This is needed by everyone just now with the increasing cases due to Omicron. Half in there, this too will pass.

Here is my TBR List for September. So excitedi!! 😃
#bookspin #bookspinbingo #doublespin
I‘ve never read 20-25 books in a month!! 😱
There‘s always a first time, right? Crossing fingers! #September #challenge #game #books #tbr
#author #fun #autumn

TheAromaofBooks

TheAromaofBooks Yay!! The official numbers & bingo board are posted on my page, so just let me know if you can't find them or if you have any questions!! 3y

JudeCC @TheAromaofBooks 😃👍 Thanks! One question 🙋‍♀️ Do you have to read them in order? I mean, number 1 first and then #2 and so on? Or however you like? Excited!! 3y

TheAromaofBooks You can read them in any order you like!!! And not everyone reads all their books each month - many (most really) people just try to score a bingo rather than completing their full card. Good luck!!! 3y

JudeCC @TheAromaofBooks Thanks!! 😃 3y

Late tonight, but time to get the show back on the road, Ayrmer Cove. #VirtualTour

Been a massive day. Done risk assessments, net staff, met leadership team, several meetings with deputies, found out critical work children and what support they need, identified vulnerable children, allocated them to bubbles, found out staff availability, allocated children and staff to rooms, allocated staff to remote learning, finalised remote learning offer....

Andrew65 Written four sets of letter to vulnerable children and critical workers, written information about remote offer to parents / carers, answered hundreds of emails (or felt like it), found relief caretaker (isolating), sorted meals, sorted cleaning, attended hour and half LA meeting, tweeted out to parents. Most probably more and all in a day! And this after only four hours sleep across two nights! (edited) 4y

TheBookHippie Holding you close in thought and heart 🤍 I drop a pot of soup if I were close 👩🏽‍🍳🤍 4y

IamIamIam Wow, you've accomplished so much!!! Your efforts are greatly appreciated and I'm not even in your district!! The UK strain was identified in upstate NY, but not downstate so far. More testing equals more positive cases so I'm not sure if I'm ready to panic but I feel we're heading for a lockdown soon. Thinking of everyone tonight!! 4y

CBee @IamIamIam I just told hubby that I can‘t watch the news today. It‘s sending me into a spiral and I just can‘t!! 4y

CBee @Andrew65 continuing to keep you and your family in my thoughts ♥️♥️♥️ 4y

IamIamIam @CBee Totally!!! I try not to do more than check in with the email updates from my local news because I'll absolutely lose it. I put timers on my social media too so I'm not doomscrolling and avoiding life!! 10 minutes on FB, 15 on IG... but Litsy has no restrictions. 😂 You guys are good for my mental health!!! 4y

CBee @IamIamIam doomscrolling!!!! That‘s the perfect word!!! I can‘t do any other social media except Litsy, it‘s definitely a picker upper!!! 4y

MsMelissa Wow, Andrew! That‘s an awful lot. I‘m sure the parents and your staff appreciate all the hard work you are putting in. I hope you are able to take some time to unwind. Keeping you in my thoughts, and sending positive energy vibes your way. As tough as things are right now, we will get through this together. 4y

AmyG @IamIamIam I have been doomscrolling twitter all day. And yes...thinking of you and your family @Andrew65 4y

MsMelissa @CBee I hear you on not being able to watch the news. I‘m generally a news junkie and have to know what‘s going on in the world, but sometimes I get completely overwhelmed by it all and have to step away. Lately I‘ve tried my best to avoid anything but local news. 4y

CBee @AmyG stop the doomscrolling right this minute, ma‘am (I need a shaking finger at you emoji 😂) (edited) 4y

CBee @Book_Fiend_Melissa same! I get Wapo updates on my phone but then I open them and I‘m almost immediately like, NOPE 😳😂 4y

IamIamIam No more scrolling!!! I have 10 minutes to Jeopardy and Alex Trebek's last shows are more important than anything else in the world... at least for 30 minutes! 4y

CocoReads Busy evening at work but 🤞we can actually get out in 10 minutes like we‘re supposed to! 4y

Andrew65 @TheBookHippie I even eat my dinner tonight at my desk! 4y

MittenGirlPeach What an amazing amount you‘ve accomplished! I do hope you can rest up soon. Hopefully as things settle down into routines you‘ll be able to. 4y

Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick As I'd say about my niece or dog, someone had a big day, Andrew! I hope the staff and parents appreciate all the work you've put in. Here in NJ, most drastic changes have a few days before going into effect but you've had to pivot overnight and that's no easy feat. I applaud your dedication. My day was fine, just felt tired, like I didn't sleep. Sympathy restlessness, perhaps? 4y

kezzlou85 You're doing an amazing job @Andrew65 easy to see how much you care about your staff, pupils and parents. Day 2 of home school was a short one but tomorrow the live lessons start so hoping it will flow and feel more like a school day. Each day I do this makes me appreciate even more how amazing teachers are 4y

Ellies_Books06 Wow! I worked at a school too. You accomplished a lot today. Sending you hugs an strength as always! 💙📖💙 4y

CBee @IamIamIam ohhhhh his last shows 😕😕😕😕 4y

AmyG @CBee Ha! The shamey finger has no power over me! 4y

CBee @AmyG it doesn‘t work with my kids either so 🤷‍♀️😂 4y

AmyG @CBee Ha!!! Maybe it‘s YOU. 🤣😘 4y

CBee @AmyG it‘s me. I‘m too NICE! 😂😂😂 4y

Lynnsoprano Andrew, what you are doing is nothing short of amazing. Please do us all a favor and take care of yourself. You are under so much stress, with pressures from so many directions, and it‘s too easy to put yourself last. I try to keep in mind a saying that I was told to focus on at a very stressful point in my life: “after me, you come first.” You can‘t help anyone else if you don‘t care for yourself first. Sending positive thoughts and hugs. 4y

Lynnsoprano @IamIamIam Here in Florida, the UK strain is in the county just north of us. Trying not to panic, but the positivity rate is over 12% and our governor won‘t do a thing. I‘m over 65 and eligible for the vaccine, but they‘ve botched the rollout badly. Hubby and I supposedly are on the waiting list, but I‘m not holding my breath. What a mess! This is the only sane place online. 4y

IamIamIam @Lynnsoprano Oh no!! Fingers crossed that you get your vaccine soon!! My in laws are going down in February to have their house painted and check in because they haven't been back since last March but they're only staying a few weeks. My MIL has asthma and is really concerned about being in FL for too long. Their neighbors are Canadian so clearly they're not coming in. Scary days but I'm glad you've been well!!! 4y

TheBookHippie @Andrew65 GAH I need to send soup STAT over the pond to you. 4y

CoverToCoverGirl Thinking of you and your family.. take care of yourself and each other. You‘re a real life superhero! Sending you tons of support from across the pond! 4y

TrishB Make sure you look after yourself too 💜 4y

Velvetfur Andrew you're superhuman! It's amazing, everything you're doing, but put your foot down, say no, and get more hours of sleep....please 🙂 4y

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Sending love and prayers 🙏🏻❤️ 4y

pick

This one isn‘t in the database. This was a different and interesting read about two twins, where one twin claims her sister‘s son is in fact her child, but everything says she has mental health issues and this isn‘t the case. This one took me a while to get into but in the end was an enjoyable book and quite different and refreshing. I saw some of what was coming but there were still some surprises in here. Not sure what I felt about the main 👇

Andrew65 ☝️ protagonists. I think they both had their issues. Overall it was an enjoyable read, but possibly somewhere between so so and pick. #Netgalley #TheChildWhoNeverWas 4y

Andrew65 Book 8 finished for #NetGalleyReviewathon @sprainedbrain 4y

Andrew65 @Tove_Reads Yellow coat for both on the cover for this one, but not as good as red cover books! The theory holds. 4y

Thanks @RamsFan1963 for the tag!
I was torn between 2 & 4 but my wanderlust wins out so I‘ll take the vacation please!
@veritysalter what say you?

marleed I think I‘d go with 4. I have a tendency to feel as if i have more ownership when I see a live performance. Imagine my ‘ownership‘ if I had a one-on-one with my favorite authors! 4y

My mom is having surgery tomorrow and I am hoping to keep my anxiety in check tomorrow. I don't really know how I feel about my current read so I am going to take some other books with me so I have something to chose from. I am not crazy to take all these books with me, am I?

cobwebmoth Not crazy at all. Sending positive thoughts and hugs! 5y

wildwoodreads Did this with my father‘s back surgery. He was in surgery 12 hours so I actually read multiple books. It helped pass the time a little faster. Praying all goes well for your mother! 5y

Megabooks Nope! Sending positive vibes and hugs! 💙 5y
