Delighted to recieve my #Jolabokaflod parcel yesterday!
@MaleficentBookDragon @Yuki_Onna

Yuki_Onna Heeeyyy, how quick! 😊 I just now realized that I forgot to include a Christmas Card. 🙄 So typically me, this - Sorry, Abi... But I hope you'll like my choices! 😊🤗

@MaleficentBookDragon Could you please mail/post the tracking number of the swap parcel for me, Chelle? You know, there's still issues with the German delivery services. So many parcels are lost/dropped off randomly - with the tracking number I could investigate 🤓

One little man was so wound up waiting for Santa that he just wouldn't stop moving! Sound asleep and I have a laundry list six miles long before I get a bit of rest. I hope everyone doesn't mind but I'm going to hold off on my #Jolabokaflod and #CreepyChristmas packages until tomorrow night. I just don't think I can give them the attention they deserve today 🥱

Happy Holidays to All!!

Also just thought I would post a photo from yesterday - we were supposed to get 1-3" of snow Christmas Eve and got around 7!!! I absolutely love snow and have been SO EXCITED about it!! We took a lil snow drive yesterday morning & everything was gorgeous.

@Callemarie you completely spoiled me! You went so far beyond the requirements of the swap that I'm in awe! Such a fun mix of books and little cozy treats! I adore this mug (and I'm picky about them!) and the candle is heavenly. Joseph is VERY interested in the throw and may claim it for himself. THANK YOU!!!! @Avanders #elfswap

Alright definitely a bump up from last week! I‘m reading hard and watching lots of Christmas movies and I need to work on more bingos coming up! I‘ve been bad about the hallmark ones but I‘ve written some notes so I‘ll get it together soon! I had to put a ton of movies on hold to get close to any bingos so hopefully I‘ll get one soon on the movie card! #readnosedreindeer #wintergames2020 @StayCurious

It‘s a balmy 58 degrees today in our pocket of Colorado, so I shoveled the driveway and walk—and now don‘t I deserve an hour or two uninterrupted reading time?!

Bookwormjillk +16 shoveling at 57 degrees???? Colorado weather is weird 5y
Ireadkidlit With back to back storms It had been too cold to melt the packed down stuff before, so I took advantage of the heat wave. Normally the snow here is short-lived. But yes, the weather is totally weird. 5y
