  I am joining in with Sandra @ Diary of a SAHM The weather:::  I simply cannot complain.  The weather this last month has been beautiful.  Anywhere from mid-70's to low 90's.  Lots of sunshine.  I am blessed to have an amazing balcony that overlooks a park.  I sit out there nearly every day for 20-minutes to several hours.  It's my little piece of nature in the city.       On my reading pile:::   I finished reading "The Blue Bistro" by Elin Hilderbrand - you can read my short review on Goodreads. I'm currently reading "Gulf Coast Cottage" by Maggie Miller.  I'm feeling all the beach reads right now.  I'm almost done with this one.  It has really drawn me in and I'm glad there is an entire series!    On my TV:::    Watching the K-Drama "Mouse" with my best friend in New Hampshire.  It's really an edge-of-your-seat thriller about serial killers.  It has a ton of twists...

 I want to keep a record of this for the future, so I don't forget and so that perhaps other people can be enlightened about the different ways that COVID can affect the body.  Before I start, let me tell you that all of us have stayed home unless absolutely necessary.  We have always worn masks.  We missed several holidays and birthdays the first year with family.  We took precautions, washed hands, used sanitizers.  We did all of the things we were supposed to do.  But it still wasn't enough. EASTER SUNDAY:  My two daughters and I went to my dad's house to cook a big Easter dinner.  We were probably there a little over an hour when my Dad mentioned that he wasn't feeling great.  No cough, no sore throat, nothing visible .... just sort of feeling run down.  He's a 77-year-old man, so this didn't really come as a huge surprise.  Several days later my Dad said that he was feeling MUCH IMPROVED!  I was so happy because I had...

  I'm linking up with Sandra for Happy Homemaker Monday!  The weather:::  It has been really hot for most of the past week, at or close to 90 degrees!  Today it is mid-80s and muggy.  We are expecting thunderstorms for the rest of the week.    On my reading pile:::   I finished reading "A Year of Biblical Womanhood" which was interesting, funny, and informative.  However I couldn't shake the feeling that some things she made light of.  I also read "5 Things Successful People Do Before 8 A.M." by Terri Savelle Foy.  I'm always trying to get my morning routine to become a habit.  This book was very motivating and from a Christian perspective.   I read Angie Thomas's "On the Come Up" - pretty good.  Right now I am reading "Return to Me" by Lynn Austin   On my TV:::    Days of Our Lives You Tube videos The Chosen - This is WONDERFUL.  You can watch the entire first season for free on You...
