Read-a-Thon Continues


Another 2.5 hours and 25 pages of reading the Hobbit today. Michael took about an hour shift.

I am enjoying the Hobbit quotes I'm collecting..."Mutton yesterday, mutton today, and blimey if it don't look like mutton tomorrow."  This phrase has been adapted several ways and used today.
I didn't plan on spending hours each day on reading...but I'm looking at this as a "reading intensive" for Zander and I think it will reap great dividends in confidence when we are done....if we can keep it light-hearted. LOL

Only 36 pages to go to the end of Chapter 6 - I believe he will have this done by Sunday and they can then go to the movie on Sunday or Monday.

Michael suggested I take Stacia to the onsen while they are at the movies. She's thrilled and that will take the sting out of missing the movie for her.
