HAPPY MONDAY!!! Let’s get this day started with some early bird book releases including that one there to the left by Melanie Harlow (it sounds like SO MUCH FUN!!). Keep checking back as this list will grow. π
Tomorrow I’m going to be extremely busy, blog-wise as I find us deals, as well as our Big Tuesday New Release list (and me some deals too) ’cause…
THREE THINGS:
1.) Prime Day is almost here (starts tomorrow) and I need some stuff! First and foremost I need a new Roomba (mine is the first generation so it’s tired and quite a few years old now). Or maybe I’ll just keep using my old Roomba, and get one of those cordless upright stick vacuums instead. Anyone have one? What model? What do you think of it? I can’t wait to see what’s on sale!! New house and I need to restock, since I got rid of so much of my stuff when I was packing.
2.) Waiting on my delivery of a stand up freezer, an entertainment center (it’s SOOOO gorgeous, and handmade and solid wood – it will be here tomorrow, so we can finally set up our TV and fire stick on it – AND!! I don’t have to build it). Also waiting on two bookshelves, that of course, we have to build. πΒ I can finally unpack my preciouses. π
3.) We set up all of our tiny pathway/landscaping solar lights and it is SO pretty. Soon I’ll take pics of everything and show you what I got.
P.S. In the meantime, TONS of Prime Video Channel deals today!! I already have Paramount+ & Discovery+ but I don’t have Showtime, so it shall be mine!! π JUST GOT IT!! Now I shall watch that creepy horror? (is it horror?) movie “Lamb” while I build our list today. YAY ME!! π
P.P.S. In case you missed it on Friday (I know so many went to Book Bonanza), our Friday Finds list was incredible and HUGE. 40 books and 10 audiobooks!! —> Friday Finds & Reader Recommendations β 07-08-2022

We came home a winner!!! My sons team finally got a tournament win this past weekend and this mom is TIRED!!! They played in a 111 heat indexβ¦ thatβs some love of the game right there!!! Now to pack and head to Tomball TX for the next one! I will be back on my audible kick!! We have a 2 day break to relax and replenishβ¦.
WOOWOWW! YAYYYY!! And omg to have to play sports or even function in that heat!! CRAZY!!
Well I’m happy to hear the news, and I’m glad nobody passed out. π
It was HOT π₯΅ BUT IT WAS FUN TO WATCH THEM COME FROM BEHIND AND HAVE TO PLAY 3 games to win!
1. So far I’ve bought 5 Echo Dots, 2 TVs, and a firestick for Prime Day, and because Target is having a simultaneous sale, I got 8 towels from there. Not sure if I mentioned it on here, but we’re turning our house into an airbnb and I need all the things. Still looking for a microwave and 6 ceiling fans!
2. I’m in the process of “de-personalizing” rooms, boxing up our treasures (while you’re unboxing lol), and figuring out what can stay out and what I need to put up. I’ve already packed up my signed books, but my brain is fried trying to decide what to do with everything else. I want to leave them out for guest access, but which ones? I mean, is it my fault if your tween gets ahold of American Queen? ππ¬ And my family has collected books for generations so I have some that could be offensive, depending on your religious and/or political views. It doesn’t even matter what you believe or which way you lean; I have something to offend everyone! I swore I’d never censor books, yet here I am censoring my own library.
3. My husband just came in here demanding Mexican food so I guess I’ll take advantage and make my 3rd Goodwill run in a week. There’s just sooooo much stufffff!
Wow! That is a huge lifestyle change! I can’t even imagine going through a decluttering. My kitchen definitely needs decorate ring with the purchase a few weeks ago of an air fryer! Hoping for a Kindle Unlimited deal as mine runs out in December.
I’m dreading the kitchen. May save that for last!
Mine runs out this month so I’m hoping for one too.
How does that work R? Did you move or do you just rent out for when your out of town?
We just got a little travel trailer and we’re going to mostly live in that while our place is occupied. At first we’ll stay close, just in case, but when we’re more comfortable, we’ll travel. We’ll be here when it isn’t rented. The idea is to pay the house off and fund our travel habit for a few years!
Wow! Thatβs cool! Hope it all works out for yβall! I would love to be able to travel with my husband. But right now traveling with my 15 yr old son for his baseball. But love watching him play!
Thanks so much! I think it will be a true test of our marriage! π€£ππ¬
That’s great to get to spend that kind of time with your son at that age! My daughter gave me a wide berth during her teen years! π
π³π€£π€£ yeahβ¦ sometimes going to town with my husband drives me crazy! π€£π€£π€£π€£
That’s a really cool idea!!
OH MY GOODNESS I know The whole “so much stuff” feeling. I donated so much of my stuff, it’s crazy. So many Goodwill runs, 3 Habitat for Humanity huge truck pickups (for all the furniture – the only thing I kept was my bedroom set – handmade by the amish and cost me a fortune and I love it).
Also LOL on censoring your own stuff. There is an adorable library here at a 55 and older community, and I asked if they wanted a bunch of my books – not my signed ones – (and I mostly read ebooks anyway) and they were excited.
I warned them… much steam!! LOL! They were like BRING IT!
I feel like they don’t know what they’re asking for. π But if they do a book club for Sierra Simone, you and I are going to have to crash it!
It would be so fun to crash anything with you, R!!! LOL!!!
“…. I warned themβ¦ much steam!! LOL! They were like BRING IT!”
Ha ha ha. I love that.
