The Sunday Post #33 – Weekly Wrap-up
Welcome to my Sunday Post. Thank you to Kimba over at The Caffeinated Reviewer, who is hosting this weekly event. It is the perfect opportunity to share what happened here on my own blog, as well as some of the happenings elsewhere in the Blogosphere.
This week was a short week, because we had Monday off for Pentecost, and it was my last week of teaching classes, as from next week on my students will be in final exam mode. It was also my last week of taking classes, and I was scrambling a bit on Sunday and Monday to be able to hand in my final papers for my MA classes. It’s all done now, though, so I’ll have even more time to read and blog now!

Elsewhere in the Blogosphere:
Amy @ A Novel Start has a great post about Book Blogging for the Busy Person.
What have you been up to this past week? Don’t forget to leave me a link so I can come visit your Sunday Post as well.
Thanks for stopping by, I hope you’ve enjoyed your weekend, and that next week will be filled with awesome!
What a great week you´ve had 🙂 Her merkes det også at sommeren ikke er langt unna. Ikke så mye skolearbeid som må gjøres, og ettermiddagene er fulle av foreldremøter og avslutninger. Håper du får en flott leseuke. Klem fra Anette 🙂
Deilig at sommeren endelig kommer, men jeg skulle gjerne hatt litt mindre pollen… Ha en fin leseuke du også Anette 🙂
Phew, you had a busy week, I bet it flew by pretty fast ! Enjoy your week-end and your books, relax and enjoy a new life rhythm 😉
True, the week was pretty busy and went by fast, and now, life is a bit slower-paced which is really nice.
Enjoy your week off work, Iza!
Looks like a busy week!
It sure was, Liza 🙂 Thanks for stopping by.
Wow, you were swamped, but thank goodness it’s over and as you mentioned, you can relax with a few good books. Hugs…Ro
Yes, now I’ll have a few months to relax and get organized before everything gets busy once more, Ro 🙂
Enjoy your break and happy reading!!!
Deb
Thanks Deb 🙂
Sounds like you had a busy and productive week. So you basically have summer vacation now? Is this your last year of the MA? I hope you’ll enjoy the extra time for blogging and reading! Have a great week!
I do have summer vacation now, Lola, and it feels really good! I still have another year to finish my MA, hopefully I’ll be able to complete everything, including my thesis, by June next year.
Thanks for stopping by.
That”s a lot of reviews in 1 week, I couldn’t do it. Hope you enjoy all the extra time to read!
I didn’t actually write all those reviews this past week, Elizabeth, I usually write and schedule ahead, and I don’t always have the same amount of reviews going live each week 🙂

Congrats on the end of the semester! I’ve done the last minute paper scramble more times than I’d care to remember LOL! It’s so great when it’s over 🙂 Do you have school work at all over the summer or are you done until fall?
Thanks, Berls 🙂 LOL, it seems I work better under pressure 😉 I never seem to be able to actually do much of my work in advance. I will have another paper I have to hand in at the beginning of August, but I’ll still have lots of time for the beach, the kids, and my kindle.
You had one very busy week. Now you can stop and smell the flowers, and read some of those books!
Yes, I’ll definitely have the time to smell the flowers now, Laura, and I’m very happy about that!

lots to do at the end of the school year but the summer break will be nice. Do you do summer programs in the summer?
Have a great week, Lexxie, Happy Reading ox
Actually, there are no summer programs here, Michelle… I kind of wish there were, especially for high-school kids, because if they fail a subject, they have to do the whole year over instead of studying during summer and do a test before the new school year begins.
Have a great week yourself!
Sounds like a very busy. I imagine you’re ready for a break. 🙂 Enjoy your time off and happy reading.
I’m definitely ready for a break, Bea, and I can’t wait to go to Spain and just spend my summer near the sea 🙂
Good luck finishing up your classes. Any big plans for summer?

Thanks Terri 🙂 My summer will be spent mostly in Spain, where I’ll be pretty lazy, read and spend time with my husband and my kids 🙂
That sounds amazing!
Short weeks go even faster when you are busy as listed above. Keep up the good work for you, your students, and your readers. 😉 <3
Thanks Xyra 🙂
I hope you enjoy your break and good luck with COYER. The Scavenger Hunt is going to be fun =)
I really look forward to COYER this time around, Kathy!
It is always nice to have an extra day off! Have a great week.
Yes, definitely nice to have an extra day off 🙂 Have a great week yourself, Nise’ 🙂
You mean you’ll be more easy to find and chat with?? Woohoo! I didn’t realize that your teaching responsibilities were done now. I’m kinda excited about that for selfish reasons. 🙂 I’m glad you were able to wrap up those and your MA obligations. I know it’s a relief. So how much longer til you’re heading to Spain? We leave for Yellowstone on Friday for our first family vacation. 🙂
I hope your week started off well! **BIG HUGS**
Yeah, in theory it should be easier to find me and chat with me, Brandee… But since I’ve been so busy, I have some dinner dates with friends coming up this week and next 🙂
We aren’t going to Spain until the 29th, because the youngest kids have school until the 26th, and I don’t want to drive down in the first big vacation weekend with all the other impatient people 🙂
I miss you!! *BIG HUGS*
