Weekly Recap # 5: Week of 6/11-6/17
It’s time for another weekly recap post of all things happening on and off the blog. This week I’ll be linking to the Sunday Post, which is hosted by Caffeinated Book Reviewer and to Stacking the Shelves, which is hosted by Tynga’s Reviews.
First, let me take a minute to wish all of the Dads out there, mine included, a very Happy Father’s Day! I took my dad out to lunch yesterday to celebrate and we had a lovely time. Today I’ll be celebrating with my husband, son, and Father-in-Law so it has been a full weekend of Father’s Day festivities.
Off the blog, this week was all about my son. This week he finished up the fourth grade so we were busy with awards ceremonies and other end-of-year activities. He finished the year with straight A’s so that was definitely a proud mom moment for me. I took him to the library yesterday to pick up a few books for summer reading. Right now he’s really into the Henry Huggins series from Beverly Cleary, which were some of my favorites growing up so it’s fun to watch him enjoy the same series I did.
Let’s see, on the blog I had a pretty good week, although I came down with a head cold on Thursday and so have had such a case of medicine head since then that I haven’t read much. I did start The Inexplicable Logic of My Life and it’s fabulous. Great pick for Father’s Day weekend because it features a wonderful father/son relationship between the main character and his adoptive Dad. As you’ll see from my Stacking The Shelves section below, I also had several books on reserve at the library that became available this week so I need to get moving on those and I also got approved for a couple more ARCS so I have plenty of books to keep me busy for a while. 🙂
That’s it for me. Have a great week, everyone!
