My name is Annie

and I am a member of Bloggers Anonymous. Well, I don't know if that exists, but if it did, I would be a member. I have been a dreadfully bad blogger. Of course since I am with family, I can always use that excuse, but to be honest I would blame it on the mouse. The computer in my parent's house is an ancient article and you pay for the Internet by the minute. I know, a very novel concept for the rest of the world. And the mouse, it is enough to give all the mice in the rest of the world a bad name.
When all is said and done, the reason is I am busy sleeping and eating. I am so lazy that I am not even commenting on the few blogs that I actually managed to visit. I am growing fat with the food of the land. And my stomach has bloated to such proportions with this lifestyle that I look about 3 months pregnant. I hope my dear husband will recognize me when I get back.
It is a very rambly, no point post the kind you have come to expect from my blog. Thank you everyone for your sweet comments and emails. I will get back to everyone as soon as I can (when I get back). Hope all of you had a wonderful Christmas and New Year. I made a list of my goals for 2008. I think it is the first time I am doing this. There are only 4 main things which I am listing.
  • Read the entire Bibe by March 31
  • Walk every morning for half an hour
  • Set up a flower and vegetable garden
  • Read 50 books this year

The garden has already been started by my father-in-law, so that goal is well in running. I have already read 2 books this year, so that is off to a good start. I am a little behind on the Bible reading and I hoping to catch up today. Walking has not happened a single day and I am hoping to do it once I am back home.

It has been fun reading the goals some of you have listed. I will mostly stay off online until I get back.

Have a wonderful time, everyone!

Yay! You're sort of back. ;)

Sounds like you're doing a similar Bible-reading-schedule as me -- did you get it from Mrs B's blog? It is pretty intense, but I'm enjoying it.

And being an anonymous blogger, why is your post titled with your name, was there a reason to say out your name and if so, why was it not revealed in your post :)

Sounds like you are enjoying your break from home! ;)
Wish I could get away for a few weeks and do nothing but eat and sleep....oh the wonderful time it would be! ;) lol..
Actually, I would just love to have a moment to read a book. Have not read since starting this job. Sad, I know!

I'm glad to hear from you! You've been missed, but I'm so glad you're enjoying time with your family!

I've been thinking I need to make a goal to read X-number of books. I used to read books like crazy, but the internet distracts me far too much, and I do most of my reading there these days. Not good.

Hope you have a safe trip home!
