Life:
This week
has been a nice and slow week. Perfect since we, my husband and I, have now both
the week off from work. And I don’t know about you guys, but the last view days
before a vacation are always the hard ones. I definitely didn’t have a lot of
energy for work this week. Funny how that always seems to happen the last days
before a vacation.

I had a
nice lunch date with two of my girlfriends on Wednesday, and I had to buy some
gifts which obviously let me to a bookstore. Sigh.. I love walking through a
bookstore and just browse through the books. I was very proud that I walked out
of that store with two gifts, and no new books for me. I wanted to buy lots of
new books off course, but I was able to control myself.

Friday
after work we had a ‘work’ barbeque which was a lot of fun. The weather wasn’t
all that good, but except for a view short moments of rain it stayed dry enough.
And now my husband and I have a week vacation. Yeah!!!! We are staying home,
but we planned some nice day trips.

Books & Blogging:
No new
books for me this week. I was able to keep up with my blogging which is always
a good thing, and I did manage to have some nice reading time. Off course I had
to watch the GOT finale, which made for one less evening of reading.. but it
was a good reason to read a little less. I mean WOW!! I can’t believe we have
to wait so long for the new season. But I plan on reading the GOT books before
the new season starts. 😀

This week
I hope to do some serious reading and blogging. It would be nice to have some
posts ready before I have to work again.

I know what you mean about the days right before a vacation. It always seems like I have a lot to do too, and have no motivation to do them. Congratulations on getting out of the bookstore with no books for yourself! I manage that now and then but usually end up getting my daughter a little something at least. That doesn't count, right? Haha.
I hope you and your husband have a nice vacation! Have a great week, Maureen.
That definitely doesn't count! 😉 It isn't often I manage to leave a bookstore without buying something.. so I was very proud! LOL!!
Thanks.. I'm so excited to do absolutely nothing this week!
Happy reading 😉
Glad you enjoyed the GOT finale! I need to start watching that show soon!
Here’s my Sunday Post!
Ronyell @ Rabbit Ears Book Blog and join in this week’s Book Photo Sundays!
You really should.. I love that show!! I'm even thinking on rewatching the show again.. but I already have so little time! LOL!
Happy reading! 😉
It was nice quiet week, glad it was for you too. And yes those last few days before you're off DRAG, don't they lol? Come on vacation, just start already! 🙂 Enjoy your vacation!
The Game of Thrones finale was pretty epic, wasn't it?
Thanks Greg. And that finale was definitely epic. Even days later I still can't stop talking about it! LOL!
It's incredible how we get so tired and fed-up just before our vacation… I think it has to do with the impatience of having more fun stuff to do 😉
I haven't watched GOT, only the very first episode. One day, I'm sure I will, but I just have too many great books on my hands right now, so that's all I want to do: read.
Have a wonderful week off and happy reading.
Lexxie @ (un)Conventional Bookviews
That's probably true Lexxie. Today for example I did nothing but read and blog a little. Heaven!! I imagined a day like this for weeks! 😀
Have a great week 😉
OMG the GoT finale! I'm still in shock! Totally worth losing an evening of reading for. (I'm hanging my head in shame, but it's true!)
It was so worth it! Sigh.. I won't tell if you don't?! 😉
Have a great week and happy reading!
Oh my. That GoT finale was all the kinds of awesome. I saw one spoiler on Twitter for it, but it didn't mamage to ruin the episode. My jaw was on the floor almost all the way through
Me too. I just loooooved it. And I honestely thought every episode should be as long as this one! LOL!
Have a great week 😉
I haven't seen Game of Thrones, but I hope to one day. Have a great week and enjoy your vacation. 🙂
Jenea's Book Obsession's Sunday Post
Thanks Jenea. GOT is amazing. I hope you get to see it one day! 😉
Have a great week!
So proud of you in that bookstore 🙂 have a great reading week 🙂
Thanks. I was pretty proud of myself too. 😀
I had zero reading or blogging time this week. It's going to catch up to me. I hope you enjoy your vacation!
That sucks Charlie. I hope you get more reading and blogging time this week 😉
We've been on a GOT marathon. My oldest son bought seasons 1-5 on disc because we don't get HBO. I'd already seen the first four seasons, so I'm watching the fifth one now. When I'm done with that, I guess I'll have to buy the next one.
Have a great week of reading and blogging!
My Sunday Post
That's awesome. I totally want to re-watch that series again. But I think I'll go with reading the books first. 😀
Happy reading!
Yay for a week vacation. I hope you have a wonderful time. So happy for you. My husband and I are planning a short trip too. We're still working on his schedule but hopefully it will happen soon.
Enjoy your books and happy reading, my friend. ❤️:)
Thanks Geybie. So far it's a great week. I hope you have a great trip too! 😉
I hope you have a great week off from work. It is great. My husband has just started his second week of his 3 week vacation so he knows the feeling you described well.
Thanks Annemieke. The last view days before work are definitely the worst.
Have a great week and happy reading.
