I'm trying to let myself be a little less formal, so I can have more time to write my OWN books. Informal reviews that are more personal engagement with the book can be more fun and less time consuming. Most of my War and Peace posts were written fairly quickly.Jenna St. Hilairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04474588706124865006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7213497123935819288.post-47242735809170698522014-01-06T14:31:13.135-05:002014-01-06T14:31:13.135-05:00Please do Hannah!!!!

I miss you - and praying 'together' is <i>almost</i> as good as catching up over Bellinis or coffee!..almost..but not quite.<br /><br />I think you're right about everyone having that same basic struggle..days don't have enough hours..except the days that have <i>too many</i> hours..and those are the worst. What are your plans for the New Year?????

Seth will kill me if I back out now...I'm having images of snowstorms trapping us for days on the way down, but I'm sure it's all in my head!<br /><br />Panicking at 5pm is normal for me too..but probably shouldn't be.

Most of mine are half-asleep and way too late as well!<br /><br />I LOVE Dream journals...I should get back into that as well..dreams are so interesting!<br /><br />And yeah, I do need to blog more about the books I've been reading - I LOVE that you do that every week! How long do those posts usually take??? I imagine them being like mini-book reports and so kind of dread the thought of being judged on them ;)Mashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06943998810222103926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7213497123935819288.post-6261955089117363372014-01-04T20:56:53.234-05:002014-01-04T20:56:53.234-05:00:-)!:-)!Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09608024995056265640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7213497123935819288.post-90712617779962927302014-01-04T20:55:39.654-05:002014-01-04T20:55:39.654-05:00I love your list Em!

Trying to put more regular prayer time in my life. Gosh, doesn't it seem like we all struggle with the same basic challenge and frustration... not having enough time in the day and struggling to use that limited time in a way most in line with our priorities, goals, dreams, etc.Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09608024995056265640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7213497123935819288.post-15759909311003963122014-01-04T18:32:00.022-05:002014-01-04T18:32:00.022-05:00P.S.

I don't know anything about that particular title of Our Lady, but I can look it up. And I should get back to saying the Angelus at noon... and I would kind of love to join in your praying the Divine Mercy chaplet every day. I am not great at sticking with one form of prayer, but when I can make it a habit... and I did love praying it as a novena.<br /><br />Good reminder that journaling is a worthwhile way of spending time... I forget that, but I NEED to journal sometimes.<br /><br />And one very good way to write down your thoughts about all the books you read is to blog about them. ;DJenna St. Hilairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04474588706124865006noreply@blogger.com
