Reading challenge, on time

The Restless Flame. I finished Book VII.

The Confessions of St. Augustine. I finished Book X

Augustine was baptized in the Catholic Church. His mother, Monica, died.

I walked to the river on Saturday. Today worked out in the gym.

read and write

For my new assignment I plan to read a novel, The Restless Flame, based on St. Augustine and Confessions of St. Augustine together and write about my progress in this blog. I have to read 13.3 pages a day of The Confession which is 395 pages and read 10 pages a day of the Restless flame which is 303 pages to finish both books in one month. I'll start the reading on Monday.

We emptied the shelves of books because we had to paint the room. Now we  put the books back , the painting had finished. We also selected the books that I could take to our local library for the book sale by the Friends of Library. I had 3 boxes full of books.  Spring declutter.
