I have ten days of sleep-in! Nine now, I suppose, given I just slept in. I swapped shifts with one of my co-workers, meaning I am working only half days, from 11-3. Sleep in, home early. Lovely!
Me being me, I have a list of things I want to do for the week. I think I've gone slightly overboard.
- Read Cancer Ward
- Read The Rights of Man
- Read Requiem for a Nun
- Read The Man Who Mistook His Wife For A Hat
- Read Ring of Bright Water
- Read Revolutions in Worldview
- Read The Feast of July
I'm also hoping to get through several art books, a few cook books, to snd a fair amount of time reading the Bible, and listen to all the audio sermons I have building up on my computer. Over 40 I haven't listened to.
I also hope to cook, to tidy through the house, run a few dozen errands, and clean. And blog about the books. They're a wide range, and I probably won't keep serveral of them - I don't know how I'm going to like Feast of July - it's by H.E. Bates, whose writing I love but whose themes I detest. I picked more 'heavier' books than I normally would, because I have so much more time. It'll be interesting.
On to my reading!

Oh my goodness - how are you going to find time to read ALL that~!!
Well, so far I'm not - I've read 1/5 of Revolutions in Worldview, but none of the others. I did however read A Short History of English Literature, which at 230 pages, wasn't all that short.
But I have about 2 hours of reading time on public transport every day, which quickly adds up. But I don't think I'm quite going to make it. Oh well... there is next week.
