Sunday Post--May 12

The Sunday Post is a meme hosted by Kimba the Caffeinated Book Reviewer. This is where I take a look at my last week and look ahead to what I might be doing next week.

I enjoy taking the time to review my last week...see just what I did...and then decide what I hope to do next week.

Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers out there!

Last Week


Around the House
We made a day trip to Chesapeake Bay last weekend. This was the southern Maryland part of the western beach portion of the Chesapeake Bay. We are still exploring southern Maryland and all the towns around here. We've discovered there are lots of roads throughout the area! We found a great used bookstore on our way to the Bay. My husband and I enjoy spending time browsing in used bookstores especially if they have some old books. We spent an enjoyable couple hours and bought a box load of books when we left!

Next Week


Around the house
Our oldest daughter is coming to visit this next weekend. She's getting out of the Army at the end of the month so she's bringing some of her things to store with us as she decides what to do next and where she's going to live...get a job or go back to school. She's planning to take time off this summer which is good since she's been going nonstop for the last eight years after she finished school.

Blog posts planned

  1. Sounds like you had a wonderful week! If you ever head down toward Fredericksburg, VA, please let me know. Maybe we can meet for lunch or something!

    Nice haul... I picked up Suddenly Royal, too. Can't wait to read it -- but I've got so many ARCs to get through, who knows when I'll get to it!
