2025 Yuletide Spirit 24 in 48 Readathon -Updated

 

Okay peoples! I'm going to be joining this lil challenge/thon thing this weekend! I DO have work and I AM sick but I will do my best! This here ole readathon is a laid back kind of deal. You aim to read 24 hours in a 48 hour timeframe. I'll have my timer on my phone and do my best to squeeze in as much reading as I can in between work and whatever the weekend flings my way. (Probably naps and coughing!)

I'll do a few lil updates during the weekend to update on my progress. I am hoping to finish up The Drawing of The Three by Stephen King.

So first up: 


Starting on page: 110

Join in the fun if you want! 


UPDATE:

I finished The Drawing of the Three. I didn't read for 24 hours but I did manage to hit 17 hours total read so I count that as a win!

December Doohickies Day 20

 

So some sort of bug has gotten me. I'm not feeling the greatest at the moment. Still have to work and of course take care of the Lady but that's pretty much where my energy has been spent. I did read a little bit yesterday but not enough to be remarkable. 

I don't know if it's the flu or some other bug. My symptoms are all over the place, but I'm doing my best to kick it. 

Today I have my usual Saturday work load and my usual chores ( I tend to plan chores light on Saturday). So I will try to read around my shifts and stuff. 

Still reading The Drawing of The Three, Mistborn and the Borgias.

December Doohickies Day 18

 

I went awol for a bit but that was because I was locked the EFF in! I finished up The Gunslinger, got started on The Drawing of The Three (book 2) and wrote out some notes for my upcoming reviews. I am going to start posting those in January. 

I also set a very basic schedule for myself for today (test run day) and as of now it's worked! I have been such a lazy ass..not moving much except when I needed to, eating too much, and just being a blob. So I decided that enough was enough and I need to stick with a schedule as best as I can! I've already hit the treadmill, did some stretches and have done my morning chores! 

So now I am going to relax with some coffee and read a bit. 

My goals for today reading wise:

TDoTT : 50 pages
Mistborn: 20 minutes reading (i don't know how to calculate pages with an ebook)
The Borgias: 25 pages (it's a history so that always goes slow)

I do have to work later and I will have to do some things for the Lady today, but I am going to push through and get all the gettin' done!


I am also going to focus on eating good food that's healthy and filling. Drinking more water and logging my foods into my app. Not exactly cutting out anything in particular but definitely focusing on actual food instead of junk. I am ashamed at how many honeybuns I ate yesterday! (I mean not really cuz they are delicious but it was far too many in one day!)

So how about you? What are you doing to wrap up the year?

December Doohickies Day 16th


 Is it just me or is this month zipping by so so fast? I think even 2025 is sick of its crap! 

So I didn't post yesterday, but I did get a good bit of reading done. I was just really really tired so I did the bare bare minimum. 

Today I have lots of extra hours at work, but I should be able to squeeze some more reading in. I think I am on track to finish up The Gunslinger by Wednesday! I'm thinking once that one is done then I'll slide into the 2nd book in the series. 

The other two books have kinda fallen to the wayside, the Gunslinger is a disjointed mess but for some reason I'm intrigued and pulled in. We shall see if the next book continues like that or not. 

How's the weather there where you are? It's freezing here but supposedly it'll warm up just a little bit. We shall see!

December Doohickies Day 14th

 

I hope you have had yourself a great weekend so far! I'm finishing up some chores and then sitting down to read more. I've gotten started on The Gunslinger, which as of now is a bit confusing..but I've seen that this is common when starting the Dark Tower series. You either have to push through or skip to the 2nd book because there's a recap at the start. I'm thinking in order to get all the back story and world building familiarized, that I'll just push through. 

I'm also going to try to get more read in Mistborn. 

The Gunslinger isn't that long of a book, so I am hoping to have it finished before or by Wednesday. I'm starting to really feel like my goal of 5 books by the end of the month is going to be very possible! 

What have you been reading this weekend?
