Well, I sooo wanted to get caught up on my blog reading and book reviews before we headed out of town for the rest of the week, but it just ain't gonna happen. Oh well. Hmmm...just think how far behind I'll be come Monday...
Anyway, Happy Canada Day to all of you up north! Happy Birthday, Jean!!! (And by the way, there's something in the mail on the way to you...and I apologize that it's late!) And Happy 4th to all in the U.S.! Hope everyone has a wonderful, wonderful week!

Sometimes it might be important to me, I suppose...but even that's not guaranteed.

After that read-a-thon, I would go on vacation...lol! You deserve a serious break!
I agree with J.Kaye -- you deserve a vacation. Have a great time!
I agree with the others! You've a good break, ok? (I wish I'm taking one right now!) ;)
Have a wonderful time and a safe trip! Happy 4th to you guys too :)
P.S. Never fear - I imagine we'll all still be here when you get back. You probably won't miss a thing!
I'll miss seeing your posts and comments this week but I'm excited for you and the family getting to have some time away. Have a wonderful time off!
Hope you have a great vacation!!
I hope you have a great trip!
I can't believe I missed the read-a-thon! I wasn't planning on doing it myself, but I loved following your blog last year. I did catch up with reading it, but it would have been more fun in real time!
Have fun on vacation!!
And whenever you feel to far behind, comfort yourself with the fact that I think I'm about thirty reviews in the hole! :)
It is sometimes hard to catch up I know. Enjoy your time with your family. Happy 4th to you as well.
take care,
Dawn
Have a great time!
Have a safe trip and a great time! Happy 4th!
The parcel came today, and I shall be writing a proper thank you note tomorrow or Friday. I'd never heard of the book but have already read a couple of selections by favorite writers (Anne Lamott, Barbara Kingsolver). Hope you guys have a fantastic 4th!
I completely understand where you're coming from! I don't think I've gotten any reading done since the read-a-thon and my blogging has been sparse due to work--and I'm leaving tonight for a week!! ahhhhhh-makes you want to go crazy. :)
I hope you have a fabulous vacation!! Anywhere fun and exciting?
oh, don't you worry! you do have a family to pay attention to as well...!
and also, you're one of the most regular readers and commenters on my blog!
Trust me, you don't want to worry about feeling behind or it becomes a chore instead of fun. I've taken almost two weeks off from blogging, it is a big challenging to get into the swing of things again! I'm just trying not to worry about it, because a litle break is nice. Especially after you completed the entire read-a-thon!
I've given up hope of ever being completely caught up -- as you can see. LOL! I hope you're having a wonderful trip!
I'm home and trying to catch up! But not sure I'll ever be fully caught up. My google reader is full.
Hope you had fun....did y'all go on vacation?
