Work has been so busy that I haven‘t really been too active on social, but I wanted to drop by while I was getting some nighttime reading done and say hello!

Thanks to airport and flight time (quick work trip), I‘m now on my third book in 2.5 days. The good parts of air travel! Have a great evening everyone! 💚
There are probably things I should be doing today, but I just don‘t feel like it. I‘m tired and I‘d rather sit here and read my book, so here I am…. Oh, and Scout says hi!
This morning I ran a 5K to benefit the Colorectal Cancer Alliance, who I‘ve been involved with since I lost my daddy and big brother in 2010 to colon cancer. They were such a help when my daddy was still in his fight. After having a day of hanging out with the hubs after that, I‘m digging into the first book of a new series.
It has been a long workweek (I was super sick for the whole of it) and Monday is my 40th bday, so I‘ve taken today to kind of relax. I had an orthodontist appt, a facial, and finished one book and am almost through a second. I‘ll get back to reality tomorrow….
One of my graduation gifts from my mom arrived today! I barely remember telling her that I wanted this when we were in the bookstore, but I‘m glad that she remembered 😊
It has been a really rough couple of weeks. I decided a rest day from the gym and an evening of reading was in order. Starting a book I‘ve been waiting to read…my brain candy.
It‘s been a long day…A little light reading about how to not get murdered should help 😉
Yay, my new kindle is here!! My old one was starting to drag!!
The rest of my weekend home improvement plans came to a screeching halt yesterday due to (what I‘m hoping is) a bad sinus infection that has been getting increasingly worse by the day. So today I‘m continuing some self care with an easy to read book & a bath with Vicks bath salts. Here‘s to no covid from the hubby‘s icu!
Not too bad for fitting books in between grad school. (I admittedly relied heavily on audiobooks while cleaning, working out, running errands, meal prepping, everything…) Here‘s to a better year, in every way!! Happy New Year Litsy Fam!!!
I haven‘t taken declarations down yet, so finishing holiday reads still seems appropriate…
I got a pedicure and made cookies for my husband to take to the hospital for his nurses tonight, so this is where you‘ll find me until it‘s time to cook dinner. This is my one day off this week/weekend, so I‘m going to take advantage of at least part of it. Happy Christmas Eve to those of you who celebrate!
Happy Holiday to all of you from my family, to you and yours!!
I‘m so annoyed with my mil and her husband who are here right now. I know I should be used to her sh*t by now, but… Thankfully, I can hide the earbud in one ear and listen to my book & it‘s after noon on a Saturday so I‘m drinking red wine!
Time for some relaxation with an old standby… #bookandbath
I. Had to have my impacted wisdom teeth out today, so I‘m off of work. The first book up for post-masters pleasure reading (because it was next to me and I don‘t feel like going into my office to decide what to read) is Dumbledore!
I‘m finally done with my Masters!! This has been a long year, but it‘s done!! I get to read for fun again!!! Now, where to start….
Ya girl is getting ready to be able to read for fun again! I‘ll be done with my thesis in a few weeks so I stocked up at the B&N Black Friday sale (like I don‘t have an endless tbr), sine I really haven‘t bought many new books this year.
@Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Misty, you are too sweet! You just made my week. Thank you so much!! I‘m so excited to read this 💚
I‘ve been anticipating this book since Chris Jackson announced it, and I‘m so excited that it came in yesterday on release day!! Now…Just to find the time to read it!!
@ImperfectCJ Thank you so much for everything!! Your wildcard picks sound so great and I can‘t wait to read them. (and I love spice in my hot chocolate!) The Weirdos definitely thought you put treats in there for them, though. They were sniffing the box before I even started opening it! 😂 You went above and beyond!
Thanks also to our amazing hosts! This was so much fun!
Y‘all…I got a galley of Kagen the Damned! I thought I was going to have to wait until the end of May 2022 to read this! I‘m so excited!!
So excited to finally have this in my hands! I had the galley preview so I‘ve been waiting for the release!
@ImperfectCJ Your box made it 😊 I‘m so excited to open it! Yours will be mailed out tomorrow. I‘m running a bit further behind than I‘d like thanks to an awful work week, but it‘ll make it in time! #LLFS
One of my best work friends passed away Sunday night from covid. Even though we all work remotely, we worked together for over 4 years and spoke, laughed, messaged, and caught up regularly. It has hit myself and many in our company family hard. Her family was kind enough to stream her funeral for us. So we‘re working and saying goodbye this morning.
I finished writing a 20 page assignment, so I‘m rewarding myself with some brain candy for the night while the hubby plays Mass Effect… Just a few more months to go….
There are definitely other books I would rather be reading… #gradschool
Hello! It‘s been a while. Life has been crazy- working in healthcare right now and grad school is a whole thing! It hasn‘t left a lot of time for fun reading. Only a few more months of grad school, though! I‘ve missed you all and just want to say hi! 💚
My neck is still in spasm (at this point I‘m considering that it actually may be coming from my traps), but I‘m off work and have nothing that I absolutely have to do tonight so I‘m trying another very hot bath with epsom salts followed by my tens machine. Fingers crossed!
My neck is in spasm for the second day in a row, despite working all of my trainer/physiotherapists tricks. The hubs wanted me to come with him while he tries out his new club. Instead of my clubs, I brought my kindle. I‘m not mad about it.
I just wanted to take a moment to say thank you to my #litsylove family for all of the birthday love that I‘ve received in the past week or so. It‘s been a really rough couple of months and all of the sweet cards, notes, bookmarks and just knowing you all were thinking of me really made my birthday special. I‘m slowly getting reply mail back to you all, I promise! Thank you again! 💚💚💚
It has been a very long week & I have a long day of schoolwork tomorrow before my 6 day work week starts on Sunday. Tonight it‘s time to relax for a couple of hours...
Hi all! I‘ve been MIA this week. Yesterday was the anniversary of my daddy passing and work & school have been crazy, so I‘ve been quite antisocial. Not much to report from here, here‘s a picture of Scout and Clete waiting for me to get off of work yesterday and a hope that you‘ve all had a good week. Love to you all! 💚
I had to get up to work on a Sunday morning, and I woke up to this! We got our one snow of the winter and it looks like it‘s going to be more than we normally get 😊
I really enjoyed this book! It had wonderful pictures and also gave an overview of QEII‘s life through the present time. I‘m so glad that I got this for Christmas!
This brings my #pennyperpage earnings up to $5.71!
I‘m done with school for the day, so I‘m going to enjoy some fun reading for a bit. Still waiting on snow! (Gratuitous Clete shot in the background since y‘all got so see Scout earlier!)
We‘re waiting on the snow to come, here in West TX! We‘ve got a fire going, I‘m doing school work, my hubby is watching golf, Cletus is outside barking at something, and then there‘s Scout... #dorkdog #boxersoflitsy
Got up and got my workout out of the way this morning. It was biceps, shoulders, & core day with some spin on the back end for cardio! I also got about an hour of my audiobook listened to. (This book seems appropriate right now...) This met my goal of 5/5 workouts this week! Now for some school work & hopefully some fun reading later today. Have a great Saturday everyone! #BFC21 #anywayyoureadathon
After a very long week of work and school, and 2 heavy lifting days plus a core and cardio day, I‘m indulging in some self-care by way of a book and bath (my wonderful hubby is taking care of dinner). I‘ll be participating in #anywayyoureadathon peripherally as I have to get some grad school work done tomorrow and I have to work a full day Sunday. Stupid adulting... #BFC21
No fun reading tonight...unless you consider impact assessments or innovation comparison material interesting. Anyone? No?
On to the next book of the day! My sis-in-law got me this one for Christmas & it was one of my favorite gifts. It combines two of the things that I really love: the Royal Family and and photography. (Gratuitous Scout and Clete pic in the background 😊)
My husband is sleeping before he has to go back to the hospital tonight, laundry is going, dinner is cooking (thanks crock pot!), so I‘m enjoying the last free day before classes start back for me tomorrow. Happy Sunday!
