TRACY'S HAPPENINGS OFF THE BLOG
Hi again, everyone! In case you didn't notice, MC and I have been taking a break from Cornerfolds. Why did I leave for a few weeks? Well, mostly because I was feeling extremely overwhelmed with life in general. A lot of new things have been happening with buying a new house, moving into it, and raising a new puppy from 7 weeks old, among other things.
Just after I announced my hiatus, my mom went into the hospital after having surgery the week prior, so I spent the next week on the edge of my seat worrying about that. Good news - she's home and doing great now! My brother also came to visit for a week from June 19th through the 26th and we spent 5 of those days at Disney World, which was super fun, but exhausting! What I'm saying is, I chose to take a break at the right time!
While I was gone I fell behind on reading and reviewing, so Goodreads is yelling at me now. Maybe I'll catch up to my yearly goal, but maybe I won't. At this point I'm definitely reading for fun instead of to meet a set number of books read. I did discover some great new movies while I was gone though! Some of my favorites have been The Guest and The Cure For Wellness.
Finally, we got a makeover! I wanted a fresh start and had to choose between moving to Wordpress or getting a new blog makeover. I'm loving our whimsical new design! Maybe even enough not to change it for awhile! ;)

THIS WEEK I READ
I didn't read a single thing, audiobook or physical copy.
Instead, I spent my hiatus focusing on family, my puppy, and catching up on bad TV.
Hello everyone! Long time, no talk! When we decided to take a break, I was in the middle of a sickness that lasted three weeks and just wouldn't let me be. Then about three days after I finally felt better, I ended up at the doctor due to horrible pain in my hips that had been building for a while. So I have been in physical therapy and very sore and grumpy since then. This break couldn't have come at a better time for me. Unfortunately, I have majorly fallen behind on my reading, but I am slowly getting back into the groove. I have so many books staring at me from my shelves demanding to be read, but I just haven't had the time lately. I am currently in the middle of a nice long weekend, so hopefully I can do some catching up in the next few days. Despite all the craziness that has been going on in my life, it's good to be back! Can't wait to catch up with all of you!
