Happy Monday, dear ones. I’ve really been trying to read a lot lately – some of it is related to my new Work In Progress, some of it is because I am finally getting some of my “hold” books in from the library. (No joke, I waited about a year for V.E. Schwab’s Addie LaRue book.) My girlfriends and I signed up for a triathlon in August and I am seriously questioning my sanity. (This will be Year Two for this … it’s a run, bike, and hike tri … believe it or not, the hike is the part that kills ya. It makes a 5K and a 15-mile bike ride look like child’s play.)
Anyway – here’s what’s been consumed lately:
Am Reading:
(Still) Reading:
- Refuse to be Done by Matt Bell
Finished The Wolf Wants In by Laura McHugh (fantastic – I gave my copy to my dad and he’s loving it too – WIN!); Forward by Abby Wambach; and Go Tell the Bees That I Am Gone by Diana Gabaladon. To be honest, Gabaladon’s books are getting so long – I would like that finish to count as two or three books.
Watching:
Considering that our youngest child is totally chiding us on the profanity content of what we’ve been watching on TV lately, I’ve reached for a safe bet and am making my way through the BBC’s Sherlock series. So far I am enjoying it.
Am Writing:
Coffee shop dates, at the teeny tiny lunchroom tables at my son’s dancing classes, etc. I’m trying.

Monday Mayhem is what happens when I neglect to write a Friday Fare. Or it can be any kind of article that happens to be published on a Monday. I hope that it provides a great start to your week!
