In the past few years, I have set a goal for myself. There was the one about running a 5K, the other one about reading 52 books in 52 weeks.
This year, I decided I am going to read The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien. I have never read them. I've thought about it several times and tried once, but it has never happened.
After my dear friend Jenny suggested I read Atlas Shrugged (a massively long and amazing book) I realized that I can read anything!!!
I found myself an old battered set of books at the DI (local thrift store). The pages are yellowed, the covers are faded and they have that timeless smell of an old book store. I have seen the movies, so I have an idea of what to expect, but I can NOT WAIT to get lost in the magical world that Tolkien has created!
Oh, and my other goal is to knit something!! hahahah
