So while I was enjoying my low-key weekend, the book blogging world was all a-frenzy with excellent topics and discussions. The Longstockings started a great discussion on services like Bookswim, ACAF&ATC posted in response with another great discussion, Shelftalker and Librarilly Blonde talked about the lack of YA titles on Summer Reading Lists (which I agree is only going to keep teens away from books all summer), and just as my annual urge for Christmas in July hit fever pitch I heard about this excellent sounding new YA title–too bad it won’t be out until October! I have a lot of catching up to do.
I took a break from blogging this weekend to enjoy the first one I’ve had in more than a month without any big plans. I love plans as much as the next gal, but relaxing at home and just puttering around has been a great and much needed change. One of those weekends where I actually did pretty much everything I wanted. I worked on the quilt, cooked, read, had brunch with my mother and went fabric shopping, looked through magazines that had been piling up since winter, went for an Indian Head Massage for some migraine relief, watched the Netflix movie that’s been lying around here since April, finished another audio book, shopped some summer sales online, made a new playlist for my commute, and topped it off with Adam and I playing with the grill for dinner tonight. Even my relaxation is busy. But it’s the first weekend in ages where I don’t have the Sunday Night Blues because I did so much fun and productive stuff.
