TODAY

I spent much of today repairing an entire semester's worth of damage and neglect in my house. Cleaning was the order of business. Whenever I got tired of cleaning, I read a book--for pleasure. I have been unable to do that since December. In the last three days I have put a serious dent in the stack of books that I have purchased in the last six months and have been unable to read. The count as of Thursday was 18. Now the pile has dwindled to 7. I feel the need to visit amazon.com. My credit card is dusty with disuse...well not really. But it does miss buying books. Well my house is much cleaner than it was this morning and I am 100 pages away from checking another book off of that list. It was a good day.
