Good morning! Let’s gather around with our caffeinated beverages to chat about our weeks, our books, and our perspectives. Join our host at Bookishly Boisterous to see what others are sharing.
- I am having my Coffee Chat a day early, in honor of the new bookshelf (below), an excitement that I am eager to share.
- I haven’t filled it up yet, and actually moved a few books from my other shelf. But I just couldn’t wait to finish reading all of my TBR books. And I had to bring over a decorative box and some photos from other places, not to mention one of my mugs.
- I am having my second cup of coffee while visiting blogs…today I am participating in WWW Wednesdays.
- I recently finished reading When I Last Saw You, by Bette Lee Crosby, a book I loved.
- Now I am reading Mother May I, by Joshilyn Jackson. It has grabbed me and is holding me hostage!
- I had a lovely visit with Fiona on Sunday…now she is off on her adventure and I am trying not to cry! Her boyfriend seems really nice. Let’s hope so, anyway! LOL
- Her mom posted this lovely “old photo” of the two of them, from years ago, along with a lovely poem about missing her.
- Why do lovely moments have to be mixed with sad ones? I guess that’s life, right? I am just happy to have those good moments and the memories afterwards.
- Today I can share that I may have mastered the linking process at Block Editor! Let’s hope I didn’t speak too soon!
- For the last two days, I have not gone to the dining room. I am enjoying doing things in my apartment and reading lovely books. I probably should go, today, and I actually planned to go yesterday…but then the bookshelf arrived and I couldn’t leave until it was set up in my apartment!

What has your week brought you so far?

AN INTERIOR JOURNEY 
I really like your new bookcase. It looks great. Happy and sad, bittersweet is such a perfect word to describe those emotions. I hope you have a nice rest of your week!

Thanks, Victoria, and yes, “bittersweet” is the perfect word for the feeling.
Enjoy your week!

I hope it won’t be too long before you see Fiona again. Hurray for figuring out how to link! My issue at the moment is being able to resize photos of covers. Some days the option appears and other days it’s nowhere. Not sure what I do differently each time. If you notice especially large covers on my posts you’ll know I wasn’t able to figure it out that day, lol.

Thanks, Mary, even though I think I’m figuring things out, I know there will be times when I am lost again! That seems to be the pattern. LOL
I resize the photos by pushing on the dots that appear on the photo and moving the photo up.
I definitely wish I could see Fiona sooner rather than later, but I am afraid she will love it so much…and keep staying past the summer!

My problem is that the ‘dots’ to resize aren’t always there. Some days they are and can do it and other days no matter how I move the curser I can’t get those dots to appear. There’s probably an easy fix but I haven’t found it yet.

The bookshelf looks perfect and the fun is taking your time to place things just so. I am glad the Joshilyn Jackson book is holding you hostage! Congrats on mastering block editor.
