My 2008 Goals

Hey-Star,

My-temptations-won't-come-from-Harlequin

directly-but,the-recycles-that-are-at-the-

Goodwill-store..I-must-endeavor-to-stay-out

of-the-bargain-store-until-I-finish-what-I

have-on-hand...

I'll-read-the-upcoming-offers-and-just-restrain

myself..I-can-always-go-to-the-public-library.

That-way-I-can-read-without-buying.

... that's just too funny.  I know that I shouldn't think so, but I've done the same thing many, many times.  I've finally decided that I'm not going to stop buying books regardless, I might as well just enjoy the ride. 

Hey-Star,

I-was-starting-to-clean-out-my-second-bedroom

when-I-found-an-old-Regency-romance-I

forgot-I-had..The-bookmark-is-tucked-in..

However,I'd-have-to-start-from-the-beginning

since-I-don't-remember-what-the-story-is

about..My-goal-for-now-is-to-finish-writing

to-enter-the-contest,then-read-the-next-two

books-that-I-have-a-bookmark-in..I-have-to-go

through-the-box-I-ordered..Remember,I-haven't

gone-to-my-friends-house-to-pick-up-the

grocery-bag-of-the-thick-ones..

I-have-even-fallen-behind-in-reading-the

online-reads..I-may-wait-until-they-are

almost-done-to-read-the-whole-thing.
