asphaltcowgrrl post reminded me that I was going to post about Dracula Daily before it started and I forgot.  Oops!

Dracula Daily is a project to read the book Dracula or as they put it on their website: "Dracula Daily is an email newsletter that sends you the novel Dracula, in real-time, as it happens to the characters." The novel started on May 3rd and so ( Read more... )

I am so glad it is Friday and can look forward to what will hopefully be a nice relaxing weekend. I just have to get through the rest of today. This week I have been trying to find a job where I can work from home, full or part-time, although full-time would be ideal. I would also need it to be quasi-flexible because I am caring for several family ( Read more... )

Hi! I can't believe it is already Thursday. This week has passed by slowly during the day but then we have had something every evening, so it has also felt very fast. I am really looking forward to this weekend and being able to sleep in. Ever since we went away for a week on vacation my black cat Cas has been very clingy. Now Cas even before we ( Read more... )

Hi! I hope your week is starting off well. Mine is middling. Not awful but not awesome either. I am keeping my fingers crossed that the week will improve. I learned that my local bookstores are doing a book hop on Independent Bookstore Day which is always the last Saturday of April. A book hop is where a group of bookstores get together and offer ( Read more... )

How is it only Tuesday? Last week was rough. I think it was a mixture of post-vacation blues and things just not going my way but I had a hard time last week. I felt anxious and disorganized and all out of sorts. This week isn't shaping up better tbh, although I still remain hopeful considering it is only Tuesday. For the last few days, I have been ( Read more... )

This week has had it's up and downs, so I am very glad tomorrow is Friday! Went on a date night with my husband we ate at a great Italian restaurant. They have such great food, but I always order their Farmer's Market salad it is the best salad I have ever had. We also went to one of my favorite used bookstores we got there close to closing time, ( Read more... )

I am thankfully feeling better this week. I still have a cough that is lingering and making it hard to sleep as it seems worse at night. I think because my throat dries out. My husband was successful in finding a used car. It is a Volvo, I had a Volvo station wagon years ago and I loved it, so I am hoping for another good run with this one. Happy ( Read more... )

I've been sick this weekend, so I haven't done much except sleep and read and watch the house slowly fall into disarray. I will worry about cleaning when I feel better. lol  Other than being sick this week has been a good one because a car insurance issue has finally been resolved. Back in October one evening when I was driving one of the main ( Read more... )

I can't believe another week has passed already. This weekend was full up with stuff we had to do so it felt almost like we had no weekend at all. Although I did get to sleep in on Saturday which is always my favorite part. lol Unfortunately, I woke up with a migraine on Sunday which is always an awful way to begin a day it finally faded by the ( Read more... )

There have been a lot of frustrations this week. I'm kind of all done and it is only Tuesday. :(  On the flip side I found a new used bookstore and promptly forgot my vow to buy no more books until I read and get rid of a few. :)  Also, we have finally had a week of no rain, so things have been drying out. I have been soaking in the sunshine like a ( Read more... )
