It's Monday! What Are You Reading? is a place to meet up and share what you have been, are and about to be reading over the week. It's a great post to organize yourself. It's an opportunity to visit and comment, and er... add to that ever growing TBR pile! So welcome in everyone. This meme started with J Kaye's Blog and then was taken up by Sheila from Book Journey. Sheila then passed it on to Kathryn at the Book Date.
Welcome to the first Monday of March. It is a cold one here. In an effort to bring on spring, I started my seeds indoors. I am also trying to keep the Lil' Diva's aloe vera plants alive since she forgets to water them. I brought the grow light back into my office for additional light.
Other than that, preparing for a closing, and I spent two whole days and two half days handwriting notes to my clients to mail out their annual seed packets. It's a fun activity, but it does take me a while. Most of them will go out today.
More photos from my week...
The snow behind our house is almost gone. We are expecting rain this week, so if it warms up for long enough, we might be done with it for a while. Of course, I feel like we will have a bit more snow before spring officially arrives.
Picked up the Lil' Princess from the airport last night. She is home for the week! Travis was patiently waiting while I washed her comforter and pillowcases so that her bed was ready for her.
In case you missed them, I reviewed the following books last week.
Mailbox Monday is a gathering place for readers to share the books they added to their shelves the previous week. This weekly meme is now hosted by Vicki at I'd Rather Be At The Beach.
No new physical books, but I was approved for this book last week. You will see I reviewed it yesterday.
Upcoming events:
- Sunset Bay by Karen Stewart - Mar 11 (First Chapter Review)
- Gitel's Freedom by Iris Mitlin Lav - Date TBD (Review)
At Christmas Year Round I posted about The Hallmark Experience, which will be back in 2025. You can read my post here.
At The Children's and Teens' Book Connection I reviewed one of my new NetGalley downloads. You can read the review here.
At Laura's Little Houses, I compared The Little House in the Big Woods and Little House on the Prairie to the pilot of the Little House on the Prairie show. You can read that here.
That's it from me today. Looking forward to visiting your blogs.

I love the cover of If God Were A Great Big Bear
You have some good books in your lineup. A grow light can be so helpful for plants. We used to start seedlings with one,
We have a bit of bare ground showing too. I know it's just a tease because snow is expected Tuesday and Wednesday. Your books look good. Come see my week here. Happy reading!
Me, too, Mary. Such great colors. Thanks for visiting.
Thanks, Tina. We don't have many sunny spots in our house. Appreciate the visit.
So true, Kathy. February always toys with us, and then we get more snow. Thanks for visiting today.
Those seeds look wonderful in their cosy home. And lovely idea to mail some out to your clients. Happy reading.
Thanks, Kathryn. I haven't tried starting seeds inside in years. We will see how it goes. Thanks for visiting.
That's so nice that you send your clients annual seed packets with hand written notes. I bet they appreciate that. I hope your daughter has a nice visit! Cats do love helping put beds together. :-) I hope you are enjoying your reading and have a great week!
Your books look so good. I hope you enjoy them and have a great week!
Thanks, Literary Feline. It's one of the things they often remember. Glad to have our daughter home. Cats do love to "help." Thanks for visiting.
Thanks, Yvonne. You too!
My grandmother gets the plants that I almost kill :-) She's brought back some sort of vine and a poinsettia. She has such a green thumb, I don't think she could kill a plant if she tried. She literally forgot about a Christmas cactus in a brown paper bag on her enclosed but unheated back porch for months if not a year and it bloomed happily when she brought it back out into the light!
That's amazing, Jen. I could kill a plant by looking at it. LOL! Thanks for visiting.
