Reading Challenge

The flu hit our house last Saturday. My husband and my little one came down with it about a day apart. She got hit the hardest. I came down with it a few days ago but didn’t get hit hard and am already feeling much better. During this time I’ve had a hard time sleeping and have been reading more. I finished a book that I stated in October of 2025. I just started another one that is very short and am half way through it. It’s about local ghost stories and I am very bored by it. I saw our local library system is doing a winter reading challenge so just signed my little one and I up. She won the summer one with over 1000 hours read. This would be a county wide one not just for our little local library so I don’t expect to win but I figure it’ll be an incentive to get me reading more. Photo is unrelated and is just my Kitty being naughty.

The kitty looks so cute! My oldest niece came down with the flu a couple of days ago. I don’t know how the rest of them will keep from getting it. The reading challenge sounds like fun.

@AmbiePam it’s been 6 days and both my little one and my husband are still sick. Every day I hope the following day they will wake up and be all better. I am mostly over it.

That's a good competition. Kitty has his own home

@wolfgirl569 I wonder what we will win if either of us does win. I don’t expect we will but it’s a good healthy challenge right

What a great dollhouse! I wish I had one like that when I was little.

@snowy22315 it’s giant. It’s big enough for her Barbie’s to live in.

What a lovely Kitty and he's chosen a very pretty place to rest. What a great doll's house. I bet your little one loves it. I hope you're all fully recovered soon.

The flu is really bad here, I’m sorry your family was sick. Kitty appears to be saying “ This is my house!”
