I love reading too, but just find it so hard to find the time! I have had the same two books on go all year this year!
I read on the bus which is how I get around town so that's my time plus I don't watch a bunch of tv etc so I binge read instead of binge watch.
Yeah this is why I don't have TV. If I have the time I'd rather read.0 -

I take the bus too but rides are usually 15 minutes or less so I rarely would take a book out. At home I prefer TV as I can multi task. I can listen to news while cooking and cleaning and watch something light while online. I can't do anything else while reading.
Also when I read I almost always fall asleep, lol....and often find my mind wanders and then realize I have no idea -what I read on the last four pages and have to go back and re-read (OCD), so I am super slow.0 -

This is apparently quite common now. There have been a few showers at work where we have done this. What was yours?
A book of counting rhymes. I thought about buying two, the rhymes book and Little Men. I may still do it. Little Men is a classic.1 -

Thursday's SL 5x5
We hadn't been to the gym for over a week, and I was feeling it!!! I was supposed to deload, but I didn't. I'm sure that's going to be a decision I regret later.
Squats - 150 lbs. 5x5 THESE WERE ROUGH but I completed them. ALL OF THEM!!! This ties my PR back at the beginning of the year! We'll see if I can progress from here.
Bench - 113 lbs. 5/5/5/4/5 After busting out those squats, this weight felt impossible and on my last rep of my fourth set, I brought the bar down too low for too long and just couldn't push it back up. I'm still happy with my progress, so I wasn't too disappointed.
Rows - 95 lbs. 5x5 This was the only weight that I deloaded on, but it was only for 5 lbs. These felt good, and I should be able to move up to 100 lbs. next time.
We ended up going to the gym with some guys from church and we shut the place down!!! The coolest part about last night was that Mr. Mo and I were giving them lifting advice and that felt AWESOME!!!
Last night was just a great night!!!
Your energy amazes me!1 -
Indeed many of the things in our household are the same way.
At this time it's livable Abe we have other priorities.0 -

I had to split it over 2 years and 2 bonuses. My view was I really needed to do it in case I get laid off (which I always worry about) I needed to have it updated to sell. I'd rather do that when I have a job then when I am panicking about not having a job!2 -

Sometimes I get lost in religion. So many different people talking about their version of how to worship, or what is right or wrong, or all kinds of check boxes that need to be crossed before I am part of the religious crowd. It is funny to study and see, not one religious icon/leader had an established religion at the time of their lives. Buddha, Jesus, Socrates, Muhammad...the religion of these leaders came about through the interruption of man and how a select few wanted to worship or follow their leader. It is counter active to exactly what any of them had in their messages, which was to learn about yourself from within. To individually find how you are to worship, respect, or live to be a light in the world for others. It isn't about a canned lifestyle and facade of religion, but a personal journey and relationship with the world around and within.
I confess, I just hate being told that my questioning everything about what to believe, how to believe, and if I should believe mean that I am somehow wrong.
I dunno.6 -
