Reading Notes – January 16, 2011 [TSS]

Sunday Salon

Happy Sunday everyone! Another week is upon us, and last week was a pretty good reading week for me, even if I was following two completely different resolutions.  I read more and less! There were some days that I purposefully took the time out to read for a chunk of time and there were others [...]

January has typically been one of my best reading months.  The family has gone home the resolutions have been made, and I am all focused and committed.  At the beginning of the year, I am all about trying to find a couple of hours each day where I can focus on my book.  Like most [...]

Hey everyone! I have to say that I am very glad to be, officially, back today.  I haven’t been around these parts in what seems like forever, but I really wanted to take the opportunity to spend time with my family and to fully recharge my blogging battery.  It has been incredibly difficult for me [...]

Progress: Notes From A Reading Life – November 21, 2010 [TSS]

Sunday Salon

Happy Sunday everyone!  This is one of the few Sundays that I actually get to lay around the house and do nothing.  Usually I am running off to brunch, or bocce,  or going to spend time with my family – who knows, some of that could still happen…but I haven’t planned for anything to happen. [...]

TSS: The Really Lazy Days of Summer

Sunday Salon

How is everyone this fine Sunday morning?  It is a merciful 71 degrees in NYC, and I have had (gasp!) my windows open for the first time in weeks.  It is so wonderful to have a week where the high temp is 80.  I am really, really grateful. A couple of weeks ago I was [...]

I feel as if my reading has slowed to a standstill over the past week.  Work and life have both been really busy, and I have been reading Dracula, My Love by Syrie James all this week.  I hope to finally finish it today. It’s making me want  to read Dracula and watch vampire movies, [...]

I love that television now has a summer season. Something to entertain and distract me from fretting too much over the latest season cliffhanger for Bones. Back in April, I attended the Discovery Communications Upfront and had the opportunity to preview what all their different channels’ offerings would be for the upcoming summer, fall and [...]

The Sunday Salon: Jury Duty Reading

The Sunday Salon

Once I moaned, groaned and resigned myself to the fact that I had to go in and do my civic duty, I looked on it as an opportunity to read – something I never have enough time to do as I would like.  I spent two days sitting in the jury pool before I was [...]

Sunday Salon – Back From The Reading Dumps – February 21, 2010

The Sunday Salon

I’m reading again! February has been decidedly slower than January has been for reading.  I don’t know what happened.  Maybe it was too much too soon, but by February 13th I had finished my 23rd book, and then I just stopped.  I haven’t finished a book since then.  I have been reading The Lotus Eaters which [...]

Progress: Notes From A Reading Life ~ January 11

The Little Stranger

Can someone please explain to me where in the world time goes?  My last progress notes were on December 20, 2009.  I was thinking to make this at the least a weekly thing, the real goal being a few notes twice a week on how my reading was going.  Or how about every 20 days [...]
