Good morning! Today’s post will link up to The Sunday Salon, The Sunday Post and Stacking the Shelves, for weekly updates.
**Mailbox Monday is hosted at the home site: Mailbox Monday.
And let’s join Kathryn, our leader in It’s Monday! What Are You Reading?, at Book Date.
I finished my third book of the week today, and it was a quick one; I couldn’t stop reading. I love how thrillers help us move things along. With three books and six blog posts for the week, I am feeling like I’M BACK! And yes, it’s about time. This year I finally joined the Goodreads Challenge again, and since my goal is relatively small (150 books), I am confident I’ll make it. So far I have finished 11 books.
I continue with my usual obsessive behaviors, like rearranging things, ordering more items from Amazon, and pushing ahead with my efforts to fill my one bookshelf. I also ordered another (small) shelf for the overflow that I anticipate.
To pamper myself, I headed to my daughter’s salon for a styling.
Now it is time for the weekly coffee treat while we take a closer look at the details.
