Read with Me Check-in: June 12th

This is going to be short and sweet because I have a lot of packing to do today. Guess what — We should be in our new house before the month is out! :D Wahoo!!! I’ll fill you in on it soon. In the meantime …

How’s everyone doing? Are you still with us?

Rick has been doing a read-through as well, but he’s been on a chronological program rather than the one I’m doing. This week he decided he needed some poetics and New Testament to balance out the Old Testament. We’re trying to get on the same page, so we can be reading the same passages each day. I’m trying to catch up to where he is in the Old Testament. and he’s trying to catch up to where I am in Psalms and the New Testament. (I’m up-to-date in the Gospels.) I must confess he’s doing much better at catching up than I am. We can thank his two hours on the train every day. He almost read through the entire book of Matthew just yesterday!

I gotta pick it up because lil ol’ me is still in Numbers. Yes, yes, I know that by the end of June, even on my own schedule, I should be done with 2 Kings.

I’m working on it and still determined to meet our January 1st deadline. I’ll get there! Fortunately for me, we will have some time living with my in-laws in between houses, so that coupled with the long drive down there should give me plenty of time to read. At least that’s my plan.

The less disciplined, more ADD side of me, however, dreams of all the museums and parks we can visit during our short stay in Philadelphia. Hmmm …

So, talk to me! Are you still with me?

  1. I’m still trucking along. I’m abut 2 days behind right now (I’m in Job), but I’ve been doubling up (I was about a week behind) and hope to be caught back up next week. It’s amazing how much of a habit this has become first thing in the morning!

  2. Thank you so much for heading up this challenge & checking in w/us. Also, how wonderful to have a spouse who reads along, too. I can’t imagine. I am so proud of myself bc, at this moment, the girl who follows thru w/nothing is caught up! Thank You, Jesus!

  3. I am with you and hanging on by a thread! Matt and I are still trying to have “quiet time” after the older 4 are in bed…we got a bit out of the habit after our littlest one arrived. I have also decided today that once everyone is settled for the morning I am going to take about 30 min of “me” time and read the Bible and drink my coffee. I desperately want my kids to see me reading the Word, so they realize it is important to me…so here goes~ off to read and fuel up! :)
