I'm doing 41 things
As long as you have a place they can get plenty of air, a worm composting bin doesn’t smell unpleasant and doesn’t take up much space. I’ve got my worm bin out by the garden now, but come winter I may bring it in to the basement (even in Seattle Washington we get some freezing weather). Or I may just pile hay bales around it.

Recent entries
I got into bookswapping to clear space on my bookshelves, and found that if someone requested a book on my TBR list, it motivated me to read it before sending it out. In the past six weeks I’ve read Ecological Imperialism by Alfred Crosby, David McCullough’s giant biography of John Adams, Eyes of the Heart by Jean Aristide, Theory of Everything by Stephen Hawking, Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister by Gregory Maguire, Exemplary Stories by Cervantes, Danny, Champion of the World by Roald Dahl, all of which had been on my TBR shelves; plus I read some new books sent to me in exchange, like Wicked by Gregory Maguire and Julie of the Wolves by Jean Craighead George.
PaperBackSwap.com is especially cool for this, because with their Book Journal you can upload the ISBNs of your entire library, and the system automagically flags each books that’s on somebody else’s wish list. Instant motivation to read that book, if you haven’t already, so that you can fulfill somebody’s wish! :)
