You all might have noticed that I have not been doing as many reviews on the blog lately and in this post, I will tell you why. In March we found out that we will be moving in a different city (well it is more like a town) because of my husband's work and then BAM!!  Covid-19 happened and the Province of Ontario has been lockdown. The move was still happening though but just being delayed a bit.    When we got the ok to sell the house it was 2 months after we found out that we had to move. Just last week we had the first meeting with a realtor and the house should be up on the market next week. We are hoping to be at our new location in August.  I really thought I was still going to be able to do tons of reading and review during this self-isolation thing but I was wrong.  I haven't been able to sleep properly, I can't concentrate on reading much and I keep having nightmares that we can't sell the house. I am already one to have panic/ anxiety a...

This update is for day 1 and 2 of Bout of Books read-a thon.   Unfortunately I have only read about 10 pages during the past 2 days.   I was hoping on reading more than this but I have been busy cleaning and then I fixed my MacBook all by myself and of course had to update it and add the apps I use all the time on it.  On my downtime after dinner and after washing the dishes I didn't feel like reading and play some Animal Crossing  for a little while and by the time I get to bed I just fell asleep right away. I actually hasn't been reading as much  during the past 3 months. I thought because of the Covid-19 I would be a reading machine but life had other plans (I will update you all on that later on this week).  How are you doing with your reading?  What are you reading this week?
