Can we get a do-over of the weekend? So much sadness all over the world. It’s usually during times like these that I take a lot of comfort in books but unfortunately Saturday I was in an allergy haze and finally had to take some allergy medicine which just knocks me out.
Sunday was spent trying to catch up on things but unfortunately most of my reading was just of online news and that wasn’t encouraging. I have a book group meeting on Tuesday and I’m nowhere near finishing my book. The mystery hasn’t really grabbed me but I’ll tell you more about it after book group meeting. I’m curious how the others liked the book.
However, I am on a mission. One of my dearest friends is coming to visit this weekend and we are going to be out and about enjoying Austin and especially the EAST Austin Studio Tour! I know I mention this event every year but it really is such a fun event.
The catalogs for the event are out at the local libraries but I stopped at one this weekend and they had already run out. So that means, I might be visiting a lot of libraries between now and Friday. Yes, you can find all about EAST online but I like collecting these.
Anyway, sorry for the lack of bookish news today but more soon. In the meantime, peace and hugs!
The weekend and this week so far (ha!) have been a bear. Here’s hoping for better things.
I think we are all hoping for better times. The studio tour should provide plenty of inspiration and help raise your spirits.
Allergies are bad. Hope you feel better.
I was hooked on the news also. Very sad.
What happened in Paris shook me quite a bit. I turned on the news, which is something I never do anymore.
It’s been such a weird week so far. We had to evacuate our office building on Monday and then today our main computer system was down for a good part of the day.
I hope you have a wonderful weekend with your friend. I also hope you are feeling better. I suffer from allergies too, and they can be quite awful.
Hi Iliana, I know, how sad and scary too.
I hope you enjoy your book club meeting and have a good week.
First of all, belated happy anniversary wishes to you guys! I am a little late catching up.
The East event sounds fun! I have only briefly been to Austin and did not have a chance to explore. Hoping to make it there some other time.
