Hey, my bookish friends!! How are you all doing? I did not mean to disappear from this meme for so many weeks. Normally, this time of year is slow for me, with plenty of time to blog, but that has not been the case this year. Last weekend (Fri & Sat), we moved my daughter into her new apartment (yay!), but I was also sick with a virus. On Saturday, my sister, her husband, and my 15-year old niece came for a week long visit. We had to hurry back from Columbus to be here in time to greet them. It was a very busy, long week, and they left yesterday (Sat) morning. We went to Lake Wallace, Headlands Park at Lake Erie (the wind was awful), Amish country, Cuyahoga Valley National Park, and I did a Mystery tour with my niece and daughter in Medina (a scavenger hunt type thing). We are exhausted and trying to put the house back in order and rest up before work tomorrow actually ended up on a 4-mile hike this morning on a new trail. I hope you all have a fantastic weekend!Stacking The Shelves is all about sharing the books you are adding to your shelves, may it be physical or virtual.

I finished four books this week (two audio because I did a ton of walking!) and DNFd one. I am currently caught up on my reviews. I signed up to participate in Jana's Christmas in July event and I am super excited. July is my birthday month and with how hard this year has been, I thought it would be fun to send and receive a few gifts. Are you participating? This week, I hope to get back to my normal blogging schedule.

DeleteThanks Bree!
ReplyDeleteI hope you're feeling better! A virus on top of a busy week is no fun at all.
ReplyDeleteWe visited Cuyahoga National Park a couple of years ago and really had a good time! We loved the waterfalls and hiking around the Ledges area.
Jen, we are blessed to be able to go there often!
DeleteOh, and thanks for the reminder about Christmas in July! I'm going to sign up. My birthday is in July too so I agree that it's perfect timing!
