Feelings/Updates; Today was a failure with reading again! It is just down to having family time- which i loved, but house and laundry which i hated! We had a massive family bbq to go to which was brilliant and by the time we got in i was washed out! I realised i had missed the Twitter chat again, which means somehow i missed all 3, really unhappy about that! :( So i wasn't in a reading mood by the time the children were settled in bed- gone 9pm! My partner put a film on, which he fell asleep watching as usual and even though i said i was gonna try and read, i ended up watching the film again and i watched it till the end whilst he snored! typical! I tried to read but did little before falling asleep. I feel guilty about not reading enough and not making more time to read. I haven't done the posts i needed to do whilst the readathon has being going on, i have a block while writing a review :( i have 3 pending reviews to do, amongst other planned posts and i feel my blog is just readthon updates where i say i haven't read much! Granted i do enjoy what i read. I'm just sad the readathon is almost over. I wish i would have done a readathon in September but Bout of Books is my fav ever readathon. I am so behind with everything. Moan over, im sorry and i'm sorry if you've got to the end of this-well done!. Day 7 isn't going to be much better, it's 3pm and i have read zero! My own fault, this morning did online shopping in a sale and read some previews of books on Amazon,oh dear! but we have just had a meal out with the kids which was lovely but stressful lol.
Hope everyone had a better reading day than me!
I only caught the twitter chat by accident...I was just about to switch up and start reading and then Amanda started up. I really haven't read a whole lot this week but never mind. I have a week off work with nothing planned coming up soon, that will be my own, personal readathon!
ReplyDeleteI actually avoided the Twitter chats on purpose! They tend to make me nervous. I was very lucky to have vacation -- a long road trip -- scheduled for the same week as Bout of Books, which meant I had lots of time with few distractions. (And the TV and Internet are both BIG distractions for me.) One thing I have gotten from Bout of Books is the huge "community spirit" surrounding the whole thing.
