We have been helping our daughter move since Thursday and I look like someone took a baseball bat to my legs and inner arms! Does anyone else bruise easily? I have six reviews to write today and need to get them done so I am ready for the Fraterfest RAT. Clayton is doing better tummy wise and his cough is finally loosening. Yesterday my husband took him to Monster Jam, and he had a blast. Elbow hugs! Stay Caffeinated.

Glad Clayton is doing better!
I don’t bruise easily at all but when I bruise I BRUISE. It’s something to see, lol. After moving everything for my new flooring this summer (then putting it back again) I looked like I’d survived a RTA or fall from a great height!
I hope your daughter settles into her new home quickly. 🙂
Katherine
So glad Clayton’s tummy issues are getting better and that he had fun at monster jam. I don’t bruise easily but I get sore and worn out easily so I don’t envy you helping your daughter move. I hope you are able to relax this week!
Victoria A Hamel
Moving is a real workout! Glad Clayton is feeling better. I hope you got all your reviews written! Have a great week!
Carla
Ouch, I am lucky I don’t bruise too easily, but I know people who do. I hope the moving is almost finished. Glad to hear Clayton is feeling better. I hope you enjoy Needless Street, Kimberly. I thought the audiobook was very well done. Have a great week.
Shelleyrae @ Book’d Out
Ugh moving is such a chore. Some arnica might help with the bruising.
Wishing you a great reading week
Melliane
Many intriguing things to read. Take care and rest well.
MarthaE
I bruise up a bit but my hubby is really getting to the point of many bruises. Older, thinner skin.
I hope Clayton is fully well soon.
I’m looking forward to Fraterfest too.
Have a good week and enjoy some spooky reading!
Mary Kirkland
My mom used to bruise easily. Glad to her the little guy is feeling better.
Melanie
I hate moving. I keep joking that if I move out of our current house, I’ll just burn it down and buy all new stuff. Glad Clayton is feeling better. Hope your bruises heal quickly.
Ethan
I don’t bruise easily, but I do constantly find little cuts on my hands and arms with no recollection of where they came from. After all the moving, you’re going to need a nice long break!
Wendy Williams
I’m so glad Clayton is feeling better. I feel your pain about moving, we moved our son last week and it was painful! Happy Reading
Berls
Yes, I bruise so easily. I turn up. With bruises all the time that I don’t know where they came from. Good luck finishing up the move… And all those reviews. I have 3 to write right now ?
Have a great week!
Lover of Romance
oh I definitely know the feeling when you are behind on reviews….hope the writing goes smoothly and efficiently and I love seeing that Rebecca Zanetti book on your shelf.
Anne - Books of My Heart
I hear you on the busy, busy. I also bruise and have no idea how I got them usually. I’m glad Clayton’s better. I hate the start of moving but I love getting everything organized where it goes after you are in the new place. I’m interested to see it looks like a new Zanetti series. I didn’t like her Anna Albertini one. Have a great week!
Lisa Mandina
Glad Clayton is feeling better! I don’t bruise really easily, but I do end up with bruises and have no idea how I got them sometimes! Have a great week!
Rachel
So happy to hear Clayton is feeling better! Ack, six reviews?! I don’t envy you! Good luck! Have a lovely week, Kimberly.
Jan @ Notes from a Readerholic
I’m glad that Clayton is feeling better and was able to get out. I’m sorry you’re so bruised from helping your daughter move. I get bruises easily, but not that easily! I hope they go away soon.
Good luck getting your reviews done and I hope you have a good week.
Lori Caswell
So glad Clayton is feeling better. Sad you are all bruised up, I hope they heal up quick.
Have a great week.
bookworm
Glad he’s feeling better. I bruise easy too, mainly my legs for some reason. Yay for Fraterfest. Happy reading this week.
Sophie
I am glad to know that Clayton is finally feeling better! And I hope that next week all your bruises will have disappeared. I don’t bruise easily, lucky me! Have a great week Kimberly.
sjhigbee
Annddd – I’m glad to hear that Clayton is recovering. Arnica is fabulous for those bruises – and in the meantime, I hope you can take some time out from your busy schedule to read some good books, Kimberly:).
sjhigbee
Urg! Carrying boxes… lugging furniture items… oh yes – I can relate, as I also bruise easily. The worst time I moved my daughter was when she lived five floors up and there was no lift – and it was high summer!
Sophia Rose
Funny, you mention the bruises. I was just admiring one on my leg and wondering how I got it. I bruise easily, too. Glad Clayton is feeling better and able to go out for a good time with grandpa. Cheering you on for your review writing fest. 🙂
That new Rebecca Zanetti looks good.
Have a good week, Kimberly!
S. J. Pajonas
Yeah, I bruise easily and I’m always looking at my bruises and wondering where they came from!
Mareli @ Elza Reads
Hi Kimberly! First of all – my new blog is up and kind of running! Still need to do a lot, but I am getting there!!! THANK YOU for the inspiration and all the help… I might have to call on you again. I do still get stuck with the UBB a bit.
Oh yes, I bruise terribly easy as well. But I am on chronic blood thinners, so it does make it worse.
I so desperately want to read The Last House on Needless street. Jealous here!!
I will DEFINITELY join Fraterfest and will have my linkup ready within the next day or two.
Have a good week ahead!
A Voracious Reader
I go around doing my things then later when I shower find bruises. I never remember what it was exactly I did. Unless it really hurts at the time I did it. lol {{{posivibes}}} for Clayton.
Jinjer
Helping someone move…not fun but much appreciated by the person moving. Hope it’s all behind you now.
Great news about Clayton! Sounds like he’s on the mend and enjoying life again.
Jessica @ a GREAT read
Glad to hear Clayton is feeling better! I bruise very easily too. If I knock a knee or elbow into a table I’ll have a big ugly bruise there an hour later.
Nice new reads! These are all new to me ones but I hope you enjoy them all!
Here’s my StS
Have a GREAT day!

Jen at Introverted Reader
I bruise easily too. It’s so frustrating to have a decently-sized bruise and not remember what I did!
Good luck with the move! I’m so glad Clayton is feeling better!
Lola
Moving is a pain, I hope it all goes smoothly. Sorry to hear about your arms and leg bruising. That’s good new to hear Clayton is doing better. I hope you’ll have a great week.
Dianthaa
Good luck writing your review, hope you enjoy the Last House on Needless Street, heard lots of great stuff about it.
Emily
Enjoyed reading your post. Moving isn’t easy and I have only done it once in my life! Good luck with your reviews!
Tessa
I bruise easily but I have to take blood thinners for a clotting issue – so that’s why. But, I hope yours heal quickly. I definitely know how sore they can be. Enjoy The Last House on Needless Street. It’s one uber-wild ride. Have a great week ❤️
Deb Nance at Readerbuzz
I bruise easily, too. But so does my dad and he’s a very healthy ninety-four!
SJ
Glad to hear he’s feeling better and had fun at Monster Jam. Good luck with the reviews. Hope you have a good week. I’m looking forward to Fraterfest RAT, have my books lined up and everything!!
Juli @ A Universe in Words
One of my housemates is currently moving out and yes, bruises abound! Good luck with Fraterfest and have a lovely rest of your weekend!
Vi @Inkvotary
Glad that Clayton is feeling much better. Have a great new week and good luck with writing your reviews. Happy reading.
Ailyn Koay
lovely covers! no, unless someone did hit you with the furniture equivalent of a baseball bat. probably should rule out blood disorders? i know some people are quite prone to bruising though
Louise Hallett
Another “bruiser” here. In fact only last week I jokingly asked my if he had been pinching me in my sleep because I had 7 bruises but in really odd places. One was on my shoulder, another near my wrist – I don’t even notice the ones on my legs as there is always at least one per limb.
Lorna
If I had 6 reviews to write in one day I probably would just quit. I can’t imagine. That’s a lot of writing and correcting etc. I bruise easy and have all my life. I tend to forget how I get them. Right now I have one that starts at the tip of my foot and goes to the bottom of my foot. Not big but I can’t remember doing anything to my foot! Senior moments are so fun. Not.
vvb
Hope the legs and arms are back to normal this week. Happy reading.
Maureen @ Maureen’s Books
Wow.. that is busy! Good luck with the reviews. Have a great week and happy reading.
Laurel-Rain Snow
Oh, wow, I also easily bruise. When I moved, I had several afterwards and had no memory of how they happened!
I’m glad Clayton is feeling better.
Enjoy your books and your week!
Yvonne @ Socrates Book Reviews
I’m so happy to hear that Clayton is feeling better. Yuck…I hate moving.
I hope you are able to find time to relax and have a great week!
Greg
Glad Clayton is doing better. And moving- fun times huh? It gets harder as we get older I think. 🙂
Have fun with Frater and hope you have a great week. 🙂
