Roary47 I‘m hoping to get more caught up today with a clean house, but a nap is definitely in the picture. 2w
TheBookHippie I‘m on a me staycation in my house. No one can ask me a thing for a week. Nor am I cooking for anyone but me. No housework. Nada. Recharging. 😂🙌🏼🤭 2w
dabbe @TheBookHippie Y😍Y! 🧡🤎💛 2w

dabbe @Roary47 N😍PS are the best! Hope you have a long and restful one! 🧡🤎💛 2w
Eggbeater I had a stressful day yesterday, and I am using this weekend to recover. No news, take-out, PBS, books, online book club, and snuggling with my dog. If I happen to get some chores done, that would be a bonus, but I'm not pressuring myself. 2w
Librarybelle I think I can finally rest for the rest of the weekend! I still have minor chores to do, and always lots of kitty things to do, but I don‘t have to rush. What a week! Though, once I sit down, I may fall asleep. 😂 2w
JenniferEgnor Hanging in there. Things to be grateful for and focus on today: gifted more books to my bookworm hospice patient this morning; a nice storm visited us at home; tacos tonight with friends. 2w
willaful I'm missing my husband, who's been away for a week helping his sister recover from surgery. Spending too much time online and watching too much t.v. :-( 2w
AllDebooks @Roary47 Nap roulette is the best game. Is it gonna be a 20 minute catnap or 3 hour food coma? Sweet dreams x 2w
AllDebooks @TheBookHippie Yay for recharging. Wishing you a restful weekend. x 2w
AllDebooks @Eggbeater oh no! I hope you have a restful weekend. X 2w
AllDebooks @Librarybelle Enjoy your weekend. X 2w
AllDebooks @JenniferEgnor ❤️ Enjoy your evening with friends. 🫂 2w
AllDebooks @willaful 🫂 that's tough. I hope she makes a speedy recovery and hubby is home soon. x 2w
willaful @AllDebooks It's lovely and cool outside so I'm going to have a walk, which will be an improvement on my previous activities. :-) 2w
AnnCrystal Thank you for the tag ☺️👍🏼💝. Relaxing today, working on a crochet shawl for my mom. Couldn't find purple cotton yarn, but found a lovely shade of green 🪄🧶💖. 2w

Bookwormjillk Last full day of family obligations and I go home tomorrow! I miss my cats! I even miss working a little 😂 Have a good one all. 3w
Librarybelle Good morning! It‘s been a crazy week—I started a WFH temp job to help pay for Zeke‘s medical bills, and it‘s been crazy. I like the flexibility to work whenever, but the work is not always available, despite a requirement to work a certain number of hours per week. I need flexibility with Zeke‘s care, so I‘ll see how long I can handle this. 😂 It has really cut back on my reduced reading time. Hopefully I can get a good rhythm soon. 3w
AllDebooks @Bookwormjillk enjoy your last day before heading home. 3w

AllDebooks @Librarybelle I hope it works out for you. Good luck. x 3w
Bookwormjillk @Librarybelle I hope you can get it worked out with your WFH job! 3w
Librarybelle Thanks, @AllDebooks and @Bookwormjillk ! I am a planner and having to check for work several times a day at all hours of the day is not a good practice for a planner. 😂 That‘s on me. I guess I‘ll consider it a growth opportunity. 3w
Bookwormjillk @Librarybelle that would be hard for me too 3w
Roary47 I hope you are able to find that balance @Librarybelle 3w
Roary47 Yay! Almost time to go home to the kitties. I‘m happy for you @Bookwormjillk 3w
Roary47 I‘m going to try to take back my house in cleaning. Finding my work life balance is always hard for me. I have forms to complete for my kids school, I have work still to do for my job, but today is audiobooks that my library holds are almost up on and cleaning my house that got out of control through the work/school week. 😅 3w
Librarybelle Safe travels home, @Bookwormjillk ! 3w
Librarybelle Good luck, @Roary47 ! 3w
Bookwormjillk @Roary47 good luck! The forms are a real struggle this time of year! 3w
melissajayne Had friends over on Thursday evening and I was just so drained yesterday. Did basically nothing. I just sat in my chair and watched stuff on my TV and listened to podcasts. Had a good sleep that I just woke up from and feel surprisingly rested and content. 3w
AllDebooks @Roary47 bleurgh, cleaning and form-filling! Hope they're completed quickly so you can get back to doing what you want. 3w
AllDebooks @melissajayne sometimes you just need a timeout to recharge. That's what I'm doing today. 😅 3w
dabbe I can't believe how jet-lagged I still am from my trip (4 hours ahead in NB). Add to that, I need to relearn how to handle the heat. Since I've been home it's been 113, 115, 118, and 115. The dogs are grumpy because it's too hot to even walk outside. So, I need to stop bitching and find the good. I have a home with AC and pups who love me. What more do I need? 💙🩵💙 3w
dabbe @Bookwormjillk Yay for home and cats! Safe travels! 💙🩵💙 3w
dabbe @Librarybelle Yay for your job, though I hope it calms down for you soon! Glad Zeke's still enjoying life and love to you and those kitties! 💙🩵💙 3w
dabbe @Roary47 I'm so with you! My house is a disaster zone! It's so bad that I look around and don't even know where to begin. Yet, I don't have to work with students anymore. I hope you have a stellar school year, m'dear. 💙🩵💙 3w
dabbe @melissajayne It's so necessary to reboot after time spent with people. Glad you woke up feeling rejuvenated. 💙🩵💙 3w
Deblovestoread I have had a busy, although mostly fun, three days since Wednesday. Even the DMV, while not fun, was easy with an appointment. I‘m so glad to be home today with just Pippin and some quiet time. 3w
Deblovestoread @Bookwormjillk Going home is always a treat. 💙 3w
Deblovestoread @Librarybelle The work thing sounds HARD. Hope it goes in its most positive way for you. Give Zeke a pet from me. Hope he‘s doing well. 3w
Deblovestoread @Roary47 Hope the necessaries can be accomplished quickly and you get time to relax. 3w
Deblovestoread @melissajayne I so get the need to rest after peopling. 3w
Deblovestoread @dabbe We are forecasted to hit 101° tomorrow and I‘m not a fan. Thankful for AC and that our nights cool down to mid 60‘s. Hopefully a good book can take your mind off the hell that is outside. 3w
Librarybelle Thanks, @dabbe and @Deblovestoread ! Zeke is doing very well. He had a really rough patch a couple of weeks ago but has really bounced back. He also stopped eating the one food he had been eating but wanted a novel protein food he ate before his diagnosis, and he is so improved on this, acting mischievous at times. He still likes eating during the night, though, so I‘d love some restful sleep at some point! But, I‘d rather this than not have him. 3w
dabbe @Deblovestoread I think I can probably find one or two. 100+ degrees in Oregon is just NOT correct. It's just not. 💙🩵💙 3w
dabbe @Librarybelle 🖤🐾🖤 3w
Roary47 Thank you @AllDebooks @dabbe @Deblovestoread I was able to get most of it done, and then played my video game. 😍 3w

Librarybelle Good Morning! It‘s so hot outside, so I am very thankful for air conditioning. Hoping for a quiet weekend to catch up on sleep, but we‘ll see if my cats will allow that. 😂 1mo
Sace Good morning! Haircut today but otherwise no plans. I report back to work on Wednesday so I am trying to read as much as I can! It‘s to hot to be outside anyway. 1mo
Aims42 Happy Saturday!! No big plans except for doing the weekly grocery shopping. They‘re saying rain and thunderstorms for my area so I‘m taking that as a sign today should be a chill reading day 🤓 1mo

AllDebooks @Librarybelle 🤞 for nap time x 1mo
AllDebooks @Sace ooh, restyle or trim? 1mo
AllDebooks @Aims42 absolutely it's a sign 😀 1mo
Sace @AllDebooks mainly a trim but I am growing out a short pixie to a blunt cut bob. I am currently in the worst portion of the process when no matter what I look shaggy and my hair is in my way 😆 1mo
dabbe Thanks for always checking in on us! We're taking Pip (with Katie riding shotgun) to see her vet neurologist for her yearly checkup for epilepsy. Then, we'll probably be exhausted, so we'll rest up in anticipation of our friend Ann and her greyhound, Phoebe's visit this evening. #allaboutthedogs 🖤🐾🖤 1mo

Librarybelle Good morning! It‘s been another rollercoaster week, both personally and in the world. But, I‘m hoping to sleep this weekend (hardly any sleep the past few nights), read, and hang with cats. Because, you know, cats make everything better! 1mo
Sace I report back to work July 30 so I am spending every moment I can reading. Work thoughts creep in and I have to quash them. I‘m already thinking about the August TBR since traditionally I do NO reading in August and I don‘t want that to happen this year. Only thing on the agenda today is lunch at my favorite Thai restaurant. 1mo
kspenmoll I am back home from a few heavenly days in Mendon, VT. On my porch with coffee & a book, welcoming the morning.A break from the heat! Plan to walk with my neighbor after coffee, the laundry catch up,bring book donations to library. The afternoon id free for me. 1mo

kspenmoll @Librarybelle I truly hope you can sleep, read, & snuggle with your cats. It has been a roller coaster week politically…so rest up for life right now. 1mo
kspenmoll @Sace Enjoy your thai food & the remainder of your time off.💕 1mo
Librarybelle @kspenmoll Yay for porch reading! 1mo
Librarybelle @Sace Enjoy your remaining free time! 1mo
Chrissyreadit @Librarybelle I hope you get lots of cozy, snuggles, and reading time 💛 1mo
Chrissyreadit @kspenmoll that sounds like a thoroughly enjoyable day. 1mo
Chrissyreadit @Sace What book are you most looking forward to reading next? 1mo
Sace @Librarybelle Cats are the best! 1mo
Sace @kspenmoll and your porch looks lovely! 1mo
Sace @kspenmoll and @Librarybelle thank you! 1mo
Chrissyreadit I have caught a Summer cold! so will try out some ways to feel better without raising my blood sugar (i use a lot of honey typically when sick) 1mo
Sace @Chrissyreadit I‘m still trying to finish up the July reading menu. The only thing I know for sure about the August reading menu is that it will be made up entirely of snacks and leftovers (quick reads and the books I don‘t finish in July). 😂 1mo
Sace @Chrissyreadit oh no!! I hope you can get some relief. Lots of rest and reading are in order. 😁 (edited) 1mo
AllDebooks @Librarybelle sleep well. Cats and books make everything better. X 1mo
AllDebooks @Sace a Thai lunch sounds delicious. Enjoy your meal. 😀 1mo
AllDebooks @kspenmoll Sounds like a chilled day. x 1mo
AllDebooks @Chrissyreadit oh no, wishing you well. I prescribe a #Hygge weekend. ❤️ 1mo
AllDebooks I've been rained off gardening. I'm alternating between Lord of the Rings movie marathon with my eldest and reading 1mo
Librarybelle Hope you feel better, @Chrissyreadit ! 1mo

Sace I hope you‘re having a good morning! Thank you for these Chatterday posts. I don‘t participate much but I enjoy reading the chatter. 2mo
AllDebooks Hi, thank you. I do enjoy them. What are your plans for the weekend? 😀 2mo
AllDebooks I'm trying to find a plumber. It's 30°C here, and we have no water due to a stuck bath tap. Not how planned to spend today, but here we are. 🥵 2mo

ElizaMarie Good morning. I woke up at 2 AM, stayed up for a few hours, did some homework, took a nap, and am now up again, finishing homework and drinking some coffee. Hope to get to a muesum today. 2mo
Bookwormjillk @AllDebooks ugh good luck. That sounds like a pain. Chores for me today- bringing my son to get his passport then bringing my daughter to get shoes. We‘ll see which is more painful. Tonight a neighbor has invited us on his boat to see fireworks. I‘m sort of looking forward to that but also feeling drained. Husband really wants to go though so I‘ll make the effort. Tomorrow is mine. 2mo
Bookwormjillk @ElizaMarie have fun at the museum! 2mo
TheBookHippie @AllDebooks good morning!!! I too am waiting on a plumber… bathroom sink… second time this summer.. was for leaking toilet earlier this month🤦🏻‍♀️ good luck to you!!!! Ugh.. 2mo
TheBookHippie @Bookwormjillk tomorrow is yours !!! 2mo
Cuilin @ElizaMarie Nice, what museum? 2mo
Cuilin @TheBookHippie @AllDebooks water issues all around. A Maine burst in the city we‘re on a “boil your water warning” until further notice. 😑 2mo
Cuilin I‘m going to try the gym. First time in two years. 🤞 2mo
TheBookHippie @Cuilin 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫 2mo
TheBookHippie @Cuilin yay for the gym!!!!!! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 2mo
TheBookHippie @ElizaMarie ENJOY YOUR DAY! 2mo
ElizaMarie @Bookwormjillk @Cullin @TheBookHippie - Springfield MA Art Museum - Wanted to see the exhibits “Witch Panic! Massachusetts Before Salem“ and “Yokai: Japanese Ghosts, Demons and Monsters“ (edited) 2mo
ElizaMarie @AllDebooks I didn't work the last few days at my full-time job, but.. All the staff were struggling; there was some sort of water break in the ER, and we were on diversion. And I was told it was horrendous! No regular bathroom use for 48hrs (they had to use the disposable liner toilets and all! 2mo
ElizaMarie @Cuilin Great!!! Super proud of you!!! Let us know how it goes! 2mo
TheBookHippie @ElizaMarie sounds amazing. I love art museums. 2mo
Cuilin @ElizaMarie the “boil water advisory” is still in effect for the whole city today. The second water test results should be known late this afternoon. 😩 I can‘t imagine what it‘s like at the hospital. 2mo
quietlycuriouskate Wimbledon, innit? I'm not good for much today: it's too damn hot and I've been up since 5 o'clock after a restless night. 2mo
AllDebooks @ElizaMarie oh I love a good museum or gallery visit. Enjoy. X 2mo
AllDebooks @Bookwormjillk a boat trip with fireworks does sound fun. I hope you enjoy it. X 2mo
AllDebooks @TheBookHippie that sounds awful. I hope you didn't have to wait too long. We're all sorted now, thankfully. 2mo
AllDebooks @Cuilin that's no fun. I hope it is sorted quickly. Well done for tackling the gym. How has your daughter settled into Ireland? Are you coping ok? X 2mo
AllDebooks @ElizaMarie OMG, that exhibition sounds AMAZING! 🖤🧙‍♀️👻😈👾🖤 2mo
AllDebooks @ElizaMarie Yikes, that is bad news! 2mo
AllDebooks @quietlycuriouskate I can't imagine playing tennis in this heat!! It's hot enough just watching Wimbledon on tv. Why is there such a focus on celebrity spotting this year? It's completely OTT. 2mo
TheBookHippie @quietlycuriouskate I‘ve been watching off and on. 2mo
TheBookHippie @AllDebooks waaaaay to much look who is here going on 2mo
TheBookHippie @AllDebooks still waiting … of course we need a new specific piece for a pipe… just a laugh riot… 2mo
DebinHawaii Got a bit of a late start today. Missing some sleep so I slept in then went to the “bring your bag & get 20%” sale at my local craft chain. Now I‘m hanging at the coffee shop working on getting cards out & trying to finish up the book for #CampLitsy. Hope all the plumbing issues get fixed & everyone has a good day & weekend.💛 2mo

Bookwormjillk Hello all! I rarely say this, but I read so much yesterday that I hope to put the books down today. Although one of the things I want to do is maybe visit a bookstore. We‘ll see. A Saturday within plans. (edited) 2mo
Librarybelle Good Morning! My goal is to sleep this weekend. 😂 My rest during the night has been less than what it has been, but we‘ll see. 2mo
Roary47 Good Morning! I‘m planning on doing only relaxing today since I did my cleaning yesterday for family to come over. It‘s so nice to have a clean house again that I can just sit and enjoy. 🥰 2mo

Chrissyreadit Good morning I am working on reducing stress, building community and staying present! I drank a delightful cup of coffee and may make a cup of clevr mushroom and coffee- tastes great and helps me focus!!!! (I think) This has been a heartbreaking stressful week- but reading continues to help and Litsy is still my favorite place to be 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙 2mo
AllDebooks @Bookwormjillk lol, I hear you x 2mo
AllDebooks @Librarybelle weekend naps are the definition of bliss. X 2mo
AllDebooks @Roary47 have a relaxing weekend xx 2mo
AllDebooks @Chrissyreadit sending hugs. I think we all love Litsy for the haven from hate it is. X 2mo
Deblovestoread Have a busy day ahead with family. We will laugh, eat, commiserate and get a walk on the beach in. 2mo
dabbe After having our neighbor and her greyhound over for doggie-4th-of-July shenanigans, we are whipped and lying low today. Happy Saturday, everyone! 💙🩵💙 2mo
DebinHawaii Just crusin‘ today. I hit up the monthly makers market & I‘m now settled in at the coffeeshop. Plan to do some reading & maybe a nap later. 2mo

We went to the DC Zoo today & found out about bird friendly coffee. Did not know there was such a thing. My oldest wants to go to grad school & do bird research. He‘s already encouraged us to buy plants & flowers that are more native to the area to encourage more pollinators. He‘s becoming my conscience more when shopping or purchasing things. In case you‘re interested in learning more. https://nationalzoo.si.edu/migratory-birds/bird-friendly

Bookwormjillk Is the new Africa exhibit open yet? 2mo

AllDebooks Don't take it personally. It's good you have a positive outcome. Good luck with the new ARC providers. X 2mo
AnnCrystal That's the way to view their rejection. It led you to discover two other reviewing opportunities 🥳📚💝. That's grand!

I'm glad you feed your neighborhood wildlife when you can, and it's also good that it's not all the time. They need a chance to exercise their wild talents and seek out wild food sources.

🥳🦋📚🐦💝.
