The Blonde Diaries

Well, I took a short blogging break during the month of March and some of April and totally missed out on my weekly book posting. Now I don’t even remember what I have read this year and in which month. I am going to have to be better about that in May. After reading a bunch on the cruise ship, I slacked off last week. I have my nightstand loaded up and ready to go so hopefully this will be a good week.

I have 8 books in transit to the library this week so I’m not sure if I’m going to work on the Sookie Stackhouse series next week or the Stephanie Plum series.  I’m just glad busy season is almost over!

Hello and happy Monday! It is another quick Monday and I only have one thing on my list that I have checked off for work. Eek! I also am mentally preparing a to-do list for chores around the apartment this week since Mike has been doing most of them for the past few months while I’ve been sick and I feel like I need to “pay” him back for it. So while he’s in Beaumont Monday-Friday I think I’ll work on things to make the weekend easier. I did a little bit of reading last week to help relax after a long day at work. I’m excited about the progress I’m making on a few series and hope to have them finished in the next month!

Hello and happy Monday! This day is just flying by. I made it into work on time (6 days in a row) and before I knew it, it was noon already and I hadn’t gotten much of anything done. EEK!

January 2010 is now a thing of the past. My January was extremely busy being that my client decided they wanted to file a Form S-1 with the SEC before the end of January. That meant that my audit that is normally finished on April 30th each year was now due by January 15th. Talk about a lot of stress. To relieve the stress since I couldn’t get to the gym, I read. I read A LOT! Here is my recap below on what I read. I actually finished my Stephanie Plum Challenge for 2010 already and will be extending it to try and finish all the books in the series by June. We’ll see.
