Hey y’all. (Yes, I’m showing my Texas roots.) It’s been months, but I’ve decided to bring back a regular Friday feature. I enjoyed writing my week in review posts. Last fall life got in the way, and before I realized it months had passed without me posting one.
Since it’s the first Friday of August, I thought this would be a good time to resume them. So what’s going on in my world this week? Hubs took some vacation time, so I also decided to take a few days. We didn’t do a long “get away” vacation this year, but its good to have some time to relax. As I said in my Tuesday post, I’m trying to devlote more time to reading.
Speaking of reading, if you want something short and easy, but that will keep you entertained, check out my review of The Scout by D. L. Cross.
