The Sunday Post is hosted by Kimberly @ Caffeinated reviewer book blog, and is a post to recap my bookish and non-bookish things from the last week. I'm also linking up to The Sunday Salon hosted by Deb Nance @Readerbuzz.
Happy Sunday!
It's been a warm week here with temps in the 80s and 90s. Summer is definitely here! Yesterday my husband and I celebrated our anniversary, thirty-nine years! We went to dinner at a a historic hotel in Nevada City (in California) and had nice evening out.
Other than that nothing too exciting here, just the same getting out for walks and runs, early because of the heat. Keeping the garden in shape with deadheading and weeding and work. Work has been unusually busy which is surprising because the summers are usually slower.
We're getting ready to head to Montana again this week. This time we'll be flying.

How was your week?
Such beautiful flowers! You're a bit cooler and looks like you are getting some rain. Montana should be cooler I'd think being north but maybe at home is higher elevation. Have a safe trip!

Happy anniversary! I'm glad you will get to go back to Montana and that this time you're flying. Moss'd in Space is a book I'm looking forward to reading.
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary! That's an amazing time you've been together.
ReplyDeleteHappy 39th anniversary! 🎉 It sounds like you celebrated in such a lovely way. I hope you have a wonderful trip to Montana, and here’s hoping work slows down a bit so you can enjoy the rest of your summer. Happy reading! 📚🤍
ReplyDeleteYou've been together for 39 years? Talk about a milestone! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteThe temps have been crazy here, too. I literally can't function in the heat. It's like hibernating in the wrong season - I spend my days in front of a fan and read/blog. For three months every year. Can't muster the energy for anything else. I don't know how you find the strength to work in the garden...
You cats sure love lying down on your unfinished puzzles 😂.
"Everything Was Beautiful and Nothing Hurt" is a catchy title - I must look the book up!
Yay! Happy Anniversary!
ReplyDeleteI think Moss'd in Space looks good. I will be looking forward to hearing your thoughts!
Happy Anniversary! Love seeing you've had a lasting marriage and still sound like best buds with your projects and trips together. Nevada City had some lovely restaurants and shops even when I was still living out there. Neat puzzle and gorgeous garden flowers in bloom.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely week in Montana, Rachel!
