..to never to leave a library book in the toilet, even if it is in the magazine rack, and as far away from water possible.

There is still a probability you will wake up to a soaked, ripped, torn, shredded pile of paper from what was once the treasured library book, courtesy of two one naughty kittens (and one bitch of a cat).

The competetion that I entered last month has finally announced the top 5 finalists.

And I got in! *woot*

Please vote for me and help me win, it would be greatly appreciated. There are other entries that are really good too, so I am surprised I got in. You don’t have to vote for me if you like another entry better, but it would be really really appreciated and I will love you forever if you could vote for me.

Voting this way please.

I am the second one there (The Domino Effect) in case you don’t realise.

Last week I bought and read Jill Smolinksi’s The Next Thing On My List. It was a great book, I don’t want to spoil it though, but I do highly recommend it.

Ever since reading it, I have felt inspired to write my own list. Sort of like a new years resolution except not on new years, but for things to complete before the end of this year. At first I chose to complete it by my birthday (Oct) but thought it was a little too early.

So far on my list I have four things.

• Donate blood to the red-cross (because I have an intense fear of needles and blood tests - but I know I can help someone out there, since I have the most wanted blood type)
• Read 100 books. Since writing this list, I have read 4 novels and 1 “how-to” book. I plan to also write the list of books with mini-reviews for each story and give them a rating.
• Get my drivers license. I can drive, well I used to 3 years aog, then my car was stolen and I never drove since. Even though I know have a nice new car, I am scared to drive it because it is so wide, and no body wants to “teach” me. I will save for lessons if I have to.
• Learn to knit. I have always wanted to know. My sister has been trying to teach me but she goes too fast, and I get confused with all the threads and everything. I can sew anything, yet when it comes to knitting I am useless.

I need to think of 16 more for my list, and accomplish them all. If you had a list, what would be on it?
