Posted on by

.

Sherry’s Shelves #183 is my weekly update from 2.3.19 – 2.9.19.

~~~

Hello. Welcome to another edition of Sherry’s Shelves. Glad the weather has been mild and I have been able to open the house up, letting in some freshly pollinated air. Tis the season of Claritin, Flonase and Musinex. LOL One day it even got in the seventies. I haven’t been up to much this week. Still messing around in the guest room, cleaning and purging. I have a lot of bookshelves in there, but I have five more in the living room. I am trying to figure out how I want to organize them. That’s the hardest part, the rest is just dusting and moving. Any who…Hope you have a great week.

Sherry’s Shelves #182 – #Books #Weather

Sherry’s Shelves #182 is my weekly update from 1.27.19 – 2.2.19.

~~~

Hi Everyone. Hope you had a great week and managed to stay warm as this brutally cold weather attacks us, acting as if it is alive. The weather report for the Florida Panhandle is cloudy, cool with chances of rain throughout the weekend. DRAT. I am looking at the pool. It is now filled with leaves from the hated oak trees. I swear they shed year round. At least the wind has died down, so maybe I can get it cleaned up in between rain showers. After all, March is just around the corner and I am in it…REGARDLESS of how cold it will be. It’s my springtime ritual and I am thinking warm and sunny thoughts. How about you? What do you look forward to in the springtime? I saw a robin last weekend. Even for the south it is a bit early. Do you have anything planned for this weekend?

Sherry’s Shelves #181- Golf & Senior Bowl #Senior Bowl

Posted on by

Sherry’s Shelves #181 is my weekly update from 1.24.19 – 1.30.19.

~~~

Hi Everyone. Hope you had a great week and managed to stay warm at this cold weather hits. The sun may be out here in Florida, but, man oh man, it is chilly. I get goose bumps if there is a slight breeze and it’s under 70. I forgot to look at the grass this morning, but the temp was under 40. Yesterday we had frost, YUK! That’s just wrong

I don’t know if I am having allergy attacks or getting a cold, OH NO. I started last year with a horrible case of the flu, so I am leery of being out and about this time of year. Looks like maybe I wasn’t careful enough, you know, WASH YOUR HANDS, DON’T TOUCH YOUR FACE, type of stuff.

Oh well, such is life…and there is lots of blogging to do. Let me know what your week has been like and I hope you have a good one.

We played golf on Tuesday and this is how I felt.

And I gave up…

What you can’t see…I had a car blanket wrapped around my legs too. LOL

And…the Reese’s Senior Bowl is in town so we made a quick stop in Mobile, Alabama. Unfortunately, the weather didn’t cooperate and the rain finally moved in. Didn’t bother me. I was so cold, I was over it anyway. LOL Damn this getting older. When I was even 5 years younger, this wouldn’t have stopped me. Now it’ been there, done that, have the T-shirt…and I do have the T-shirt. LOL

How about you? Are you a cold weather lover, or is the steamy tropics for you?

Sherry’s Shelves #180 – Binging on Some Movies on the Lifetime Channel #Movies

Posted on by

.

Sherry’s Shelves #178 is my weekly update from 1.20.19 – 1.26.19.

~~~

Hello fellow bloggies. We have had some rain off and on and some colder weather, but right now the sun is shining and it’s in the 60s. I am already thinking of spring, getting a jump on the household spring cleaning. I am binging on movies, with lots of smiles and a few tears. August Rush was the first movie and if you have never seen it, I will tell you that I loved it. My rating – 4 Stars. A young boy was given up for adoption and ends up on the streets. He is a musical prodigy and believes he will find his parents through music. Music speaks to me, as I am sure it does to a lot of us. After watching this, the ‘noise’ around me won’t be the same. And…yes…there were some tears in my eyes, even though I knew the ending.

Now, I’m watching Me Before You. I love the young woman, Emilia Clarke. She is so sweet, spunky, and cute as hell. I feel I know what’s coming, but I can hardly wait to find out. Me Before You has the highest highs and lowest lows. I feel like Jojo Moyes ripped my heart out and stomped on it. 5 Stars for this brilliant and surprising, for me, movie!

What about you? Seen any good movies lately?

Sherry’s Shelves #179 – Brisk Yet Sunny Here In Florida

Posted on by

.

Sherry’s Shelves #178 is my weekly update from 1.6.19 – 1.12.19.

~~~

Hello fellow bloggers. How’s it shaking in your neck of the woods? We had two great days early in the week, so I picked up the debris in the front yard, sucked leaves out of the pool and messed around outside. Unfortunately, the weather didn’t hold. It is still sunny but barely gets into the fifties. Still…better than shoveling snow and scraping car windows.

I have a few reviews to catch up on from the holidays and then it will be business as usual, sorta. I’m wanting to do different kinds of posts, so I am checking out a lot of blogs looking for ideas and still learning the new WordPress crap stuff. One thing I miss that I haven’t figured out is how to do rows of books like I used to. They don’t want to stay side by side, but below each other, like the above meme banners that used to be side by side. I wanted to experiment with posts the old way, so now it makes more sense. I do like clean and simple, for the most part. I want to grab four of my own photos for the headers. We are having trouble with our office computer, so scanning photos has been put on hold. I have hundreds, maybe thousands of pics to scan before they fade. It seems like, with technology, it’s always something, but I am much more patient than I used to be. Why sweat the small stuff? It’s not like it will change anything. LOL

Have a great week and I’ll be seeing you in cyberspace.

Sherry’s Shelves #178 is my weekly update from 12.30.18 – 1.5.19.

Hello Fellow Bloggers. Well, the holidays are over and I am still packing up the Christmas decorations, finishing up painting the shed (which Mr Wonderful has done most of and that is only one of the reasons why he is Mr Wonderful), sucking leaves out of the pool when it isn’t raining (which it has done entirely too much, but the sun is shining today and they say we will have sun for the weekend) and I hope to do some yard cleanup. There are a lot of those pesky little oak tree branches that seem to be a never ending problem. The weather has been warm, not like last year. I remember being in New Orleans for the 2018 New Years celebration and the wind chill was -35. This year I was on the golf course for New Years Day and it was in the 70s. BUT, there is no such thing as global warming or climate change here in Florida. LOL

I don’t know about you, but I have upgraded to the new WordPress and am tearing my hair out. LOL I accidentally hit the button, but I figure, sooner or later, they will make us upgrade anyway. There are a lot of cool features I am figuring out, but I hate the learning curve. How about you…did you click that button too?

I hope you all enjoyed the holidays are have a wonderful new year filled with fun, family and a lot of good books.

MAIL CALL

I won Renegades by Marissa Meyer from Lauren @ Always Me. I have read some of her work and am super excited to have another one of her books. Thanks Lauren and Marissa.

I received a package of seven novels from Diverson Books. Thanks so much! I have already read the two by Leigh Perry and loved them, especially Sid!
