Here’s the thing-

I have books to read, but I don’t want to read them.

I think what’s happened is that I planned on getting through my backlist of TBR books this year with the intention of finishing them early.

After that I was going to buy a Billy bookcase from IKEA (with the extension and extra shelves of course) and start at the end of the alphabet author-wise and reread ALL of my favorite authors!!

Shifting as I went along to make space for everything and leaving room for growth depending on the series and author.

…I think I got too excited about my favorite authors and so now these other ones are paling.

Not all is lost!

My mother reads about a dozen books at the same time, just one chapter each, and so I figured I’d give it a try (again).

I used to read multiple books at the same time too, but haven’t in years to the same extent.

Now, if one of the books ends up being really good I’ll just finish it and then go back to one chapter at a time until I’m done.

Wish me luck and good reading everyone!!

See ya!

Technically I’m almost done with vacation which was really a not-go-anywhere vacation and just chill.

I thoroughly enjoyed myself which is why there was no post last Monday…

Sorry!

Surprisingly, I haven’t read too much or watched Stargate this vacation. I just did a ton of cleaning around the house and got some crafty things done.

Not to say we haven’t watched Stargate! And I am about halfway through the latest Nalini Singh book, Archangel’s Lineage.

I’ve just gone with the flow and not stressed about what I had to get done before work again.

It’s been fabulous!

I’ll try and post the crafty things I got done next week, but I am still working in them and go back to work Tuesday.

Until then!

We finally got to the episode where McKay shows up at the SGC and he totally didn’t disappoint!!

My mother hates him and I’m just sitting here grinning like a fool knowing what happens in Atlantis and KNOWING she’s going to end up loving him!!

She didn’t like Hammond at first either and loves him now, so you know the character development is what’s doing it.

I think I’ll suggest the Legacy series to her when we’re done with Atlantis. I think she’d enjoy it!

I have two days off in a row and though I have plans, I also have had a hankering to read the novella with Snow in it again.

We shall see!

Ta for now!!

Sorry for the brief silence. I was busy watching the solar eclipse and putting in an application for a scholarship opportunity.

To make up for it, here are a few pics of the solar eclipse I got!!

I didn’t download an app or anything because I didn’t have time to find a good one so I just put a pair of eclipse glasses over the camera lense and took pics that way!

Aren’t they great!!

After months and months and months and months and (y’all get the picture), I finally finished ‘Pride of the Genii’!

Only to discover that I have somehow read some of the books more then the others?!

I have no idea how that happened, but now I feel like I have to catch them all up so I’ve read all the Atlantis book the same amount of times.

*le sigh*

A readers work is never done!

I know this one’s short and doesn’t have an actual review, but the whole book was pretty much about the Genii. Still not a fan.

Until next week, stay safe and read a book!

I only have 2-3 chapters left and I’ll be done with the last book!! (Again!)

But it’s 2am and I desperately need sleep cause I work the next five days in a row.

Ciao peeps!

Also probably getting sick to be honest.

Stay safe everyone!

Best laid plans and all.

I didn’t finish the last last Legacy book. We were so busy and it didn’t go too well.

Anyways!

I’m working my way through the last small pile still of my owned TBR books. I’ll admit to getting more books (1 I’d already read and it wasn’t a keeper), but I had free books from ThriftBooks to use up and I kept forgetting until the literal last day I could use them and I somewhat panicked.

I did get 2 present books for me mama though!

I also got another cross-stitch done.

Isn’t he cute!

I have to put him in the frame of course, but not bad!

I’ve started the last cross-stitches I have, which is technically a Christmas present so I feel like I can count my cross-stitching backlist done right?

Almost, I’m almost done!

Till next week!

I will be traveling for work again which means I’ll be able to finish the last Legacy book this week.

That just means I’ll be finishing the book again. Certainly doesn’t mean I’ll be stopping my reading or watching of Stargate.

My mama and I are having a blast watching Stargate SG-1 and I cannot wait for when Rodney shows up!!

(I know I’ve said that before but y’all understand!)

Unfortunately there will be a break from Stargate related posts, unless it’s about SG-1, because of my plans for this year. I’ll still be collecting the SG-1 books, but most likely won’t be reading them until later.

For now, y’all have a great week and I’ll see you next time!

I am so close to being done with my massive backlog of books I’m shocked!!

I’ve got 4-5 more to go and only 2 we’re actually part of my backlog. The others are Christmas presents from favorite authors I absolutely must read!

This also means I’m almost done with that last Atlantis book too.

I’ve already mentioned I have other plans this year that aren’t reading and crafting, but I assure y’all I’ll have content.

I also think I’ll start getting the Stargate SG-1 novels in earnest now since I’m watching it through again with my mama.

…This is a bit of a rambler but I was called out of town again to help a new store and I’m dog sitting again, but I’m not getting good sleep because they’re sick and have to keep going out throughout the night.

I am so tired.

To bed with me!
