#LDRAT Wrap-Up




So I'm very proud of myself because I completed four books for this Labor Day readathon, and I wish I had more time to finish more but the kiddies were starting to get restles.  All in all I think I was successful in my goals.

I've read and completed the following (reviews to come soon):




Blood Rites by Quinn Loftis
Just One Drop by Quinn Loftis
Out of the Dark by Quinn Loftis
The Vincent Boys by Abbi Glines

This was fun that's for sure.  I would definitley do it again.  Thanks for hosting a great Read-a-thon!

#LDRAT Update

 
Just quickly because tomorrow I will most likely not have time to log on because I will be enjoying the last weekend of the summer by the pool.  Doubtfully reading but there is always the before and the after for that.

Update
Finished one book last night but started on second will be done with that one tonight and will be starting the third which will most likely be completed by tomorrow night then hopefully I can get into one of my fourth book choices which right now I'm leaning towards The Selection.

Just not sure if I will finish that book though.  Cross fingers cause it's been hard trying to get some peace and quiet here.

 
You know when I was younger my mom used to call me alll the time for every little thing.  I am the only girl so of course anything that needed to be done in the house was on my shoulders if she needed help (Don't get offended if I said of course it's just the way my family is and our culture I guess anyway).  So it would constantly be Cathy this, Cathy that and just plain a yell of Cathy! Well I told her when I was younger that I wanted to change my name so then she wouldn't know what to call me lol.  Anyway now I am a mother and instead of being called Cathy this Cathy that now it's Mom my sister did this, Mom my sister did that. Mom I need this Mom I want this and that and Mom Mom Mom.  So I told my oldest daughter today who is six, you know what I think I'm going to change my name, I'm not going to be called Mom anymore.  So then she proceeds to tell me no your name is Cathy.  LOL I just about died with laughter on that comment because the constant need to other people is what I will always be.  I will always be the go to person, but still the things that comes out of kids mouths.  Too funny.  I just will never lose that whole Cathy this Cathy that scenario lol ha.

Just wanted to throw that little funny tidbit in there thought it might make you chuckle a little ha, I said chuckle LOL. 

Hope everyone is having a great weekend and see you all back on Tuesday!

(#LDRAT) Labor Day Read-A-Thon:The Goals



I've never joined a read-a-thon and in reality I don't know how well I will fare as my life at home is hectic at best.  But I will attempt to complete this the best I can.  Below are my goals for this Read-A-Thon.  Will give an update when it's over. Most likely on Monday when I have more time and hopefully a couple books finished and reviewed of course.

My Goals are to read the following books this long holiday weekend and really I think I will be able to do it:


 And if I have time I will try to start on one of these books, I just haven't decided which one yet.



Wish me luck and if you want to join me in my endeavours click on the picture below!
