Audiobook Challenge 2020

Hosted by Hot Listens and Caffeinated Reviewer

I'm joining the #2020AudiobookChallenge

I'm aiming for: Level ~ Stenographer (10-15)

I used to listen to audios all the time, but now that I'm not listening each night with the kids (they're adults now) or delivering the newspaper, I just can't seem to carve out any time to listen. And since I don't live alone I can't exactly put a book on, out loud, while I clean. However, I bought a new 7" Fire just so I could have Audible. My old 1st gen Fire doesn't support that app anymore, so the new one should be perfect. It would be even better if I had some wireless headphones, but I didn't get any for Christmas. I guess I just need to buy them for myself. What else is new? *shrugs* I'm going to attempt 1 audiobook a month which seems a reasonable number to me since I'm trying to get back into the swing of listening. Plus, I'd like to get back on the treadmill, so 1 book a month should work to keep me occupied. We'll see how it goes.

First, I need to clean up the old guestroom that is now the cat room and get stuff out of my way and off the treadmill. I mean, do the cats really need an old car seat box with a blanket in it on top of the treadmill? Well, yeah, they probably do, but it's got to go. lol I wish the room were bigger, but the treadmill and the elliptical take up nearly all of the floor space. Also, we'll see what the podiatrist says about my left foot. I did something to it a few months back when I was mowing and it's not getting any better. It would probably heal if I kept off it and remembered to take ibuprofen on a regular basis. Oh, well. I have appt with him today, so we'll see.
