Greetings from Denton, Texas! I’ve been in town for a couple of days to collaborate with my friend, Robert Cardwell, in his final lecture recital for the Doctorate of Musical Arts degree from the University of North Texas. The program went off without a hitch and he passed his oral defense. Yeah!
The week has been busy (obviously), but I have managed to get back into a reading routine. Still haven’t finished any of my current works, but I think I should have a couple finished in the next few days. I certainly hope so! It feels as though I have been plowing through some of these for an eternity.
The Long War is coming to an end. I’m within a hundred pages of the novel’s conclusion. Every time I read the next installment in this sci-fi series by Terry Pratchett, I am reminded of just how much I don’t like the genre. Unfortunately, I have several more of Pratchett’s works to read on My Library Shelf project. That may be the thing that is the undoing of that shelf.
While driving, I returned to my audio book. I am enjoying You Should Talk to Somebody About That, but it seems as though is an exceptionally long listen. I’ve been listening off and on for almost a month and I still have 4 hours to go! I’m devoting most of my drive home tomorrow to the book and should get it finished this week. Probably not going to pick up another audio book for a while. I’m just not in the car often enough to make any progress through the books in this format.
At the beginning of the week, I returned to a perennial favorite in the area of time management. Getting Things Done always helps me get organized when I feel as though my world is crumbling around me. I picked it up again on Sunday and started working my way through it. I’ve not read much of it in the past few days because I’m trying to get The Long War off of my reading list at the moment. If I pick up anything else at this moment, I know that it will be a while before I return to the horrible novel. And one of the things on my to-do list this week is to finish that blasted book!
Reading for Me
