Friday Follows

By Barb Drozdowich

Happy Friday everyone.  Since this is the last Friday of the year, Parajunkee is suggesting we list our Bookish Resolutions.  This is a post that was cruising around earlier this week and was hosted by Melissa  from My World…in words and pages. If you are interested in hooking up to her linky – click on the link.

Here are my resolutions for 2011:

1. Clean up my office and keep it tidy. Sadly, I’ve already spent a few hours on this mess!   I have to find some way of organizing the books and keep my office from being the dumping zone of the house.

2. Organize my books.  I’ve entered a whole bunch of challenges to help me work my way through my TBR piles and now I need to gather all the books to one area – rather than have books all over the place 🙂

3. Organize my time better.  I just keep thinking that if my office is more user friendly and I can find things easier I will be better organized.  I think I need to make a schedule for the week.  We’ll work on that.

4. Read more books and write more reviews.  I really don’t know how many books I read last year.  I’m planning on getting a Nook (or maybe a Kindle) in the new year – mostly because there were no screaming sales this week to encourage me to move sooner – and that will help me with my reading.  Right now, I read ebooks on my laptop and that is just too hard on my eyes!

What are your resolutions for 2011??

Java at Never Growing Old hosts a 40 and over Follow Friday.  There aren’t any questions to answer here, just head over there and link up your blog.

Other follows I’m wandering through:)

If you drop by for a visit, leave a comment to let me know you were here!  Even say hi!

Happy New Years everyone!

    Managing time…I used to be good at that. But I seem to be getting lazier.

    I agree reading books on the computer is hard. I probably will end up getting a kindle sometime this year. Just because that’s what I’ve wanted for quite awhile now.

    Have a good weekend!

      HI Ashley!
      I feel like I’m going blind trying to read on the computer! Hope you have a great new year and enjoy your Kindle!
