Good morning.
Its funny… it is early, but I am already running late. GAH. How does that happen? I need to be out of the house in 18 minutes…. I think that would be pushing it… but I will see what I can do. 😛
I am on the verge of finishing two audio books and three book books… all within the next day or two… does this happen to anyone else?
Seriously it feels like I have nothing to review and then wham! I am overloaded in reviews. I also have a review to do of the movie Atlas Shrugs (seriously… this is a review I am not looking forward to…)
As for today… I have a late breakfast with my friend Wendy and then back home to do a little reading and keep my weekend at a nice low blip. I am looking forward to this afternoon as being quiet and feel that will cause me to go into tomorrow well rested and ready to go into Thanksgiving week. (How did it get to be Thanksgiving already?)
I suppose this will be a crazy week for some of you, but for us… not so much. We do not have a lot of family and our son Justin will be coming home (YAY!!!) but Brad will be in Jacksonville Florida (Navy) until his leave in January.
Our holiday get togethers usually mean movies, board games, and food. It works for us. 😛
Ok… I am off. I will be back this afternoon with a review and later with the What Are You Reading post.
Enjoy your Sunday.
Book Journey 
Hope you have a great Sunday, Sheila – and a nice and quiet week, probably just what you need.
Thanks Judith… it has been a nice weekend 🙂
I’m with you Sheila – how did it get to be Thanksgiving already??? I need to catch up on my reviews, but am spending the day with an old friend who I haven’t seen in months. Maybe I’ll have time to play catch up on Thursday? Enjoy your day!
Thanks! I think today will be a great day to unwind or continue to unwind… 😀
Thanksgiving here will very quiet too (just the two of us), and it’s a good thing because I’m working hard on the final polishing of my new novel.
Enjoy your Sunday, Sheila!
Beth I am so excited for that book!!!!! Keep us (me!) updated on the happenings there 😉
I actually enjoy the nice quiet holiday. I used to go with my daughter to her in-laws, but this year, I’ll be spending it with my youngest son and family.
Two days after Thanksgiving, we’ll be having our annual event with the out-of-towners at a restaurant, and I hope to get more great photos of the grandkids.
Have a great week!
Here’s MY SUNDAY SALON POST and
MY WEBSITE
YAY – that means more photos for the blog too 😀
This sounds lovely…Hope you and Wendy enjoyed your breakfast…
Thanks Kim – we did 🙂
There are times when we enjoy not having any family nearby. I don’t have family left, and Dave’s family is a whole day’s drive away, so we are just two together for the entire day. It’s a day we watch parades and football and munch on whatever we want. This year for the first time I’m not doing the big turkey dinner so who knows what we’ll eat, but we love the peace and quiet.
I kind of do too Barbara…. I am so used to it now I like the quiet down time… not sure if I would ever fit into a big family now…
We still don’t know where we’ll be for Thanksgiving, but I plan for us to be with our son one way or the other.
Thats the way I was too Kathy – if Justin could not have come to us, we would have gone to him.
Sorry Brad won’t be making it home for Thanksgiving. Our oldest son won’t be with us either. His family went to PA to spend it with his wife’s family.
On the plus side, an author (who I met online) and her husband are coming from California to spend Thanksgiving with us. We’ll also be celebrating my birthday (the 24th) and their anniversary (the 25th) together. I can’t wait! It will be nice meeting her in person after almost 3 years.
Enjoy your day!
Brad hasnt been home the last two so I am used to it (a little).
Thats cool that you have plans with an author for Thanksgiving! You sound like you have a fun event planned! 😀
Our holidays are spent much the same way. With my oldest in Japan and most of our family 3.5 hours away it’s hard to get together. I enjoy the low key atmosphere myself! Hope your day has went well and that you’re ready for the week 😀
Thanks Staci… sometimes I get in my head about not having the big family thing… your comment here reminds me that it is ok and I am not alone at all. 😀
