What is the Sunday Salon?
The Sunday Salon is a place to link up and share what we have been doing during the week. It's also a great opportunity to visit other blogs and join in the conversations going on there.
My sister and I,
after a 16-mile e-bike ride
around Waco
We came home from spending the week with my sister and her husband in Waco, and I got back to my at-home routine of swimming and doing nature volunteer work and reading and taking some classes. What am I taking this fall? I signed up for a four-week guitar class, an eight-week writing class, and a six-week happiness class.
What I Read Last Week:
An African History of Africa by Zeinab Badawi (Nonfiction)
Dealing with Dragons by Patricia C. Wrede (Children's Fantasy)
Dream Count by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie (Fiction)
What I'm Reading Now:
Under the Eye of the Big Bird by Hiromi Kawakami
Katabasis by R. F. Kuang
A New New Me by Helen Oyeyemi
What I Posted Last Week Here at Readerbuzz:
I began to list 3 Good Things every day during the pandemic. Now I've established a regular routine of writing down my 3 Good Things. Here are 3 Good Things from last week:
Good Thing #1:
I joined friends
at the beach in Galveston
for the sunrise.
Good Thing #2:
Burrowing Owl
that has (apparently) settled into
life near a Galveston restaurant.
Good Thing #3:
Action for Happiness
online class to practice
happiness habits.
You and your sister look like you had a great time! Lots of classes coming up for you this fall. I hope you enjoy them. I added An African History of Africans to my TBR list.
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful to have the time to spend with your sister. A longer visit is always good. I'll be eager to hear about your happiness class.
ReplyDeleteBurrowing owls seem to have adapted amazingly to suburban life. We saw a lot of them in a town in Florida, where they burrow ritght in green lawns. What fun!
ReplyDeleteGood to see everyone at Sunday Salon.

What a cute photo of you & your sister. Sounds like a fun bike ride. I'm glad you liked Dream Count -- I still plan to get to it and I hope you enjoy the talk with the author. I'd love to see a burrowing owl ... but mostly what we have here are Great Horned Owls. Thx for the link up.
ReplyDeleteI could really use a happiness class! Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI've never seen a burrowing owl, that's a very cool photo. Glad you had such a good time iwth your sister on the visit. When I used to get together with my sis we could get laughing until tears came. Fun times.
ReplyDeleteI haven't checked in for a whole ad so fun to see you keeping at it! Biking!!!! I am so overdue to do that :)
ReplyDeleteI am shamed by the amount you do!! It is fall, I need to motivate myself.
