#FitReaders Check-In

  • This check-in is for December 8th – 14th.
  • I’m fully enjoying the holiday season now and am out of my funk! I got all of my Christmas shopping done, found a few more decorations to put up around the house, and I’ve been watching Christmas movies while drinking hot chocolate and keeping a fire crackling a long in the fireplace.

#FitReaders Check-In

  • This check-in is for December 1st – 7th.
  • I’ve been trying to get into the holiday spirit, but, thanks to my back, I’m struggling. I finally got the Christmas decorations up yesterday, and I’m reading a couple of Christmas-themed books, but nothing is helping me get out of this funk I’m in.

#FitReaders Check-In

  • This check-in is for November 24th – 30th.
  • I was in Texas for most of this week having a great time with family and friends for Thanksgiving. I ate way too much food, most of it not very healthy, and I am OK with that!

#FitReaders Check-In

  • This check-in is for November 17th – 23rd.

#FitReaders Check-In

  • This check-in is for November 10th – 16th.
  • I’m sick AGAIN, but this time it seems to be a stomach bug. Whatever it is, I need to be over it well before Thanksgiving because I’m not sticking to the BRAT diet during the holidays.

#FitReaders Check-In

  • This check-in is for November 3rd – 9th.
  • I was out of town this weekend and couldn’t post anything (the hotel’s wi-fi wasn’t good at all). I had a blast at the Ironton Wizard Festival and then went to the Moth Man Museum in Point Pleasant, WV before finally returning home yesterday afternoon. It was a fantastic and fun trip, but I was exhausted when I got home.
  • I’ve passed the 700-mile marker for the Charity Challenge! While I won’t be reaching 1k miles this year, I’ll still be able to hit my goal of 850 miles with a bit of work.

#FitReaders Check-In

  • This check-in is for October 27th – November 2nd.
  • I was sick most of the week with a sinus infection that turned into bronchitis, so I haven’t been doing much beyond reading and eating a lot of soup.

#FitReaders Check-In

  • This check-in is for October 20th – 26th.
  • I mostly read yesterday since it was Dewey’s 24-Hour #Readathon, but I also went with my boyfriend and a friend who is visiting on a night-time cemetery tour. I went on the same tour by myself last year and loved it, and it was just as good this year.
  • I got the results of my labs, and while some of the numbers weren’t great, they were better than last year, so I’m taking that as a win.

#FitReaders Check-In

  • This check-in is for October 13th – 19th.
  • I did nothing but read yesterday since the #FrightFall readathon started at 10 a.m. and ended at 10 a.m. this morning. I made it until a little after midnight and then finished the readathon by reading for a couple of hours after I woke up.
  • I made apple butter during the readathon. It made the whole house smell amazing while it simmered in the crockpot. It tastes as amazing as it smells. I’m going to make it again next year if we go apple-picking.
  • I had my annual checkup this week. I’m still waiting on the results of my labs, but I hope the numbers look considerably better than last year.

#FitReaders Check-In

  • This check-in is for October 6th – 12th.
  • My boyfriend and I went to a Halloween market and then to lunch yesterday. Everything was close to a parking garage near where I work, so we parked there and walked everywhere instead of trying to find street parking closer to the market and then the restaurant. We did a lot of walking, but not too much, and the weather was perfect.
  • I also got the rest of the Halloween decorations up yesterday while we waited for it to get dark so we could watch a couple of Horror movies. We watched two of my favorites, “The Lost Boys” and “Jeepers Creepers” while eating popcorn and a couple of the apples we picked at the orchard. Though I had wanted to go to an all-night Horror movie marathon, I’m glad I didn’t. There’s no way I would have had the energy to be in a movie theater all night.
