Sunday Post (July 6)

The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba @ Caffeinated Book Reviewer. It’s a chance to share news, a post to recap the past week on your blog, showcase books and things received, and share news about what is coming up on the blog for the week ahead. To get in on the Sunday funday, see the rules here: Sunday Post Meme.  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I just got back from my trip, which you can read all about here, and am trying to play catch-up with all of you wonderful bloggy folks (400+ emails, and they won’t stop coming!), write up reviews, and get prepared for July on the blog…and getting the house back in order. What, relatives are coming for a pool party to send off my brother to boot camp this week? Quick! Clean EVERYTHING!

Seriously, how do you come back from a seven day trip and everything seems a disaster?

Update: Originally the Monthly Chit Chat was the first Saturday of each month, but now I realize that’s kind of silly because it doesn’t give an accurate accounting of the month, so it will be moved to the END of the month from now on, as a wrap up post for the month and a sneak peek of what’s to come the next month.
