Thank you to
Susannah Conway , for her brilliant idea of
The August Break - which I joined in briefly for until even that became more than my slow, sleep deprived brain could handle.
We've been a busy household packing and planning, drinking mad amounts of coffee, learning to eat food, learning to sit all by oneself, getting haircuts, and of course, NOT sleeping. Forgive me, but in 3 weeks time my blogging will, once again, become somewhat here and there. I am at the mercy of the internet cafe as of September 24th, while our little family jets off until mid-january. On the up-side, being that we'll be wandering about in new, unfamiliar territory, things may get a little more interesting around here...
This week I am joining Ginny over at
Small Things in sharing what's on the hook, and what's being read.
There. Now you know, I have a not-so-secret love for adolescent reads. Oh yes, that means Narnia, Harry Potter, The Airborne series, and um hmmn, even a little bit of team Edward. Mockingjay is the third and final book in the
Hunger Games series. I've knocked these books back pretty quickly for someone who has not had the capacity to read ANYTHING outside of a blog post, or very brief magazine article since 2 months into her second pregnancy.
The blanket is for my youngest son. I started knitting it maybe 3 days before his birth, took it all out about a month ago, and started crocheting it. I don't know why, I just did. I really hoped it would be finished before we left, but now I just hope it's finished before he's 10 (he is currently at the 6 month mark). :)
