There are seven days to a week and yet some weeks feel like there are 137 days in a week. It has been one of those weeks. I’m tired beyond belief but that might have something to do with the fact that I’m still playing nurse to my daughter who had surgery and now to my four-year-old who has another round of strep. Ugh, I hate that dreaded s-word. HATE it. I’m so over it.
Piper returned to the orthopedic clinic to have half of her staples removed. She is healing up nicely but we still have a couple of weeks before she’s out of the immobilizer and into a brace.
We are eager to get her on to the road to recovery and back to physical therapy.
Despite sick kids and all the appointments we had this week, I’ve managed to read five books! My goal was three! Whew! I was a reading fiend this week and that feels good! I hope to keep this pace up for a while so that I’m back to being ahead with my reading. Currently, I’m only about 11 days ahead of schedule and that concerns me. If I get sick or hit a lull…yeah, no, it just won’t do. I have deadlines and I need to keep it up and get ahead! I can do this right?
Anyway, I had a fairly productive blog schedule this past week. So, let’s take a look at all the new posts and get into my goals for this upcoming week.

How was your week? Did you get anything for Valentine’s? Did you even bother with it? Read anything good this week? Let me know!
So sorry to hear about your little ones! My kids were sick this week too, luckily not flu. I hope yours heal quickly. ?
Can’t wait to read Shadowsong and thank you for sharing my post. I’ll be updating soon but no fix yet. Congrats on the awesome week in reading and take care! ?
Keep us updated! I’ve known a few people who have suddenly been banned for no reason. One lady isn’t even a reviewer. All of her posts were for products she purchased :-/
I hope your kids and you get the rest you need to recover as soon as possible! Best wishes for good health moving forward.
Thank you! <3
Also… I’m very glad you enjoyed the Cozy Winter Covers ?
I am such a cover junky :-)
We cover junkies need to stick together ?
I just discovered your blog and love it! Looks like we enjoy several of the same books. :) Thanks for the shout-out to my interview with Beth Vogt too. Have a great week!
You’re welcome! Thanks for dropping by! ❤️
