My best friend was in town this weekend and we had such a great time. Got to enjoy dinner with some other friends and we saw lots of art at EAST. One of my favorite places that we visited was Flatbed Press. It had been a while since I’d been there so there were new installations and galleries to see. I also caught a glimpse of the new Austin Book Arts Center. I’m hoping to sign up for some classes next year.
Last but not least, we also visited the East Austin Succulents and I found this cute, mini plant (shark included) for my office. Isn’t it fun?
Of course after a whirlwind of a weekend, it’s hard to get back to work but at least this is a short week. I hope I can finally catch up on my reading. I finally finished one book but I have a feeling my two reading challenges for this month are going to be a bust.
Anyway, on my mind right now is an email I got from Amazon regarding trade-in my old Kindle for a new one. I have one of the Kindle keyboard ones and while I don’t use it that much I am interested in the Kindle Paperwhite, especially because of the built in light. So, for you guys who have Kindles, what do you think of this one? Do you recommend it?
Ok, now to get ready for bed. Hope you guys have a great start of the week!
My kindle is ancient so I can offer no advice, but I wanted to say that sounds like a perfect weekend!
I love your succulents with the shark!
I have killed two kindles so my advice is no. However, my husband has had a very nice basic Kindle for a couple years and likes it very much and has never had any problems with it (probably because I have never read on it!)
I love that plant of yours! The shark in particular looks fun. I have the original Kindle and I actually prefer that one for its tiny size and thinness. I haven’t checked the Paperwhite yet.
I am glad you and your best friend had a great time together, Iliana! What a beautiful plant! I love the shark. Haha
I love my Paperwhite. It has served me very well the last couple years. I recently got one of the new Kindle Fires because I wanted more of a tablet, but I still read more from my Paperwhite and use the tablet for other things.
