Hello fellow bloggers. Whew. Another busy week with THE MAN. We have been here, there, and if felt like everywhere.

We made a stop in Mobile Alabama, because this tall ship was visiting. I love hanging out around docks and piers, looking at all the ships and boats. The water seems to call out to me and it is impossible for me to resist.

Schooner America won the first America’s Cup.

schooner-america-11816A HUGE thank you to all the Veteran’s and all they sacrifice to allow us to stay FREE!

This is what I did to show my support…

And to honor the missing man, Jeff Kuss, who lost his life this year.

The 70th anniversary of the Blue Angels demonstration.

IN MY MAILBOX

It is always so much fun to open my mailbox and see what goodies are inside.

Some I won and some I got for review.

Check out all these beauties and I want to tell the authors THANK YOU so much!

Sherry’s Shelves #101 – Even a toad needs some LOVE

Posted on by

Sherry’s Shelves #101 is my weekly update from October 30 – November 5, 2016.

Sunday Post #201 Countdown to Spring..

Stacking The Shelves {200}

Hello fellow bloggers. Another week has come and gone. The fall weather has arrived, with cool nights and warm days. It still got in the 80s and the sun is shining brightly. I can’t remember the last time it rained. Everything is dry and going dormant for the winter. I’ve been doing fall cleanup and I still need to get some more mulch and finish up protecting the plants for the winter. The garage is looking better, but I have to finish that up. I’ve been doing a lot of blogging, trying to get most of my posts done for the rest of the year. Mr Wonderful has a lot of time off the last six weeks of the year and I want to enjoy my time with him without the pressure of having to post. There are always those last minute tour giveaways I want to share, but they are quick to do seeing a lot of the tours now do HTML. I have been and will be posting more reviews from my backlog, along with my recent reads. Will I ever catch up? I doubt it. I have a hard time saying no to so many good looking books.

Even a toad needs some lovin’

Sherry’s Shelves #98 – What do Kid Rock and Elephants Have in Common

Sherry’s Shelves #98 is my weekly update from October 9 – October 15, 2016.

Sunday Post #201 Countdown to Spring..

BORN FREE

I subscribe to the BBC on YouTube because of videos like this one.

And…for your listening enjoyment while you peruse the rest of my post…Kid Rock and his powerful song, Born Free. His music speaks to my soul and I have tears in my eyes as I listen to this. It’s kind a funny, because when I first became aware of it is when they used it for a baseball playoff promo. Plus, he’s a fellow Michigander.

You can knock me down and watch me bleed, but you can’t keep no chains on me!

Hello fellow bloggers. Our weather is still great here in the Florida Panhandle. In the 80s during the day and a crisp 60s at night. The cooler nights have taken all the humidity out of the air and the sky is a sharp and brilliant blue…beautiful. Because of the shorter days, I have been watching the moon grow fuller and it will be in all its glory tonight. I’m going to take some more photos. I have recently purchased a cord release because touching the camera caused the lens to move ever so slightly, creating camera shake. I had one before, but since I updated my camera, I had to get another one. Here’s hoping it works. “fingers crossed” How about you? Are you a stargazer?

We are still getting in the pool. It is 78 and much warmer than the northern waters where I grew up…in Michigan…and where I spent many a summer weekend…Cape Cod.

Here is an update on my blogging ahead status:

I don’t really count October, but I have overdone it a bit and spent so much time because there are so many good books out there, that I thought I would throw it out there.

  • Oct:  21 posts for the 17th through the 31st
  • Now, for the real thing:
  • Nov:  6
  • Dec:  9

See what I mean about spending too much time on October? I will be trying to limit myself for the rest of the year and catch up on owed reviews and books that I wanted to share just because I liked them!

How do YOU say no to a good book?

Hello fellow bloggers. I have spent so much time the past couple of weeks reading and doing posts for blog ahead, that my eyes are blurring and one of them keeps twitching. I had to quit for a while and am looking forward to taking it slow this weekend, doing other things. How about you? Have you ever had this happen? What are your weekend plans?

If you want to participate in blog ahead, check out the link at the bottom right.

Mr Wonderful and I spent some time in Biloxi this past week, taking pics while these awesome cars were Cruising the Coast.

This seemed like the perfect opportunity to share my favorite Florida Georgia Line song.

For those of you in the line of fire from Hurricane Matthew, stay safe. 🙂

Hello fellow bloggers. The weather has been great here in the Florida Panhandle. Still cleaning and organizing and working outside. Seems like the work is never done…Wait…it isn’t. 🙂  I’m just taking my time, of course reading and blogging too. My mom has been visiting and we play a lot of cards. Usually she kicks my butt, but I have been on a winning streak. Hope you had a great week.

Hello fellow bloggers. Another week has passed by and it is going way too fast. I am still busy cleaning house, every nook and cranny. I have been messing around outside, because I love it out there. I would rather do yardwork than clean house any day. 🙂

I have also been writing a lot of reviews, trying to get ahead. It seems every time I do, something happens and I end up behind again. Do you find that happening to you?

Any hoo…seeing I am in a blogging mood, I thought I would share some books I have picked up lately, both for review and just because. I know my Sunday post has been short, but the summer is not long enough and I MUST enjoy every minute I can squeeze in.

FOR REVIEW

I love Jon Land’s work and the Caitlin Strong character is one of my favorites. Check out this cool package that arrived on my door step.

2014-04-17-01-11-00

I will be reviewing For The Love of Grace by Andy Blackman, about a business man who becomes wanted by more than one intelligence agency.

My sister, Laura @ fuonlyknew, talks so much about Onyx Webb by Richard Fenton & Andrea Waltz, that I am going to be reviewing the first three books.

I will be reviewing the entire set of Gabriel Valjan’s Roma series, about a female forensic accountant, over the course of the next several months.

2014-04-17-01-12-33

JUST BECAUSE

I don’t know if any of these are free or not, so if something looks good, be sure and check the price.

Hello fellow bloggers. I’ve had another fantastic week of blogging, reading and cleaning house. I know most people wait until spring to do their cleaning, but I bought new bedding and curtains for the master bedroom and got the bug. That’s not to say I don’t have time to catch some of my favorite TV and this past week I caught this episode….again. ENJOY!
