~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It was an exhausting week this last week, Munchkin got sick again but it is mostly just coughing. Which means he can go to preschool but it also means lots of waking up at night.  So there weren't many nights of staying up late reading, but I again did a lot of listening to a book.  I must say I am enjoying audio books more and more as they allow me to get things done (like driving, crafts, laundry, etc) but still be enjoying a book.

I also wrapped up a pretty successful Month of Letters today too. Hopefully I will start getting some responses soon so I can keep up my writing. I am also thoroughly enjoying Post Crossing, I have added quite a bit to my stock of postcards so I have a great selection to choose from.

I also started a new series of art projects to work on some techniques and I am debating taking a stab at an art journal, but I have already ordered myself that I am not allowed to start that until I finish a scrapbook!


We also had some fun this weekend, I took Munchkin to Barnes & Noble to meet up with one of my bookish friends and to also go to story time. They were having a special story time to celebrate Dr. Seuss' birthday! I will have some pictures later, but also stay tuned for Wednesday,  I am working on a giveaway for the celebration here on the blog!

I hope you all have a great bookish week!

  1. I think if I ever have kids audio books will become a must! It will be nice not to have to give up books.

    1. It has been great, I used to listen to audio books a little every once in a while but now it has become a necessity. I don't have the time to get everything done and read a print or digital book, but now I can combine everything!
