Let's Get Literate! Solid Lady Friendships Edition

[renay]

It's been a wild time the last month. Not only have I been reading (and more things than appear here), I have:

1. Started walking every day.
2. Quit several types of food. Goodbye forever, BEEF.
3. Taken up a regular sleeping schedule.
4. Resigned my co-chair in the OTW. I'm staying on the committee which is where my other reading time has gone. I'm reviewing docs to get back into the staff-work swing of things.
5. Rearranged my office. I added a new bookshelf! By the time I get settled in this as my office we'll be packing for Oregon. OOPS.

Also, all the books this week came off my shelf and I wasn't even doing the #ReadMyOwnDamnBooks challenge (is that the hashtag? I'm out of touch with the youths again). I'm giving myself five space bees for this accidental accomplishment.
