Clayton had his first T-ball game Saturday and I am still grinning. He did great and looked stinkin’ adorable in his shirt and helmet. Today we get our second Peizer COVID-19 vaccine. We are on vacation this week and we’re going to the Ozarks in Missouri for a few days. The rest of it will be a staycation because of my bum leg. In May I read/listened to 15 books. I am at 93 of 200 for my Goodreads challenge and 61/100+ for the Audiobook Challenge. Elbow hugs! Stay Caffeinated.

Aww. That’s such a cute age! Are you going to Branson? I always wanted to go when I lived in Ky and it was closer. I hope your leg is healing well. Take care.
Kimberly
That is 2 hours south of the Lakes of the Ozarks. We are at Maragaritaville.
Tyler H. Jolley
How’d did you fare after your shot? I had my first one yesterday. I was nervous but all is good.
Kimberly
Chills and fever lasted 24 hours, but we had Covid at the end of March.
Carole @ Carole's Random Life
Enjoy your vacation! Kids playing t-ball are just about the cutest thing ever 🙂 Enjoy all of your new books. I thought that Kill All Your Darlings was very well done.
Nise' (Under the Boardwalk)
I hope your leg does not give you too much trouble while you are on vacay!
Katherine
I bet the baseball game was adorable! How fun! Glad you were able to get your 2nd vaccine and yay for vacation! Hope you are able to get some rest and recharge. Have a great week!
MathaE
Sounds like your reading goals are on target.
Looks like you have some nice small town romances coming up. Christmas in the summer – that’s an idea I might like.
Hope you enjoy your visit in the Ozarks and your staycation as your leg heals. Be careful and get rest for it.
Happy Reading!
Mary Kirkland
I hope you have a good time even with the bum leg.
Rachel
The Ozarks sound like a wonderful place to visit. Hope your leg feels better, Kimberly! 🙂
M. Ravenel
The Witch Christmas book looks like a fun, cozy read! I guess we are going to start seeing more Christmas books popping up now for the summer. I hope you and your family are feeling better now after those endless weeks of sickness!
Wendy Williams
We Witch You a Merry Christmas sounds cute! And the 2 Lori Foster books look interesting too. Looking forward to your reviews on those.
Lark @ The Bookwyrm's Hoard
Hurray for your second shot, and enjoy your vacation/staycation! Clayton is playing T-Ball already?! Seems only yesterday he was as small as Hazel is now.
Ethan
Woohoo on getting your second shot and getting some vacation time! We had a planned trip this week that we had to cancel due to one of the people we were planning to stay with getting COVID. They’re doing okay, but I was bummed that we had to stay home. At least we had no excuse to not clean the house this weekend haha.
Sophie
Kimberly I really hope that you won’t have the same reaction to your pfizer second shot as I had to my Moderna second shot this week! Especially as you have a vacation planned! Anyway, enjoy your vacation!
sherry fundin
hope you enjoy your vacation and congrats on the second shot and your reading challenges

Ooh, have fun in the Ozarks. Are you going to Branson or Lake of the Ozarks? I enjoyed Branson but am kind of ready for my nephew to be a little older. Three years old is fun, but still so easy with tripping and needing so much extra attention. In the next couple years he’ll be more fun I think. Looks like you are doing well on your challenges for reading too. Have a great week!
Anne - Books of My Heart
I’m so glad you are getting your second vaccine and will be able to take a vacation break. Have fun and get some rest!

Enjoy your vacation!

Yay for your second vaccine!!
I’ve been eyeballing Goblin – it looks good!
Berls
Aww I bet the tball game was too cute! How old is Clayton now? It doesn’t seem like he should be old enough for t ball! I can’t wait for Dante to be into stuff like that ?
I hope you enjoy your vacation and that your leg is improving! Yay for your second dose!!!
Gayathri
I hope you read as many as books as you want this week. And yay on T-ball!
Lola
That’s great you’re getting your second vaccine. I hope you have a great vacation!

Yay for Clayton!!
Anna got her 2nd shot yesterday and Trip and I go tomorrow for our 1st. We’re slowly getting there!
Have fun on your vacation and staycation!
Jessica @ a GREAT read
Oh nice! Not sure what the weather towards the Ozarks will be doing but I know up by me in St. Louis we’re looking at rain all week, so I hope it doesn’t come to you guys down there while you visit!
Nice new reads! Those are all new to me ones but I hope you enjoy them all!
Here’s my StS
Have a GREAT day!
