Welcome to another Coffee Chat, in which we share bookish and not so bookish thoughts. Head on over to Bookishly Boisterous to add your link.
I missed last week’s post, as the week itself was pretty much a loss in terms of blogging. Some of you may have read my weekend blog posts about the chaos that took over my life, beginning with a defunct laptop. Then I was caught up in DMV issues and now have my REAL ID headed my way. And the temporary bridge that fell out has been replaced.
- Meanwhile, I have a new laptop which I’ve named Daphne (replacing Louisa May), and I am slowly adjusting to its particular quirks. And there are a few of those! I also had to change almost all of the passwords. LOL. Meanwhile, here she is, with a new desktop background that spotlights my six published novels…and my hippie doll. Check out my website for a close-up view of the books.
- This is my birthday week, so today I had lunch with a friend…and tomorrow I’ll celebrate with my daughter. My friend and I had pasta and endless salad bowls at The Olive Garden.
- Last week, I read In Pieces, by Sally Field (click title for my review), and this week I’ve been watching a family drama featuring Sally: Brothers & Sisters, on Prime. I love that show!
- Currently I’m reading Day of the Dead, the final Frieda Klein novel.
- I am also excited that I got a NetGalley ARC I had requested: Daisy Jones and the Six, by Taylor Jenkins Reid – Release Date: 3/5/19.

How is your week shaping up?

AN INTERIOR JOURNEY 
Happy you’re adjusting to Daphne. ☺️ I just checked out your review for In Pieces. I’m glad you enjoyed it.
My week has been a little crummy—headaches and stuff. But….I’m trying to get it together. Finishing up a great cozy. Enjoy the rest of your week Laurel-Rain.

Thanks, Laurie, last week’s chaos took its toll, so I’m glad that I got to read such a good book. Now I’m loving the final Frieda Klein book in the series.
Hope you feel better soon!

A huge happy birthday and so good to hear you are celebrating it in style. I never watched Brothers and Sisters but at some point would like to start it. Its not enough though to want! I need to make some clear goals around my viewing, maybe a 2019 project!

Thanks for the birthday wishes, Kathryn,and making goals and plans should do it. Enjoy! I am loving watching the show again. I saw it when it was on the air, but binge-watching is so much fun.

Getting a new computer (or phone) is fun but also a pain. I hope you had a great birthday!

Definitely, Kathy. There is always both an upside and a downside. I had a great birthday! Thanks for visiting.
