Well this is how I spent the final hour of the read-a-thon...not the 24th hour, mind you, but my final hour which would have been around the 15th hour...reading Herriot and drinking a dark cherry hot chocolate. It was bliss and then I was blissfully tired and then I found blissful sleep, for the next ten hours. I had the best intentions of getting up early to be a part of the last few hours but didn't quite make it. All in all, I think this was the most relaxed read-a-thon I have had. I took many breaks, visited other participants and took part in some of the mini-challenges, read many different things, slept when needed, and ended on the happy note of Herriot once again coming under the spell of Granville Bennett (or is it under the spell of the drink, maybe both). So thank you to the awesome organizers, the cheerleaders and those who read along with me. What a grand time!

Wait a minute. I didn't even realize you're back until now! I'm sorry about that, I guess I've been hidden away in my own little world. I'm off to add you to my bloglist, and I must say I'm thrilled. I've missed you, Stacey.
Welcome back Stacy! I hope you are well. So good to see you posting again :-) I love the new look and will spend time reading your latest entries. Your shelves are gorgeous and I still adore your little white and blue cow. I shall be stopping by again. Take care!
Sounds like another readathon success story. Hope to participate officially one of these times...
Bellezza - Thank you for your kind words...and I am so glad to be back:)
Rochester Reader - Thank you! The little cow was lonely, so I thought I get her a friend but I fear that soon I may have a herd:)
JoAnn - Every time I hope you will be able to join but I know how life is:)
You have amazed me yet again, Stacy! Good on you for hanging in there as long as you did thanks to some delicious sounding beverages and friends. And I really enjoyed you sharing your book stash.
Enjoy the rest of your day!
Darlene - Thank you:)
