Good morning! Today’s post will link up to The Sunday Salon, The Sunday Post and Stacking the Shelves, for weekly updates.
**Mailbox Monday is hosted at the home site: Mailbox Monday.
And let’s join Kathryn, our leader in It’s Monday! What Are You Reading?, at Book Date.
The weather has been very hot, but what else is new? I did curl up inside my air-conditioned space, reading and watching movies (saw The Boss, with Melissa McCarthy) and Netflix. I’ve been watching Doc Martin again. The folks in that little Cornish town are hilarious. Finished THREE books this week, and they were all different from one another, while being completely engaging. I love when that happens.
When I was up in Crescent City, I added Skype to my iPhone, since I didn’t have my laptop with me. We had hoped to connect with my eldest son in Prague while I was there, so my youngest son could also chat. But the timing was always off.
However, this week, my youngest son Skyped me on my iPhone…and it worked fine. Just like the laptop version. He is trying to set up a time to Skype with Eldest One. We even turned on our pictures and it was fun to see them in their living room, with Auggie (the dog), too.
In this photo from a while ago, Auggie’s the one on the right….LOL.
So…that was my week, and a tidbit from last week….so let’s look at a little bit more…
