Stacking the Shelves #155, Sunday Post #152, Sunday Salon #146

Hey my bookish friends! How was your week? Mine was busy and long. My daughter ended up sick so I was teaching all the classes for our business. I ended up canceling Friday's classes because I was having dizzy spells and just didn't feel great. I am teaching this morning, and we are trying Saturday evening Church instead of Sunday morning, so we'll see how that goes, but that means we can stay in all day Sunday and rest and relax. 

Stacking The Shelves is all about sharing the books you are adding to your shelves, may it be physical or virtual. This means you can include books you buy in physical store or online, books you borrow from friends or the library, review books, gifts and of course ebooks! And audiobooks. The Stacking the Shelves meme is hosted at Reading Reality.

  1. You had a pretty hectic week, but I hope your daughter is feeling better now and that you can enjoy that much-needed rest on Sunday! I love the idea behind Stacking the Shelves—it's always fun to see what books everyone is adding to their collections. It’s impressive that you managed to finish 6 books despite everything going on! I’m looking forward to reading your reviews, especially for the ones you’re still working on. Hope you have a relaxing weekend ahead with some great reading time!

  2. I hear there is flu going around and hope you both feel better soon. Guess we might have to bring out those face masks in the back drawers soon.

    1. Harvee, my daughter had/has a bad cold, thankfully no body aches. I am not sure what my issue was, but it wasn't long lasting!

  9. It sounds like you had a long week. How are you feeling now? Dizzy spells sound terrible! Your Stash and Smash and Granny Square Sourcebook caught my eye. I searched for Delighting in Jesus and found it on Amazon. Thank you for sharing! I hope you’re feeling better!

  20. I know so many people who are sick right now with one kind of flu or another. I hope your daughter is feeling better soon and that she can help with the work. And I hope your Saturday night church works out well for you, too.

    I shall be on the lookout for Stash and Smash---a type of junk journaling, I think.

    1. Deb, yes, it is junk journaling, you will enjoy the book. I got it from the library, maybe yours has a copy as well.
