Stacking the Shelves #104, Sunday Post #101, Sunday Salon #95

Hey bookish friends! This week was back to the grind! I went back to work (nanny job) on Monday. That afternoon I looked out the window and there was a puddle under my car! Guess what went back into the shop on Tuesday?! My MIL also went into the hospital on Monday, with some kind of infection (she had knee replacement surgery the Wednesday before). Wednesday my daughter went back to college and my husband took a mental health day (we needed it!). We also realized there was a puddle in one of the rooms of the basement, so we have a small leak. Thursday I got my car back again! This morning was all work, I am fighting a migraine and I HOPE to relax the rest of this day :) How are you doing?

December Reading Wrap-up

As I pause to reflect on the month of December, I am thankful I found more time to read than I did in November. I don't know what my reading life will look like in the new year since I am going to be getting a part-time job, but I hope to still have a decent amount of time for reading and blogging!

I finished 17 books in December and DNF 2. Click on the cover of the book if you want to read my review.

Well, it's been a few weeks since I said I was Taking a small break. Things have taken quite a bit of time and we are still not done. It will be weeks before everything is settled and I am trying to be okay with that 😂 I will try to visit your blogs over the next few days, I have MISSED you all, but still feeling a little overwhelmed. Today we are painting mine and my husband's bedroom.

September Reading Wrap-Up

Summer is officially over, the trees are starting to change, we have a lot of changes going on over here, especially with the move, which affected my reading for September. It will most likely affect October and November as well, but I will do what I can!!

I ended up reading 14 books and DNF 4 in September. Click on the cover of the book if you want to read my review.

First Line Friday #59-Forgotten Memories

Happy Friday, my bookish friends! Any plans for the weekend? I had a superficial keratectomy yesterday evening, so I am recovering, not sure what I will be able to do. Please be patient with me if it takes a while to visit your blog, not sure how my eye sight will be.

Top Ten Tuesday-Couples

Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is books with [__] on the cover. I wasn't sure what I wanted to do today's topic on. I started looking through the books I physically own and decided to feature couples. Out of 158 books only 13 had couples on them... and I'm not entirely sure one of them counts...I will let you decide 😂 Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl and you can head over there to see what our other bookish friends are up to today. 

Books I own that I still need to read with couples on them:

Hey bookish friends! I hope you are having a fabulous weekend. We had a busy week and I am worn out. I plan to chill and hang out with my family today. My daughter heads back to college tomorrow so I am soaking up these moments. What are your plans for the weekend?

Stacking the shelves #8/Sunday Post #5

Hey bookish friends! I hope your weekend is off to a great start. We got snow last night for the third weekend in a row. It was about 2 inches but didn't cover the road. It's cold and quite windy today, but that suits me just fine, I plan to stay inside 😁 What are your plans for the weekend?
