i used to be an avid reader

but.. after Maddie's arrival i have yet to finish ONE book.. :) well.. one book of my own, that is. I've finished several of hers, per day, but.. none of my own. I bought the last book at the airport coming back here in October (i usually buy a book at the airport, it's become kind of a tradition by now..) but I haven't made it thru even a third of it.. I do miss reading, but.. these days as soon as I have a moment to myself after she's gone down for the evening, I either finish up laundry or dishes, or i fall asleep.. :)

oh well. I can always take up reading again when she starts reading on her own.. (i am going to let her read 'pet cemetary', like i did when i was 10 or something.. scared me so bad that i had to sleep in my parents bed..) And until this day I am reluctant to stand near a bed, out of an innate fear that there might be something under the bed, that might cut my Achilles tendon..

Good times!

Besides - at the rate she's developing, she'll be ready to read in something like a month.. :)

thank god it's Friday today, btw.. i am SO tired today. :(
