Dewey's Readathon!!

Hour - 0

Good morning/afternoon/evening,

I'm running a little late this morning. By the time this posts, Dewey's will have started. So, I'm going to hurry and type as fast as my little fingers will go.

1) I am reading from Michigan, United States.
2) I am most looking forward to finishing The Fall of the Dragon Prince by Dan Allen, I am currently only 1% into the book.
3) I am most looking forward to some Sweet & Sour Starburst candies!!
4) A little something about myself...last month I celebrated my 1 year anniversary as husband and wife. We've actually been together now for a little over 17 years; we started dated as softmores in high school.
5) Something I'm doing different this time, I'm considering joining more of the mini-challenges, and updating this post as we go along with the readathon.

Hour - 2

1 hour down, I've been listening to Stormdancer by Jay Kristoff. I now have a little over 30 minutes left (I've been listening at 1.25 speed). My husband has just gotten up and our dog AJ is currently frolicking in the yard. I can already tell, I'm going to need some time once Stormdancer is done to collect myself.

Hour - 3

I'm posting this a little early...technically there is still 10 minutes before hour 3 starts. I am working to recover from finishing Stormdancer. I'm not sure if the ending got to me more because of something that happened earlier this week in my current life...but either way, I'm having almost an out of body experience. I don't really feel like I'm here. Not sure if that makes sense or not, but it's the best I can do to explain how I'm feeling.

So I've been watching and catching up on some YouTube videos, and am starting to feel more myself.

Hour - 5

I missed updating at the start of hour 4, and here we are now going on hour 5. I've started Poison Study by Maria V Snyder. I'm almost an hour into the book.

I've also broken into my Sweet & Sour Starbursts already. While listening to Poison Study I've been getting some house chores done, mostly cleaning up.

Hour - 7

I started reviewing documents for work, and now need a break. I'm going to get up and go for a jog I think. I'm supposed to be training for a 5k, but with everything going on this week I haven't gone out since Sunday.

Hour - 17

Been a while since I updated...I was running late to get to my friend's bachelorette party. Just got back a little while ago. Finished editing and posted my video for the day. Now I think it's time for some sleep. My eyes are getting tired, and my husband and dog are already sleeping. The real reason is the house is tooooooo quiet. It irks me. So I'll go sleep until either the dog comes to get me to go out, or I wake up on my own. I've been having some crazy dreams lately and waking myself up, so it's possible I'll see you again in a few hours.

Hour -24

Laying awake in bed, so thought I'd get up for the final hour and read some Fall of the Dragon Prince by Dan Allen.

Hour - The End

I managed to read about 4% more of Fall of the Dragon Prince. In total I read 4% of Fall of the Dragon Prince, finished what was left of Stormdancer by Jay Kristoff, and started Poison Study by Maria V Snider for a total listening time of 4 hours 55 minutes, and about 2 hours of work document review.

Not my best readathon, but I did also go to a fantastic bachelorette party!! Looking forward to October already ;-) . For now though...I'm going back to bed. G'night!
