One of my goals this year is to read more. Specifically, I want to read 25 books this year. The older I get the more and more I love to read. The only problem with that is that I read slowly. It takes me awhile to get through a book and I always feel a major sense of accomplishment once I do. This year I would like to do more reading. I have so many books around the house that I have not read yet. Books that I have inherited and books that I collected over the years.
I have read one book this year. It's a Christmas book, of course LOL It's called Christmas Miscellany. It is basically a history of the Christmas traditions. I really enjoyed it and learned from it. Anytime I can learn something new about Christmas, I am all in. Now I am reading Anne of Windy Poplars. I believe it's the third or fourth book in the Anne of Green Gables series. I picked this up at an antiques shop for a dollar. I have only read the first book, so I am looking forward to this one. While I know that I should do the series in sequence, I am making an exception this time.
Growing up watching Anne of Green Gables on Wonderworks, the 2nd series, Anne of Avonlea, is based on several of the Anne books, including this one. I am very interested to see what was plucked from this book for the series. We shall see.
That is what I will be working on this weekend on my 50 at 50 goal. Who knows, I might try a new restaurant if the budget allows. Still, I'm moving forward!
