Building the Book Pile #500

Welcome to Building the Book Pile!

Happy Sunday!

I hope everyone is having a great long weekend so far!

Monday
Busy season is upon me. I had a presentation to about 1/3 of the 1Y class - it went fine overall. I also was asked to go on a global trip in November for work so I booked my flight... getting excited for that.


Tuesday
Tuesdays are always full of meetings, this one especially so and they took over my day. In the afternoon though I went to a reflective journaling session a friend is running through the term... and it was impactful and nice. so if you want a prompt- what are you working towards?  my initial reaction to this question was panic. 

Wednesday 
slow, sleepy day at work... was welcomed after so much the last to days. I got a lot off my to do list completed. 

Thursday
I had a number of meetings again today and met with student too. I also had to give another presentation, this time for the exchange students. The day was busy but ended nicely with a happy hour with the ERN groups. We met up with some friends and reconnected with others - it was great. 

Friday
WFH today, it will only be Fridays for a bit now. I got a few loads of laundry done in between emails and going through my updated to do list. Ended the day going out to eat, stopping by Home Depot to look at some things, and then to Homegoods to look for a rug (since we pulled carpet out, we need one for the winter months in there). I left with snacks and a new spooky butter dish but no rug. 

Weekend 
We have done lots already and have a pretty packed weekend to come too. Saturday we went to the local big yard sale and then went to an Augtoberfest event our favorite pub was hosting. Today we will head to go see my dad for his birthday BBQ and then we have to drop a car for service next week, plus all the normal week prep stuff - groceries, meal plans, chores, errands etc. 

Linking up this week with the Caffeinated Reviewer and her Sunday Post series.
