Happy Monday

Weekly report of last week's activities, reading and new books in the house....

Last week was not a usual week for me. No gym, no volleyball, no library until Friday and very little reading. I did visit. . .
Afton Canyon, CA


Red Rock Canyon, NV


Valley of Fire, NV

. . . and the Barstow, CA outlets (new shoes!),  I'm so ready for a foot soak and a pedicure!


Oh, I was able to download the Color Run pictures :-)

Friday - all those pesky things that must be done when your away a few days....mail, groceries, laundry (library!), catching up with blog things, ...

Saturday -

Sunday -


Hope everyone has a great week planned!

Mailbox Monday is a place to share all the wonderful books that have come to live in your home; print, electronic and audio. Started by Marcia of The Printed Page, the mailbox is currently on tour. Check it out so you know where to go next month.

Thank you to Kristen at BookNAround for hosting in September.

October's host is Marcia at Mailbox Monday.

Thank you!

I have no idea why the captcha thing is showing up. I've got the setting marked "no" that I don't want it. Grrrrrr! But, I believe that if you skip entering anything it will post.
