A woman doing yoga in a living room is startled by a cat playfully grabbing her hair. Text reads "The hazard of yoga at home." Humorous tone.

Get ready because next week our blog about indoor exercise and how to stay physically healthy while stuck indoors comes out.

TTT #277 ~ Random Books From My Shelf Happy Tuesday y'all! This week's topic is "The First 10 Books I Randomly Grabbed from My Shelf." I had some help with this one.

On today's #TopTenTuesday I'm listing random books from my shelves with the help of my son. What's on your shelves?

WoW #318 ~ Silver & Blood Happy Wednesday y'all! This week I'm eagerly waiting on Silver & Blood by , an adult romantasy with all the makings of Beauty and the Beast tied into the blurb. I could be WAAAAY off base with the retelling assumption as I haven't read it yet, BUT I do believe based on the blurb alone that it is at bare minimum inspired by the tale.

WoW #317 ~ Graceless Heart Happy Wednesday y'all! This week I'm eagerly waiting on Graceless Heart by , an adult fantasy romance set in Renaissance Italy. I fell in love with Ibañez's work a few years ago and have devoured her fantasy novels (still need to read her Woven in Midnight series). I adore her writing style which fully immerses you in the setting and magic. This one deals with immortals and forbidden magic. I cannot wait to dive in!

This week I'm eagerly waiting on GRACELESS HEART, a historical, romantic fantasy set in Renaissance Italy. What are you waiting on this week?

Sunday Post #278 ~ 81 days Happy Sunday y'all! This week and year are moving at a lightening pace. There are only 19 days to Halloween, 46 days to Thanksgiving, 74 days to Christmas, and 81 days to the New Year 🤯 With the holiday season rapidly approaching, I'm feeling a little anxious. Normally, I've started (and nearly completed) my shopping by now, but I haven't even looked yet.

Sunday Post #277 ~ Fall is in the Air Happy Sunday y'all! I'm happy to be back to blogging after a short break in September. Vacation was amazing, but also exhausting. I had big plans to be back full time after Disney, but you need a vacation to rest after Disney 😅 This was our fourth year going, and as always, we had a blast and have already booked next year's trip.

WoW #315 ~ We Who Will Die Happy Wednesday y'all! This week I'm eagerly waiting on We Who Will Die by . I am a sucker for fantasies set in a Roman-inspired world. Add in vampires, and I'm hooked.

WoW #314 ~ And Then There Was the One Happy Wednesday y'all! This week I'm eagerly waiting on And Then There Was the One by . I really enjoyed this author's The Regency Vows series, so I was excited to see a new romance come out. This one is loosely inspired by Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None, which I enjoyed. I love the clever play on the title, and I'm excited to for the murder mystery twist in the romance.

Sunday Post #275 ~ It’s Football Time Happy Sunday y'all! I missed y'all last week. It's been a busy few weeks. Football season is now in full swing. While little man doesn't play, my husband is a former player which means we watch football all weekend long 😅 Honestly, I don't mind. I enjoy watching and impressing him with all my new football knowledge 🤣 AND my VOLS are winning so everyone is happy in my house.

A book sale hurt my wallet and I finished four books all on today's #SundayPost

TTT #271 ~ Books I Want to Re-Read Happy Tuesday y'all! This week's topic is "Books I’d Like to Re-read." I'm a re-reader. I love to re-read my favorites and previous books in series when the new book comes out. I'd say about at least a tenth of my reading every year is re-reads. I enjoy it as much as re-watching a favorite show or movie. AND it's the best way (for me, at least) to get out of a reading slump.

#TopTenTuesday Today's topic is "Books I'd Like to Re-Read." I love to re-read so it was hard narrowing down to ten. What books would make your list?

Sunday Post #273 ~ Summer Days Happy Sunday y'all! This week marked our last summer camp for little man. Three weeks in a row and we're all tired 😅 He participated in a couple of local drama camps and had a blast. I know I'm his mom, so I'm biased, BUT his talent really does amaze me. To get up in front of a crowd of people he doesn't know and nail a monologue that he worked on over three days is impressive.

Sunday Post #272 ~ VBS & More Camps Happy Sunday y'all! VBS is in the books. It was so much fun. Little man volunteered with me this year. I had a great group of 2nd graders, he worked with 5th graders. The church was packed to the brim. I heard that we had around 1100 kids (don't quote me on that, I didn't hear the final count) each day.

Sunday Post #271 ~ May ’25 in Review Happy Sunday y'all! I can't believe it's the first of June already 🤯 May was super busy as always. We finished up our homeschooling year, and little man will be starting high school in the fall which blows my mind. When I started blogging, he was about to turn three. Now, he's fourteen, taller than me, and started shaving this month 😅 Not ready to let go of calling him little man, but I guess he really isn't that little any more.

Take a look back at May with me on today's #SundayPost. What was your favorite read last month?

I'm eagerly waiting on Mallory Marlowe's LOVE AT FIRST SIGHTING, which puts a paranormal spin on the typical rom-com. What are you waiting on this Wednesday?

Sunday Post #270 ~ School’s Out for Summer Happy Sunday y'all! This week we wrapped up little man's 8th grade year. It's hard to believe that he will be starting high school in the fall. We still plan on homeschooling, as it seems to be how he learns best. While we are officially done, we are working on math a little still. We switched curriculums about 9 weeks into school, so we're playing catch up.

WoW #296 ~ A Forgery of Fate Happy Wednesday y'all! This week I'm eagerly waiting on A Forgery of Fate by . I love Lim's writing style and have happily devoured all of her YA fantasies. This one is a romantic fantasy inspired by Beauty and the Beast. I will admit that after seeing that first sentence in the blurb and the cover that I instantly preordered this one 😂 Now that I have taken the time to read the rest of the blurb, I'm even more excited which I didn't think possible. Dragons 😁 Seriously, CANNOT wait.

Sunday Post #261 ~ February ’25 in Review Happy Sunday y'all! I can't believe we have finished another month already. For February to be the shortest month of the year, it felt like the longest. We were so busy with birthdays and other family stuff that it passed in a whirlwind. Reading wise, I had a good month. I finished 10 books, six were audiobooks. I DNF'ed one. March is shaping up to be another busy month, but that's ok.

WoW #295 ~ Titan of the Stars Happy Wednesday y'all! This week I'm eagerly waiting on 's Titan of the Stars. I love Johnston's sci-fi novels. I've read as many as I can get my hands on, so when I saw this one on NetGalley, I knew I needed to add it to my TBR shelf. This particular book is billed as a YA sci-fi horror, think cross between Aliens and Titanic. Aside from who wrote it, I only needed to know that. I cannot wait to read this one!

I'm eagerly waiting on E.K. Johnston's TITAN OF THE STARS, a YA sci-fi horror. What new releases are you waiting on this Wednesday?

Sunday Post #260 ~ 14 & 39 Happy Sunday y'all! The last two weeks have gone by in a blur. Little man turned 14 on Monday which doesn't seem possible. I feel like he should still be this tiny newborn who kept me up at all hours of the night. Instead, he's grown into a handsome, funny young man who is taller than me and let's everyone know it 😂 Yesterday, I hit 39 and spent the day with family who spoiled me with books and Lego flowers 😁 Reading wise, I only managed to finish one book.
