Its the week of finishing things....
Mar. 16th, 2012 07:35 amThe beginning of the week seemed kinda dire and Tuesday I was having panicked moments of thinking I'm going to fail to get anything accomplished. Well, I just buckled down and got things done. It wasn't easy but I managed. So, by the end of today I will have released the 4th report of the week (medium sized 10-15 page things) and I've read a lot this week.
I was reading book #6 of the year which was Dragon Bone and I'm intrigued enough about the world to read the next one when I find it. I also finished listening to Dracula on the Craftlit Podcast. Faboo story telling there. Seriously. Bram Stoker had a knack. So I'm counting that as #7 since it was a full book and I did more reading around the world and the text since its Craftlit. BTW, if you want to miss the crafty stuff in Craftlit, Heather is doing Just the Books which is just the audio of the book discussion and chapters. Go look it up on Itunes or her website Just the Books. The next book is Gulliver's Travels and it starts in April.
The next book I read I read to Benton last night. I wasn't going to count kids books but this one is popular right now due to its movie and I had never read it as a kid. So #8 is The Lorax by Dr. Suess. I picked it up at Toys R Us for half price on Wednesday. I started thinking about it and I didn't read a lot of Suess as a kid. I read almost all of the "I Can Read" Series but not Suess. Not sure why but I think part of it was that they weren't available to me and second...going back to reading them I think my dad probably didn't like them due to all of the nonsense words and my take now is some of them are a bit creepy and not in my normal creep I like. I don't want to limit Benton so we are reading all types of things but I'm sure we will have to have discussions about the themes of some books etc.
So, I've written and released 4 reports this week, finished 3 books and I even sat down and worked on the Ravens for the Hrafn cloaks last night and got a reasonable ways in the 2.25 hours I put in. I'm feeling much better about that task than I did even Thursday am so I think if I work hard I can manage to meet my goals on that for the war.
Tonight is laying out the baronial land with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
zippydclown and Aleyd and then that task will be done. The land layout will be interesting since its the first time we've laid things out at that site and its always odd the first year while we figure out the dynamics of things and movement of vehicles etc. I hope the roads have good turn radii for large vehicles and trailers..that is always and issue. Well, off to work and release that final report and get some emergency paperwork flowing down the pipe. All good.
