This looks like a great book - and I found it on ebookr too!! :) I would love to join in!
 
I bought this book last year and read just a few pages... perfect way for me to get back into my reading this year!

I'm in :)
 
I just purchased the 5 yr journal that goes along with it - due to arrive and can't wait to dive into it. Guess this would be a good reason to go ahead and get the book too! :-)
 
I got the book on my Kindle and started reading tonight. I'm partway through January and this lady is SERIOUSLY stepping on my toes.

I mean, really.

...I'm even headed to finish cleaning out my closet (a task I started a couple of weeks ago).
 
Oh yay! I have this book already! I started reading it a few months back but didn't get very far. Time to get it back out!
 
Oh I read this book over a year ago and had an uh, interesting, reaction to it, haha. Will be interesting to see what others have to say about it!
 
The February chapter is a little harder for me to click with right now.

The topic of Marriage isn't really where I'm at right now- I don't have a husband for this chapter. I think a few of her ideas there are a bit strange or antiquated, but maybe it's just how she's worded it. I did find a lot of tips for fighting fair that help in my household, though-- after all, who doesn't need help in fighting fair?

I'm enjoying the book so far, for the most part. She and I have disagreed on a few points, but for the most part, I'm tracking with it.

Oh. And she grew up in KC and comes and visits her family here a couple of times a year... cool!
 
Started this last night and so far I'm really enjoying it. I'm just getting into April now. She's really making me feel bad and I want to clean out closets and be extra nice to my DH now. :) I even bought baskets while I was at Wal-Mart tonight to organize the medicine cabinet. :)
 
I admit..I'm having a hard time getting into it..i hate when this happens b/c I WANT to read and like it..but eh

I push on...
 
I wanted to get this book last week, I forget to check in and see what the book club book was, lol! I need to go to the library this week anyway, maybe I'll see if it's available. I'd love to read it on my kindle but I'm not spending $10 for it.
 
I'm about 50% through and I am really loving it. I find myself making notes on passages in the Kindle, which I never do. I'm really interested to see how December comes together for her.
 
I feel like a slacker- I'm still trekking through March. It's a good book, but I'm trying to find time. Lol, it seems every time I pick up the book, I put it down to go work on something. So far I've cleaned my closet a bit, worked on my bathroom, and cleaned a good chunk of our kitchen cabinets last night. Then, I was reading about the blogging and decided "Oh, I haven't blogged in a couple of days," so went and did that... I need to keep my attention span in check.
