Read 50 Books in a Year

Looking around our flat I’ve put aside 20 books that I’ve been planning to read, I also keep a little note book with recommendations of other books that I plan to reserve from the local library... so why not give myself the goal to read 50 books (that I haven’t read) in 365 days... that’s almost 1 book per week...

I’m a little late in starting, but I’ve been known to finish a book in day.

Advanced...

Well... I'm 36... Can I still say that I'm in my mid 30's?

I'm ok with being 36... it feels alright... mind you I only turned 2 days ago... I had such a great day! Peter and I threw a little rpg party with a few friends... with nibbles, cake a lot of coffee... it was really fun.

Today I brought our scanner into the warm sunny living room (why is it snowing?) and scanned some of my negatives... I've been putting this off for a while... I rather set my darkroom up and do it the traditional way but a last month I took Advanced Digital Black and White Photography by John Beardsworth out from our local library... I liked it so much I ordered one from The Book Depository. I can't wait to get started!

out from hiding

well I haven't been hiding really... just trying to cope with everything that life has been trowing our way as of late.... everything is fine now, it just got a little stressful around here... I've also been in some sort of artist rut... still working with it... oh well

So we've seen the 5th Potter film and finished the final book... didn't like the film but looooved the book! the book ended pretty much the way I thought.

Knitting has once again saved me with the on going stresses in life... I'm happily chugging along my Clapotis in Noro Cash Iroha, the Chevron Scarf in Lorna Laces Black Purl and a pair of Slytherin Socks....

The Potter Post


OOOh! Can't wait! and to Celebrate I've just ordered some yarn in the Slytherin House Colours Green and Grey (Silver) to knit me a pair of Socks... I'm such a geek!


What I really want to do is throw a Harry Potter Book Party... hmm we shall see...
