I'm doing 30 things
I came short probably by about 15-20. I need to keep better track. I definitely read more but not enough. I love to read and this past year really reminded me of that. I got lost in books in a way I haven’t since I was a teenager. I rediscovered the joys of the library. Still, I didn’t set enough time aside for reading. I will do that in 2009. Another thing I discovered, book clubs help.
