Chuckles Weekend Roundup

Welcome to my feature Chuckles Weekend Roundup where I will be looking at what books I've received, anything interesting I've done or bought or watched and other random stuff. I'll be taking a look back at what happened in my blogging world too, sort of like The Sunday Post that some of you do! 

Please note that I'll be visiting your STS/SP as normal, but I don't follow or leave comments on blogs run by Google Plus, or DISQUS as I refuse to join something just to leave comments, and I won't allow DISQUS to follow new people, update my profile or post tweets 'on my behalf'. I am the only one who does that on my social media! I won't comment on any blog that makes me sign in using another account. Sometimes, I have problems leaving messages on blogs hosted by Wordpress-they try to block me because I deleted my account with them but I will persevere as it only happens the odd time!

****************

It's a new year and I'm going into it with a chilled out attitude that should hopefully lead to less stress! Housework will be done when I have the energy (I nearly wiped myself out trying to get everything cleaned last week!) I'm pleased to report I'm comfy with operating the new washing machine! I will read what I want when I want, do my own challenges without deadlines and pressure, watch films and box sets and documentaries as I feel like it and try to get a bit more fun back into my life! Maybe a few craft projects or something! No set goals or reading lists, and a few lazy days like the beagle if I want to!!!

 

I'm still trying to catch up with various tasks connected to my reading-adjusting Goodreads shelves, filling in empty old reviews that I have no notes of (ugh!), a written list of everything on my ereaders including details on page numbers and plot (helps me decide what to read next without having to go online!) These things continue to be a work in progress. Book buying can resume now that the festives are over but I have no plans to go really wild, just a few new releases for my January collection! I'm starting the year by uploading physical books that I've somehow forgot to put on my TBR.
