Stacking the Shelves #170 Sunday Post #167, Sunday Salon #161

Hey my bookish friends! How was your week? Our house went on the market last Friday, and we had a contract on Monday, it is contingent on them selling their house. We still have not found a new house for us yet, but I am praying we do and don't have to go into a rental! We had a nice visit with my sister and her family. My son is still sick, and now my husband and I are as well. Right now we both seem to have a milder version of whatever my son has. We have a house inspection on our house today and plan to go hang out in a library we have not visited yet 😁. Other than that, the weekend plans are to chill and get to feeling better.

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. Selling a house, finding another, packing up, and moving all sounds very stressful. I hope everything goes easily and according to plan.
