Day 44/365: When Will I Finish War and Peace

The downside of twelve hour shifts is it takes a bit longer for you to have that first taste of spring. Working a day shift means I still start work in the dark and by the time I leave... it's still dark. My fellow 9-5ers have probably started noticing the days growing ever so slightly longer, but for me we're not quite there yet. 

On the upside, I get more time off to counter the increased hours I worked, so there's that I suppose. 

As the year goes on I'm slowly coming to the realisation that I probably won't finish War and Peace as quick as I hoped. At first, I hoped to finish it in a month, then by the end of my Lithuania trip, then before I go on my next trip in a couple of weeks. My next goal is to finish it before Layla and I go to America and that is doable, but still difficult! 

I will likely start picking up other books, especially for my next trip around France, Monaco, and Malta I will take an Anthony Bourdain book with me. It would be rude not to read a bit of Bourdain while travelling around France.
