It's Monday! What Are You Reading? February 5, 2024 #IMWAYR

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!

Not a real eventful week. Our 15 yo granddaughter came over from school one day last week for lunch. She does that once in awhile. Her school is right across the street. She says I make the best lunches ever. Of course, is she comparing mine to school lunches? Ha ha.

Weather-wise, we had a few nice sunny days and hubs and I went out for walks. Lately it's been so foggy and overcast, no sun. I know I should be walking in that kind of weather too but it's hard to get motivated when it's so gloomy out. And I don't think we'll be seeing the sun for awhile. Bummer.

This week, I'm meeting one set of friends for lunch and another set for dinner. I'm so blessed with friends. Then on the weekend, I'm going to my daughter's place. She lives an hour away. We are going to a Bloody Mary Fest on Saturday. I love Bloody Mary's and am always on the hunt for THE best one! It should be fun.

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

Happy reading!

It's Monday! What Are You Reading? January 29, 2024 #IMWAYR

**************************************

Well, it seems to be warming up a bit here, in the 40's this week. I know winter is not done with us yet, but it is almost February. How did that happen?

Yesterday we watched football all day. Our family has been huge Chiefs fans for forever, even in the losing years. It's so exciting to be on a winning streak now. My DIL is a big Lions fan so we were cheering for them as well. The Chiefs made it to the Super Bowl again!! Are you a football fan?

I made a big pot of chili—perfect football-watching food, in my opinion—and our son and 9 year old grandson came over to watch the game with us. And a Chiefs win? What a perfect afternoon.

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

Happy reading!
