Feeling

I’m feeling excited because I’m FINALLY done with my blog redesign that I started back in September. I’ve had most of it done for a while. I just needed to update my images to match and I had a lot of them to do. I’m feeling really happy with how it all looks.

Blogging

I had a really good blogging week. I still have a couple of year end posts scheduled to drop this coming week. Here’s what I posted this week:

Reading

I started reading THE HUNDREDTH QUEEN by Emily R King. I’m also still listening to the ECLIPSE audiobook and I’m about halfway through now.

Listening

I’ve been listening to a few new-to-me K-pop songs that my friend Suey (It’s All About Books) introduced me to. My favorite’s “ILLELLA” by Mamamoo.

Watching

Corey and I are still making progress with DEXTER. We made it through season 3 and started season 4. I’m still enjoying it a lot. It’s getting even more compelling than it already was.

Loving

I love getting ready for school. I’m anticipating the first day of classes, which is next Monday (January 9). I have all my books ordered. I just need to wait for them to ship. My university doesn’t have a physical bookstore anymore so all book buying’s done online. It’s really convenient AND you have to do it ahead of time so everything arrives by the start of the new semester.

Wanting

I want to wish everyone a happy new year! I hope 2023 is a great year for us all!

Needing

I need to contact my doctor again. Friday morning was my last dose of steroids and my hives are already back.

How was your week? Anything exciting happen?

    Congratulations on completing your blog redesign. Your blog looks lovely.

    I hope school will be delightful for you this year.

    And to celebrate the new year…
    Here’s a bit from a lovely old (1850!) poem:

    “Ring out the old, ring in the new,
    Ring, happy bells, across the snow:
    The year is going, let him go;
    Ring out the false, ring in the true…

    Ring out a slowly dying cause,
    And ancient forms of party strife;
    Ring in the nobler modes of life,
    With sweeter manners, purer laws…

    Ring out false pride in place and blood,
    The civic slander and the spite;
    Ring in the love of truth and right,
    Ring in the common love of good.”

    And a toast: Here’s to a year of wonderful reads and small joys!

    Congratulations on your blog re-design; I wouldn’t have a clue how to do such a thing. I’m glad that things are going well minus the hives. Argghhh! Happy New Year, Jenni!

      Thanks, Margaret! 😀 I’ve been building websites since 1997 so I’ve had a lot of practice. Most people hire someone who can do it for them, though. I’m not sure how to manipulate LiveJournal as I’ve never used it.

    I hope you feel better soon. I might need to put In a Holidaze on my TBR. Or have I already? I can’t remember. Lol. I know I’ve seen several people mention it. Have a great week and a Happy New Year! 🙂
