How I did it
How to buy a new car
It took me
2 years
It made me
happy

How I did it: I've been carless for two years.  With baby on the way, we needed something to strap the carseat into.  So after much research on Edmunds, Consumer Reports and Washington Post's Real Wheels I finally narrowed down what I wanted. I let my husband do the negotiating because honestly it made me nervous.  But the dealers all seemed eager to sell and we were able to get a nice deal on a Rav-4. Read how I did it…

Julie Otsuka -When the Emperor Was Divine
This was a VERY quick read. I finished it in one night, which is nice since I haven’t actually finished a book in ages. I liked the matter of fact tone. It made the last chapter stand out since you could really feel the father’s anger.

Publish anything
Not exactly what I was hoping for... 17 months ago

I’ve published things for work. My name is on it and you can google it. So I guess I’ve completed this goal.

It’s not as satisfying as I thought it would be. Maybe had I published a work of fiction I’d be more excited.
