic number is 85 of each (I did 75 last year).
How about you? How’s your day going? Are you doing any sort of reading challenge this year?
