The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Caffeinated Book Reviewer.
It's a chance to share news: a post to recap the past week on your blog, showcase books,
and share what's coming up on your blog in the week ahead.
I worked only two days this week and it's been divine having off five days in a row. I've been loving it. If there's a vote to switch from working five/off two to working two/off five... let me know, will you? I'm a big fan.
December must be my lucky month, or 2020 decided to try to make up for the last nine months, because I have won four giveaways this month! I rarely even enter giveaways. I'm not one to enter just anything for the sake of winning; instead, I only enter when I am truly interested in what is offered. So to win four giveaway at all is pretty amazing, and considering it's been in the span of about three weeks is just crazy. (1) I won an audio book from Anne at Books of My Heart. (2) I won a book of my choice from Stephanie at Once Upon a Chapter. (3) I won an Amazon gift card from Michelle at Because Reading Is Better Than Real Life. (4) And yesterday I received an email from Goodreads saying I'd won a copy of Kate Clayborn's Love at First. I'm feeling pretty spoiled and so very thankful. And I'll be doing a few giveaways very soon so I can pay it forward.
For those that celebrate, I hope you had a wonderful Christmas. Our main celebration is usually Christmas Eve and we did find a way to gather this year. We booked the amenities center in my neighborhood for my extended family of ten. We spaced out the three tables for each family, handed out gifts while wearing masks, and everyone brought their own food so there was no sharing. So, together but separate. We made the best of the situation and everyone seemed to agree that it was a success.
Christmas Day was a lot quieter. The Husband and I exchanged some gifts, and my mom came over for lunch. It's hard to buy a ham for just three people so now I'm determined to serve ham with every meal. Cereal for breakfast? Have a side of ham! Salad for lunch? How about a ham sammie on the side? What's that, you're tired of ham? Too bad, eat some more! :)
Any plans for New Years Eve? I imagine most of the big celebrations are cancelled (at least I hope they are) but however you ring in the new year this coming week, I hope it's filled with health and happiness for us all. Here's to 2021... may it bring better things.
This Millennium Mix of Auld Lang Syne by Kenny G has been a favorite of mine for many years. Enjoy.

WHAT I COMPLETED IN THE LAST WEEK
I've mentioned that I was in a bit of a reading slump after trying to force myself to read a book I wasn't enjoying. (Not something I would normally do, but it was for a book club and I felt obligated.) I'm happy to say that my reading finally picked back up this week!
