First, I am improving. The fever is gone, cough has loosened and aside from a lot of congestion and fatigue, I am out of the woods. I hit my Goodreads Challenge and closed at 203/200. For my Audiobook Challenge 124/125 Not too shabby. We rang in the New Year at home. The first day of January brought snow and with it freezing temperatures with lows in the -teens and highs of 7. Brrrr. I still can’t believe Betty White is gone. Stay warm and Happy New Year! Elbow hugs! Stay Caffeinated.

    Happy New Year and so glad you’re feeling better! It decided to become winter here and I am decidely not happy about it. Luckily it should warm up a little soon I’m not designed for cold weather! I was so sad to hear about Betty White. The world definitely lost a bit of its shine with her gone. I hope you have a wonderful week.

  3. Tyler H. Jolley

    Happy New Year, Kimba! I was off offline for most of December so I’m out of the loop. Did you get covid again? I’m so sorry you were sick, but it sounds like you’re on the upswing. Feel better!

  4. Lover of Romance

    I am so happy that you are feeling better, so heartbreaking about Betty. Spending New Year at home is so relaxing and I always enjoy it more.

  6. MarthaE

    I am very glad that you are feeling better as you start the new year. Brrrrr is right. – not for me.
    Surprised you have no new books – I always fill up before the new year so the books can count as TBRs. 🙂
    I do see you are noting some challenges. I am working up mine this week.
    Have a wonderful week and Happy Reading!

    Glad you’re feeling a bit better. We’ve got the brr temps too, so I’ve been reading and not taking down Christmas decorations. LOL

    Have a good week, Kimberly!

  13. A Voracious Reader

    I’m glad you are improving. {{{posivibes}}} to get you back to normal. We’ve been in the 70s (wtf), but it’s supposed to drop tonight and the rain we’ve been getting may turn to snow and/or freeze what’s wet. Oh. Yay.

  17. Rachel

    Glad to hear you’re feeling better! My husband and I caught a nasty bug from our granddaughter and feel horrible today. Have a great week, Kimberly!

    I am glad your health is improving Kimberly! Also your goals were impressive!! Let’s hope that next week will be much better for you!

  22. Lori Caswell

    Glad you are feeling better and congratulations on your challenges. I too am devastated about the passing of Betty White. She will be buried here in Wisconsin next to her husband and I am going to have to make a trip to her grave in the Spring. She was a great lady.

  29. Jessica @ a GREAT read

    Glad to hear you’re feeling better! Hope you continue to get well again! It is so tragic about Betty, we were watching her SNL episode last night. I had really hoped she’d be celebrating her big 1-0-0!

    Yay for not adding to your TBR pile! I was not so good in that area this week! Lol.

    Here’s my StS

    Have a GREAT day!

    I know, I also cannot believe Betty White is gone. I saw a tweet where someone said that in a world so incredibly divided, we all seem to agree that we love Betty White. So true.

    Glad to hear you’re feeling better, hope this week brings a full recovery! And great job with your reading goals!

    So glad to hear that your fever is gone. Hope you are on the road to recovery.

    It was so hot yesterday, and then I woke up to temps that had dropped forty degrees. Sigh.

    Happy New Year! Congratulations on all your reading achievements! I managed 96 books this year which has been the most I have ever read!

    Very happy to hear you are improving and out of the woods. I give congrats to GR Challenge achievement. You did wonderful on the audiobook challenge. Happy to the safe bringing in of the new year. I wants some freezing weather and snow. Send it over to the northeast of US, please and thank you. I still am having a bit of trouble with Betty being gone. She was the girl all day long. You could always get a smile when watching her. She will be missed..

  42. Mareli @ Elza Reads

    Glad to hear you are better. Please take care of yourself…. So sad about Betty White’s passing yes. She was a real ray of sunshine. We need more celebrities like that.

    Have a wonderful new year Kimberly!

    Betty White really hit hard, just as I thought we were safe from 2021 it came back one last time with a gut punch! I’m glad to hear you’re feeling better slowly but surely! I was very proud of my 102 books this year, but now I am in utter awe of your reading and listening skills! I hope you have a lovely upcoming week and thanks for hosting 🙂

    Happy New Year Kimba!!! Hope you had a nice one and glad to hear that you are feeling better.

    Snow here too. Stay warm!!!

  47. Patricia in New Mexico

    I’m so glad you’re feeling better! Brrr! And here I am in the upper 40’s thinking it’s freezing! Yes, I was sad to hear about Betty White. Take good care and Happy New Year!

  49. Kelly Lyn @ Lifestyle of Me

    Enjoy the snow for me. South Carolina had temps in the 80’s today. Not wintery at all. I told my husband that if my pool was still full of water, I would have jumped in it…lol. I cried a lot about Betty White yesterday and today reading interviews and Robert Redfords post to her. 🙁

  55. Laurel-Rain Snow

    Sounds like a great New Year’s Eve. Mine was quiet, with movie watching and reading.

    I can’t believe about Betty White either! I was so sure she would make it to 100.

    Have a great week.
