I have got to tell you a funny thing that happened to me the other day. So it’s late on Saturday and I’m browsing Amazon and I realize that there’s a new book in the Victoria Thompson Gaslight series and I’m like yes, I want it! I was all excited and wasn’t paying attention to the date of the release because at that point I realize my Kindle was almost out of power. Of course I couldn’t find the cord, I’m trying not to make too much noise because the house is all quiet now, and finally about a good 20 minutes later I finally realize the book isn’t even out yet!
Well, all I can say is I have pre-ordered my book and my Kindle is fully charged now. Ha.
We had a really great weekend and even though there were tons of fun events around town we tried to do some stuff around the house. I finally switched to Feedly. Thank you for the input you guys. I’m still getting used to is so please bear with me while I get all updated!
I worked on some art jouranling, which is so much fun. My craft table is a constant craft chaos so please excuse the mess. Here’s some of what I worked on:
And, we did go to the bookstore of course. I used my coupon for Midwinter Blood by Mons Kallentoft. You know how much I enjoy those Scandinavian crime novels. I also took note of some other books that sounded really good (had a hard time choosing a book and I almost left without one!) but I’ll tell you about those books in another post.
Now I’m off to enjoy a few more weekend hours before the work week starts again. What did you do this weekend?
Don’t feel bad, I’ve done that too! Usually under the influence of a glass of wine. I haven’t used my B&N coupon yet. I have such a hard time, because I am such a slow print reader, and will never EVER finish reading what I have now! I still can’t help myself.
Heh, I’ve been so excited about discovering a favorite author has a new book out that I have done that too, completing missing that the book hasn’t been published yet.
Glad to hear you found something to spend your B&N coupon on! I wish I could use those along with my employee discount… 😉
Are you heading to Germany again this year? We have a couple of trips planned to the PNW in the next few weeks, so it’s going to be hectic around here, too!
Thanks for visiting my blog. I’ve been out of touch and enjoyed hearing from you!
That happened to me too, hehe.
Oh, I haven’t switched mine to Feedly yet… I need to do so soon and I hope it’s not much of a hassle.
Hope you’ve a great week, Iliana! 🙂
I love your journaling pages!
OMG! I love your art journal! I’m looking at mine and wondering what to do with the page I’m currently working on.
Sandy – Ooh, wine that was what was missing from my weekend 🙂
Stefanie – Isn’t that a hoot. I just felt like such a goofball but hey, it’s all about the books! 🙂
LesNE – I think you should be able to use your employee discount too! Yes, we’ll be heading to Germany later in the year and I’m ready now! ha… I’ve been very out of touch myself. Life, you know 😉
Meldoy – So good to hear from you! So far, I’m liking Feedly and am getting used to it already!
Isabel – Thanks girl! I finally found gesso that I like! I owe you an email and I’ll tell you more about it then.
Vasilly – Thank you! I feel like I’m really on a creating streak with my art journaling so I love exploring new materials and stuff. You need to post one of your pages. Would love to see!
