I love me my weekends. Lingering in sleep pants. Hot coffee in a favorite cup. Usually some sort of down time (or- abbreviated down time), choices to make (or not), adventures to have.
What you are seeing in the above picture is my work space this morning. I will be mixing it up between work and play today – heading in to do wedding tastings late morning, walking a venue early afternoon and then home. Now however is all mine and after a morning working workout… I am itching to write about life, and about books.
So far, 2021 has been good. I have snowshoed, spent time with friends, had a great girls weekend, made it through the Friends of the Library Annual Meeting, read a few books. spoke to what feels like hundreds of people about upcoming events AND…
we welcomed baby Kylie Jade to the world on January 25th.
Yup. Brad and Brittany are parents to this gorgeous little girl and I am a Grandma. I can’t get enough of her and I am so thrilled for both of them.
In book news, now a whole lot to share… my busy has limited my reading and that is ok. I finished Stories That Stick by Kindra Hall, The Push by Ashley Audrain (whoa…) and am now listening to The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek by Kim Michelle Richardson. As I write this… I see I am a little behind on reviews. ;P
Did I mention there is a baby in the family?
Book Woman of Troublesome Creek is for Books Burgers and Brews that will take place on Monday February 15th via ZOOM at 6:00 pm central time. Anyone is welcome to join in the discussion so follow the link to find out more and register for the ZOOM convo. It’s always a lot of fun!
That’s it for now. I’m going to write some reviews this weekend and catch up on a few non profit projects.
Have a great weekend!

I thought I wasn’t going to be one of those sorts of nanas. Wrong.
LOL right? Fell in love with her the moment I saw her.
Congrats on the beautiful granddaughter! Grandkids are the best, aren’t they?
I also love the cozy work space you have and the idea of a weekend in PJs! I like to spend most of my mornings that way these days, only going to the dining room at lunch and dinner.
Your sandwich looks yummy!
I loved The Push!
Hi Laurel, Thank you. I do like a cozy space, a great cup of coffee, and my laptop. I am pretty self-entertaining. And I love these sandwiches – toasted wheat bread with Avocado and Tomato and Salt and Pepper
Read The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek. I liked it
Congratulations to the whole family! Grandbabies are the absolute best. I am going to have to try your sandwich, glad you shared what is on it. It looks so good.
Congratulations on becoming a grandma! I enjoyed the Book Woman of Troublesome Creek and really enjoyed it, especially the history of the “blue people” at the end.
Oh she’s beautiful! I can see why you’re behind on reviewing! And your sandwich looks amazing.
