It's Monday! What Are You Reading? is a place to meet up and share what you have been, are and about to be reading over the week. It's a great post to organize yourself. It's an opportunity to visit and comment, and er... add to that ever growing TBR pile! So welcome in everyone. This meme started with J Kaye's Blog and then was taken up by Sheila from Book Journey. Sheila then passed it on to Kathryn at the Book Date. And here we are!
It has been such an eventful last 4-5 days around here! Last week was shorted because mother nature felt it was a great time to drop some tornadoes on us! We showed her though - lots of damage but no injuries or fatalities.. Points for us!
Now it is on to school things with the kids! Got Liam's Valentines done for his class and now moving onto Jacelyn's Valentines! We picked such cute ones for her class this year! I will post a picture when we have them done.. I am also working on getting some things redone around the house! I am working on getting all of our pictures put onto canvas type things. I am doing some collages and some singles but I think they look much better that way!
January was a good month for books around here. I did not get to every single one I wanted to, but I am aiming to get to ALL the books I have planned for February, as well as throwing in some just because ones - since I always read books that are never on the schedule lol. Now, onto the fun stuff!

ReplyDeleteIt never fails.. I got a new one today that is not on my list - but I plan to read it this week because I am so excited about it! Thanks for stopping in :)
DeleteWow, tornadoes! We get snow blizzards but I've never experienced a tornado. Yeah, volunteering and helping with school stuff keeps us busy. I was making a platter for teacher appreciation this week.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your reading week!

It was a mess around here! I've been through hurricanes before, but these kind of storms still scare the mess out of me!
DeleteEnjoy your book this week! That is a new one to me.
ReplyDeleteWe're working on my daughters valentines this week, too. It's her first time having to do valentines (preschool), and she's so excited about it. :)
It was a new one to me too, but it sounded very interesting so I wanted to give it a shot! I hope she has a blast making her Valentines!
DeleteTornadoes are scary! Being from the north, I'm used to blizzards and snowstorms, but not sure I'd be able to get used to that. Enjoy your books this week.
ReplyDeleteThey are scary! I will take snow anyday!
DeleteWhat a hectic week, but it sounds like you got a lot accomplished! Rumor Has It looks really interesting and anticipate your review. Happy reading.
ReplyDeleteAmazingly I was able to get a lot done! So glad things are calming down now! Thanks for stopping in :)
DeleteI'm glad everyone is safe!
ReplyDeleteI have to get valentines for my son's class today. I swear, those classes get bigger every year!!
They do! In my sons class there is 12 ppl -- 11 if you don't count having to make one for him.. In my daughters class there is 20.. not counting her or the teacher!
DeleteOh my sounds like a project getting those Valentines done. House projects sound good, so satisfying. My next plan is to get a bookcase build and a window seat maybe. Plans! Enjoy your reading this week.
ReplyDeleteThis year she picked cute little print off tic tac toe boards and she is going to put conversation hearts in each bag as the little pieces to play the game with! I thought it was super cute!
DeleteI'm glad to read you and your loved ones are safe. And oh boy did you remind me that I need to get my girls working on their Valentines as it's technically Sunday and I don't know what the heck is going on in their classes for it. Oh shoot.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know until I emailed her teacher! I was like - it's almost here and she needs to pick something!
DeleteWelcome to this wonderful meme, I am on my 9th one and loving it!Your books look good,I hope they were as good as they look-LOL. I am making Valentine goodie bags for my co-workers (they have no idea-lol). And I am signed up!! Have a great week and Happy Valentine's Day!!

I love photos on canvas! So pretty. We went to Hawaii and got several of our shots printed on canvas. They look fantastic. Some good reads for you this week too! Happy Reading!
ReplyDeleteWow! I thought our 85 mile an hour gales were bad but that's nothing compared to tornadoes, glad everyone made it through safely.
ReplyDeleteHappy reading :)
Yikes, tornadoes! We're dealing with a snowstorm here. Glad everyone came through safely. Enjoy your reads!
