This was a long, hard week. Right now I am focused on my health and looking towards the future. I have lost sixty-two pounds and was shocked when I began putting winter clothes on. Nothing fits, it all hangs. I have not read as much as I would like to, but I’ve binge watching tv series I enjoy. I visited blogs which is always a joy and spent time with my grandchildren. Stay Caffeinated.

Lark @ The Bookwyrm's Hoard
This has indeed been a hard week. But that’s wonderful that you have been able to lose weight and work on getting healthier! (I hope that the weight loss was voluntary, and not the result of an illness.)
I’m just finishing up The Teller of Small Tales, and it’s a delight. I hope you enjoy it!
Sophie
Sixty two pounds? OMG Kimberly I hope it was planned and not due to illnesses! Take care of you.

Yay for the weight loss! That’s awesome! I need to check out the John Scalzi audiobook. Hope you have a good week!
Carla
Congratulations on your weight loss (and focusing on your health)!
I think everyone goes through reading ebbs and flows. I’ve not read that much this week either.
Anne - Books of My Heart
It’s a long hard road ahead. Congrats on the weight loss. I’ve been carrying extra pounds since 2020. Looking to your health is a good plan.

I hope the weight loss was intentional. I thought not eating after I kicked my husband out would help me lose weight but it didn’t. I guess I need to look into something else. I think I may take my rage over the election and turn it to kickboxing or something. lol I hope you have a great week!
Kimberly
Yes, the Covid 20 and my health pushed me to drop the weight. With my chronic illnesses, I am not nearly as active as I once was and too much weight settled in… I am now back to almost what I was pre-children and feel better for it. My knees are thanking me.
Jamie @ The Fantasy Princess
Hope you have a better week! Congrats on your weight loss. I want to get more reading done too.
Jodie
I certainly hope that the weight loss was intentional. If so, that’s wonderful! I love the cover for “The Teller of Small Fortunes”. I hope you have a lovely week ahead.
Jessica @ a GREAT read
Wow! Congrats on the weight loss! That’s amazing!
Nice new reads! These are all new to me ones but I hope you enjoy them all!

Yes, a very hard week. I am looking for hope, and educating myself through reading best I can. The future is not written.

Enjoy your grandchildren 😊
Lola
Sorry to hear it was a long and hard week. That sounds like a good idea to focus on your health and I hope your health improves. Some weeks just are better for watching things than reading. Thanks for mentioning The Teller of Small Fortunes a few weeks ago, it caught my eye and I bought a copy when it released and am currently reading it. I hope you have a good week!
Gail Is This Mutton
Wow what an amazing weight loss. You’ll have fun replacing your winter wardrobe! Have a good week

Congratulations on your weight loss! What an accomplishment! I’ve been focusing on exercise on diet lately, too, and I feel really good about it. Have a wonderful week, Kimberly!
Lori
It was a rough week and I know it’s gong to get worse. Self care, doing things you enjoy is key now.. I have avoided the news, I am scared about everything that is coming and I don’t need them droning on about it.
Take care of yourself.
Laurel-Rain Snow
I hope you feel better and have smoother weeks ahead. Enjoy your grandchildren and your books.
Taylor @ Taylor Fenner’s Bookish World
I’m focusing on self-care and mental/physical health after this last week as well. 62 pounds, wow! I’m sitting at about 40 pounds lost since the beginning of April and I have about 10 more I want to lose before the end of the year. Take care of yourself and have a great week!
Yvonne @ Socrates Book Reviews
I hope you are feeling well. I’ve been doing a lot of binge watching too. Hope you have a great week!
