Happy Sunday! What a week. I feel like time at work went by so fast and I didn’t get everything I wanted to get done done. I did read a fair amount of books this week and two non-fictions to boot which is rare for me. For 2020, I am trying out genres I don’t typically read.
We just got hit with 20cm of snow yesterday which made for great weather to stay inside and read 🙂
Nothing else much to note about this week. It was pretty average. I did however re-fall in love with yoga and have been doing it every night this week to get myself in relaxed mind set.
I hope everyone has a great week!
