It's been a bit since I've joined with one of these - hope everyone's been doing well!
Since I've hardly kept up on doing anything regularly since I've been back in-office full time in early May, this may jump around a bit.
Most of my blogging is still book-ish, so feel free to check out my last three reviews: The Flight Attendant (3 out of 5 stars), The Witches of Moonshyne Manor (5 out of 5 stars), and Devil's Chew Toy (4 out of 5 stars).
I'm currently reading Her Majesty's Royal Coven (hoping to finish later today), The Fortunes of Jaded Women, and casually browsing a pdf of Luminary: A Magical Guide to Self Care while waiting for my paper copy (the pdf keeps losing my place!).
But I don't live by books alone, right? Oh, wait. Maybe I do.
The rest of my, well, day:
Working full-time is severely messing up my ability to manage the rest of my life. Like, for real. Today I still need to do more of my theatre booster treasurer responsibilities (I HATE QUICKBOOKS!!!), get together a renewal lease for the tenants of the house we never sold, and finish disbursing my paycheck from Friday to various medical bills and other things I want to go away.
Ending on a happy note, three great things:
A beautiful day with my kids at the Michigan Renaissance Festival yesterday! If you're local and waiting to go, check out the ticket giveaway at Yes/No Detroit. After a cool-ish beginning to the week (and I think it's cool again by the end of this week), yesterday was mid-80s and mostly sunny! I got a cute huntress costume off of Amazon, but had no need for a cape yesterday!
While 'great' may be overstating it, I'm going in for my first annual physical in seven years this week. LOL I did the advance testing and am ready to hear that I still feel pretty darn healthy for breaching the second half of my first century (why yes, I am an optimist frequently).
And I'm starting planning for my baby's 11th birthday next month! He's opted to have a super fun day and sleepover with one friend instead of a party, and I admit I'm a bit relieved. My biggest planning will be a family party with his grandparents, aunts & uncles, and cousins over for dinner. Now to help him pick a dinner....

Sounds like a pretty good week! We've been having the 80s and 90s temps here still and I'm so ready to get back into the 70s and even cooler! Hope you have a good week!

The festival sounds great. I miss living in Michigan, I am in hot and humid Florida.
I'm sorry that your blogging has been limited by your return to working in the office. I wish there were more opportunities to work from home for people.
We are visiting family in Chicago and the weather is fantastic. I'm not accustomed to such cool weather back home in Texas.
The Renaissance festival sounds like great fun.
Beautiful blog
Thanks for the links! Also, how is your baby 11 ... wasn't he like, 7, a few years ago when I saw him in my work lobby?! lol. Probably.
That Michigan Renaissance Festival sounds like fun. And that is great news your health is doing well. Good luck with planning your kids birthday. I hope this week is a good one!
