So heyyyyyy....
I feel like it's been so long that I don't even know where to begin lol
Whenever I'm gone this long I need some kind of schedule or motivation to get me jump started. So - I don't really have much to say today but if I right down and post my plan I might do it. (????)
The plan is a review on Monday's (provided I read 😜 anything - but I have two! reviews I want to write), TMST on Tuesday, and maybe go back to doing a Friday 5 on Friday.
That doesn't seem too stressful or pinned down to one topic.
In theory lol
I do want to share one really great thing that happened back in October that I wanted to post about but it fell through the cracks. It's bookish and just too cute not to share!
I participated in La La in the Library's Dog Days of Summer reading challenge and won her giveaway for a custom bookmark made by In Line with Annemieke (her Etsy shop link). I asked for something Halloween-ish/spooky with the dogs. I had no idea if that was possible and said alternatively it could be anything spooky. She's in the Netherlands so I also had no idea when it would even get here.
But it came very soon after in gorgeous packaging with lots of little extras and LOOK AT THAT BOOKMARK OF MY BABIES!!!
I was just so happy with it and thank you so much to La La for hosting the challenge and giveaway!
That bookmark is so cute.
ReplyDeleteIt's the best!
DeleteYou have a schedule?!? HOW DARE YOU?!? I mean...what...how...
ReplyDelete🤣🤣🤣
Are you going to review What We Buried?
I WANT to write reviews, and at the same time, I'm stuck. And perpetually tired. I want to read for fun, but I won't give myself permission before I've written my last (for now) NG/EW reviews...so I get angry with myself...it's a circle.
That bookmark is SO SO cute!
Oh, and I forgot...the banner is lovely and hilarious. Figment 🤣.
DeleteI will go off the schedule after one week I'm sure. As long as it gets me moving lol
DeleteI am going to review that one!!! I wrote a review for Monday (different book) but WWB will probably be the 13th.
I haven't had review books in so long that I've had zero pressure but I did just take on a few so we'll see.
Thank you :-)) I always think of you when I do a seasonal one. You're the only who ever asks for it so it's for you! ha
😂🥰
DeleteI love that bookmark! What is it made out of?
ReplyDeletePaper!
DeleteI am so happy you loved your bookmark! 🤗
ReplyDeleteI also do better with blogging when I have a couple features that have a specific posting schedules. 📆
I won't stick with it (I hate schedules) lol but it always helps jump start me when I have too much or too little to say after a long break.
DeleteI also love bah humbug Figgy. 😁
ReplyDeleteIt's very on brand lol
DeleteHey is this a new blog? KIDDING.
ReplyDeleteLaLa and Annemieke are both awesome. :)
Hope you have a great weekend! Are you watching One Of Us Is Lying? It's on Peacock channel don't know if you have that but if you watch it we need to discuss ha ha!
Who am I? Why am I here? lol
DeleteI have not watched that yet but I will try and do a buddy watch with my friend! I think I left a comment for you to try We Are Lady Parts on Peacock. It's a fun show. Even though it has a strange name lol
Did you watch Hellbound on Netflix yet? It's such an interesting concept but weird, weird show lol
Ooh you probably did! I'm shit at replying lately but I will check those out!!!
DeleteI have been shit at commenting so I probably thought it but didn't actually type it lol
DeleteNo you did! I found it lol. I checked those out and I have PEacock until the 22nd (the Plus one) so I have time to watch a few shows...
DeleteHa thanks greg <3
DeleteThanks, Greg. 😎
DeleteOMG that bookmark is adorable!
ReplyDeleteIt's nice to hear from you on your blog - I still love seeing you on other social media sites. I think you have a good plan for the future!
Isn't it?!! SO perfect!
DeleteI'm lazy about blogging but I also miss it when I go to long. Sometimes I just need a jumpstart.
Didn't you just post last week? Omg see, I am so used to it that I still feel I just read a post by you. But I am glad you finally did :D
ReplyDeleteI posted a few weeks ago but you just commented last week lol We are both off our game.
DeleteRemember when you were always the first commenter?
It is a constant battle for me between planning out posts and procrastinating haha. Whichever way you choose, I'm always happy to see a post from you!
ReplyDeleteI guess I'm falling under the I post whenever I post lol
DeleteFirst the adorable header up there, and then that bookmark. I totally OOOOHHHed out loud. I like routine, so blogging keeps me moving. It's a healthy outlet for me.
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteIt used to be that for me but now it's either something that burns me out or the thing that keeps me going. It's weird lol
Yeay I'm so happy you liked it. :D
ReplyDeleteIt made me SO happy!
DeleteAw, that bookmark is adorable. I LOVE IT!
ReplyDeleteI have no set schedule for my posts except for a few posts in the month. LOL I do have various things I need to write and get scheduled though, so we'll see how it goes.

That's my usual speed but I'm not even up for that lately lol
DeleteLove the gif. :) And the bookmark. My blogging has been super slow the past month or so. Work is draining me and I am left with zero energy/desire to blog. I manage maybe a post a week. And I'm fine with that. Eventually this will pass and I'll be at it again.
ReplyDeleteYes! That's how I feel about it now. It would be great if I could read a little more but I'm doing other things I enjoy more right now and that's fine!
DeleteThe over working is a less fun reason though.
