I‘ve gotten in a lot of good #wintergames2021 activity in today, so I‘m spending this #coldnightin under a blanket, tallying points and making collages for posts. And in the back of my mind trying to decide which book to start tomorrow!

❄️ I‘m spending the day at my sister‘s. Last year my niece had a job where she had to work holidays, so we‘re happy she can join us on Christmas this year!

❄️ Brandon Sanderson, Gail Simone, Christopher Moore.

❄️ “A Chair of Anxious Fish”! Not exactly “A Game of Thrones” (or even “A Feast of Crows”), but I‘ll take it! 😅🤣

There is a lot of truth in this one... Unfortunately!🤪

Christmas Cards going out to some beautiful residents. @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks #LITSYLOVE

Amazing book about Christmas, celebrating and traditions. Children can teach so many from it. And there are hidden stuff inside. We had so much fun with this book. And it was St. Nicholas gift.

#childrensbook new to you

I mailed my #LittleChristmasSwap package this morning and had one arrive this afternoon. Thanks, @Avanders I can‘t wait to open it, but of course I will! I also realized that opening day is the day we return from the trip we‘re taking to celebrate our 50th anniversary. So don‘t be surprised if it‘s late in the day until I post my opening.

🎄depending on Covid numbers, or snowfall, our plan is to join my family on Boxing Day at my niece‘s home in Williamstown, MA.

🎄Louise Penny, Jesmyn Ward, Sarah Stewart Taylor

#wondrouswednesday

First of the post office runs finished. That‘s the #bestof2021swap and two of my #jolabokaflodswap packages. @jdiehr @candority @MaleficentBookDragon So I have one more Jolabokaflod, Little Christmas, and LitsyLove to finish packing and get off. But I‘m part way there!

Yay! @Andrew65 is doing a #DashingDecember #Readathon!

In the next 11 days, I hope to finish the next three books on my stack:
Bone Dust White
7 Days of Christmas
The Pearl

BTW, can't believe it's two weeks till Christmas!

@Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Thank you so much for the book and notepad! I can‘t wait to start reading it!

Reading and spending some quality time with my boys.

Thanks for the tag @Eggs !

1. Moms house on Christmas Eve, not sure the plans with the in-laws or Christmas Day yet
