It’s Monday! What Are You Reading, is where we gather to share what we have read this past week and what we plan to read this week. It is a great way to network with other bloggers, see some wonderful blogs, and put new titles on your reading list.
Other Than Reading...
The first week of school is under my belt and I have had a chance to meet all my new classes. Everything went great. I just wish the "honeymoon period" would last all semester. I really like this semester's schedule which has me finishing my work day at 11:30 AM.
I am all nicely settled in back here at home. I have begun my purging in anticipation of moving next June by going through just one closet of clothes I seldom wear. I brought a load of bags to the Salvation Army this week. I have also begun listing what foods I have in my freezer and cupboards both to refresh my memory about what I already have and to keep track of what I use. I'm hoping to not buy still another can or jar of something I already have.

I love all the books coming out that play with various mythologies, especially those that bring them into the modern world. I finally found the last book in Tera Lynn Child's Medusa series. I'm looking forward to reading it this week. I'm glad to hear your school hear is off to a good start!
ReplyDeleteI've never tried asking for an ARC. I wish I knew how to do that.
ReplyDeleteI remember the honeymoon period well - everyone's excited about their new school supplies and happy to see their friends again...and then reality sets in that you've got another 10 months to go until summer vacation again. ;)
ReplyDeleteOh nice! All totally new to me reads!
ReplyDeleteI think my sister missed the "honeymoon" period with her class this year. Of course she's at a new school and has been warned numerous times that she has the chatty group. Hope your year will continue to go well though!
