Awake

It is before 8am and for some unidentified reason I am awake. Not just awake but awake and aware and unable to go back to sleep. Why is it that you wait and wait for some time off to sleep in and when you do get said time off you wake up before the sun?

You see, I am on "vacation." Why the quotes? Well, I did have vacation plans but they fell through. After a considerable amount of sulking I decided I was going on vacation anyway. The kids were sent to their dad's and I have been home alone. I sleep when I want, read when I want. It has been very restful so far. If I couldn't get out of town and have a break, then this is just what I needed.

Just a few moments ago, after I awoke, I stayed in bed and finished Messenger. Because this is the third book in the series, if you want to call it that, I didn't think I would be commenting on it. But after actually reading it there is a lot more I can say than I thought I would be able to without spoiling.

Yesterday I finished The Secret Scroll and am still working on a review for it. This book was given to me to be reviewed (my first one!) I want to make sure I do a good job with it.

Today I am starting The Nanny Diaries and I have two days before my vacation is over.

Wish me luck.
