The Sunday Post - 19th edition

The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba the Caffeinated Book Reviewer ~ It's a chance to share news~ A post to recap the past week on your blog, showcase books and things we have received and share news about what is coming up on our blog for the week ahead. 

I took out 4 vacation days as we had "winter vacation" week this week. And I read and read. I did go to work one day and another place as my workplace was closed.

    1. Oh the weather was bad but that was not the cause. It was cos my job place was closed and I did not want to go work at another place, so I only worked there one day and took vacation days
