It's Monday! What Are You Reading? April 29, 2019

It's Monday! What Are You Reading? is a place to meet up and share what you have been, are and about to be reading over the week. It's an opportunity to visit other blogs and to comment on their reads. And ... you can add to that ever growing TBR pile! So welcome everyone. This meme started with J Kaye's Blog and then was taken up by Sheila from Book Journey. Sheila then passed it on to Kathryn at the Book Date. And here we are!

I had a super busy weekend and got very little reading done. Friday, I took the day off and we went had lunch at school with our 10 yo grandson. Yay for school hot lunch! 😉 Then we ended up bringing his 2 yo sister home so they could work on getting their house ready to put on the market. After I took her home on Saturday, I went to a library event with my daughter and DIL. 

We heard Caroline Fraser talk about her Pulitzer Prize winning biography of Laura Ingalls Wilder, Prairie Fires. Since we live in the middle of the Little House on the Prairies settings, it was interesting to get her perspective on Wilder's life. On Saturday night we went to the movie, The Public, starring Emilio Estevez and Alec Baldwin. It was very good, especially for those of us who have worked in public libraries. So much of the movie was relate-able. The theater full of librarians were whooping, laughing, and applauding throughout the movie! 

Thanks for stopping by. I hope you all have a good week. Happy reading!

We had beautiful weather over the holiday weekend. Since Sunday was Easter and today is my birthday, most of the family got together to celebrate the two events—we were only missing a few of the grands. Saturday was exceptionally nice and I was able to get some patio reading in. I loved it and I'm looking forward to doing more of that in the future, although today is supposed to be rainy. I'm kinda okay with that though since the rain helps wash away the winter dirtiness. 

Thanks for stopping by. I hope you all have a good week. Happy reading!

Well, we had another blizzard this past week. Some places north of us got up to 24 inches of the white stuff. I think we only got about 8-10. It's hard to tell with all the wind! The university actually closed for 2½ days, which they have never done before. So I got an unexpected 4 day weekend!! 

I did get some reading in but for some reason (maybe because I'm hoping spring will actually be coming) I did some closet cleaning. It's kind of nice having that under control again. Oh, and I got our taxes filed. I'm not sure why I procrastinate doing those since we usually get a refund but they are done! 

Thanks for stopping by. I hope you all have a good week. Happy reading!
