Welcome to our pre-Christmas Coffee Chat, in which we celebrate the upcoming festivities and the great good things of the past year. Of course, New Year’s will bring more of those thoughts, too.
I am enjoying the anticipation of the holidays. My granddaughter is coming over tomorrow night for a sleep over on the Murphy bed, and to cook some goodies for Christmas. On Monday, I’ll be having lunch with my daughter.
- Meanwhile, I continue to enjoy viewing favorite old shows, like Brothers and Sisters, which I always love, and which I haven’t watched for a few years. I laugh, I cry, and feel connected to these characters.
- I am currently reading one of my hardcover books, which has been languishing in my “reading cupboard” (green cupboard below), where I keep those print volumes. Sister Dear, by Hannah Mary McKinnon has captured my attention. I do love having print books, as I savor being surrounded by them. But I must admit that reading on my Kindle is actually easier.
- I am excited about the upcoming First Book of the Year event, the tenth year we have celebrated it, thanks to Sheila, at Book Journey.
- I selected a book that I bought earlier, one of those hardcover books that has been languishing on my nightstand. I actually bought it two years ago! More on that book when the celebration begins.
- Now it is time to get on with the day!

What did your week look like? Happy Holidays!

I’m going to try and focus a bit more on reading books I bought in hardcover and then promptly forgot about them. I’ve never watched Brothers and Sisters but wow – what a cast! Have a wonderful week!
