My reading seems to be picking up lately but with the holidays coming up I guess we'll see.<BR/><BR/>Trish-it was real slow going for me through Anna Karenina.

It's not the book, just me. On an average I read 2 pages ever 3 mins (I wish I was faster!) but some times I'll be lucky to finish a book in a week.<BR/><BR/>So don't worry about it. You have all week to either practice or relax. Either way, better luck next week!Alexis Moonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08015742132637410007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31135028.post-50349487936614540362007-11-05T13:32:00.000-08:002007-11-05T13:32:00.000-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Alexis Moonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08015742132637410007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31135028.post-58322844972162479152007-11-05T12:33:00.000-08:002007-11-05T12:33:00.000-08:00My problem was that I was so tired I kept falling ...My problem was that I was so tired I kept falling asleep after each paragraph.

I've been using a kitchen timer to see exactly what it is: it's interrupted *constantly*, of course, so I can turn it on and off with ease. So I managed slightly over an hour of reading yesterday spread out over the whole day....dhamelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09643803329168751156noreply@blogger.com
