So we left for Arizona last Tuesday morning. I had a lot to pack to get ready to go...me, 2 kids, food for the drive, and all the baby essentials that Katie would need, set up the DVD player in the car, pack music and DVDs, baby stuff for my sister-in-law (whom we were visiting along with Mike's mom), etc, etc, etc.
Early Tuesday morning as we headed out of town I was going over my mental list to make sure we had everything...yep we had everything. We were driving along 99, just out of Bakersfield and I was thinking to myself that I still needed to finish my book for bookclub (which I had packed). Wait! Book for bookclub...book...Breaking Dawn book! Alas! I had forgotten my Breaking Dawn book of which I just had been reading the night before and could not finish the last 56 pages. I put in on the shelf on my nightstand like I always do thinking that I would just take it with me to Arizona and finish it there (I get carsick so I couldn't read it in the car). In all the packing madness, not to mention the early morning rise and drive, I had forgotten my Breaking Dawn book. I spent the last week in Arizona so mad at myself! I couldn't wait to get home so I could finish it.
We got home last night, and at about 10pm finally had some time to myself to read it. Needless to say that I didn't even get through a chapter. No time today to read (unpack, laundry, picked up dog from kennel, took dog to get groomed, grocery shopping, kids...). So I am determined to finish it tonight! I am probably the last person in the world to still be reading it.

Nope Krista.... I'm still reading it. I have about 100 pages left. Heidi didn't even start reading Twilight until right before Breaking Dawn came out. She has read Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse and several chapters into Breaking Dawn and I am still trying to finish it! So I'm there with you sistah.... trying to finish....
ReplyDeleteKrista...I think that I win the award for just cracking open Twilight. My sister just gave me the first 3 books to read a couple of weeks ago and I haven't heard of them until then. That is how out of the loop I am! I am a slow reader so I think that I will be good for the rest of the year! I had another series to finish up before I started this one! I know it is all the rage. Oh well...here's to being the very last to get into the loop!
