I'm doing 20 things
This is a war book that I actually enjoyed. It is basically a compilation of stories that the men of O’brian’s unit told one another, and then a few of his current-day reflections on those stories.

My boyfriend and i joined a gym this summer and have been religious about going … until this last week when things got hectic at home. Hopefully we’ll start up again soon. I haven’t lost any weight yet as far as I can tell, but I feel a lot more energetic.
I ride the bus to work pretty frequently now, but it is over a mile walk to my actual work after I get off the bus, so on those 90+ degree days I usually take my car… It’s so hard to give it up when it’s right there in front of me all the time!
