1/8/11: I'm having a LOT of trouble with my computer right now. The only time I can post is when I'm able to use my husband's work computer (so let's say no more than once per week). I can read the threads at work on my lunch break, but not allowed to log in. So I'm around and reading all that's going on, but until we figure out what's going on with the home computer, I'll only be able to post sporadically. thank you all for your patience.

2008 (and continuing)Goals: Reduce Mt TBR and get moving again at least 30 books. Stay away from Rings/Rays/Boxes forum!! (so addicting:) Try and limit the amount of new books bought. (note the "try") And I'd really like to start a commonplace book! That's probably goal #1.

"Because I have hundreds of books that are PC, I only register books as I get ready to release them." Well that used to be true... until the Race to the 3,000,000 Challenge. Finally got motivated and registered some books!! Now if I could only motivate myself to release them (well, gotta read them first:)
