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!
 
Another week bites the dust! It's been a bit crazy round here with workmen digging up the road, neighbours with medical issues, freezing cold weather and other stuff going on. I didn't get any reading done again but I feel I'm getting more into a reading mood, selecting a bunch of shortish reads to get to hopefully this week. I've been doing exercise every day this week in the house and cutting out some junk food which is helping my mood, and getting bits and pieces of various things dealt with. Productive overall-more details in my next winter blues post. I feel I'm at least doing a little for each of my goals this year so I can't complain! In my defence I have been working on these A-Z posts all week, getting ideas together!
 
Chuckles Blogging World
I seemed to start this last seven days well, catching up with blogs and comments but it fell away as I got busy at the weekend. I'll get caught up today and tomorrow though so no harm done really.
 
Book Reviews
I did THINK about them this week, so that's a start!

The Week Ahead
This week is a MUST READ week! I have a few short books that I'm determined to at least try and read. Maybe hoovering up all the novellas and short stories is the way to go at the moment.

  3. Sometimes there is just too much going on to focus on a book. I hope that you have a good week!

    1. I seem to have more energy and be on the go more which is making it touch to sit still and read or watch stuff this week!
