I'm going to be out of touch for the next couple of weeks as I'll be AT. THE. BEACH. in Cozumel, Mexico and pretty much unplugged! :-D
I might be able to check in sporadically depending on the Wi-Fi situation but if not, I'll miss you ALL!!!
Shuttle is picking me up at 1:50 AM. Gaaaahhhhh!! See you later everyone!! I have a bunch of things to finish up at work and then I'll be off to pack!

What happened Irene?
I had a bad last few days, actually! Drama with my sister-in-law this weekend. Not going into detail, but I seriously wanted to punch her. Hubby and I got in a fight somewhat related to the whole thing. But we made up already, and we're fine now. But that wrecked my whole weekend!
Then yesterday at work I burned 3 fingers rather badly on some very hot water, almost boiling. Luckily we do have a nurse on site at my work who was able to fix me up good, so they are already healing pretty well. But that ruined my whole day yesterday!
And still fighting this awful cold! UGH! Yesterday I came home from work, slept 3 hours, got up for 2 hours, went back to sleep for the night. Today after work came home and slept another 3 hours! I'm off work tomorrow though.
That was one big old whine, sorry about that!
Things are going a bit better though, and the weather right now is perfect here. Look at the positive!

Sometimes you just need to whine :) Auch! Sounds pretty hurtful with your fingers! You seem to have had some pretty bad days indeed! Sending some luck your way :)
I was feeling rather anxious earlier :/ That happens sometimes. I just sat down and colored for an hour and that helped a lot :)
Goodreads friends, my life is not revolving in its axis correctly at this point in time. Late Saturday July 18th, my husband took his life. We are all devastated I have no idea what I am doing right now. Please bear with me. I will get back to reading eventually if I can concentrate

If you need anything at all, please don't hesitate to ask one of us. Take as much time as you need.

I am so so sorry to hear this Loni. There is nothing I can say to even begin to express my condolences. What Katherine said, let us know if you need anything at all, we'll all try to help anyway we can. Even if you just need to ramble and vent, we'll listen :) *HUGS*

Loni wrote: "Goodreads friends, my life is not revolving in its axis correctly at this point in time. Late Saturday July 18th, my husband took his life.

I've had close friends take their own life and it was devastating but to have to have it be your husband has to be incredibly painful and it is totally understandable not to know what you are doing right now. Please reach out if you need to talk.
It can be so hard to deal with all of the thoughts and emotions that come through when something like that happens.

Loni, I am so sorry for your loss. My deepest condolences. Please let us know if we can help in any way. I can't even imagine what you must be going through. *hugs*

Sometimes it's easier to confide in people who aren't in your proximity, please feel comfortable to vent and we're all here to listen.

I just became a beta tester for the Nook app. ;-D I have no idea what that means. I use it ALL the time so if anyone should be testing it out, I should. I've even sent in complaints before.
Karen, you'll just use it like normal, and report any issues. They gave you a way to report, right?
Darryl beta tests games and apps and stuff all the time. We both just got done beta testing Windows 10. They got a lot of feedback from us!

Ha! I have a major complaint I want to do anyway so now's my chance, right? ;) I haven't figured out how to give feedback yet. It may not have even started.

I'm back! I needed some time off from goodreads :)I had a great time at my parent's! Usually I'm home for 3-4 days, but this time it was 11 days and I really enjoyed it!
The dog show was pretty good although my parent's dog didn't do as good as I was expecting :/ And I got two blisters in my right hand as well because, well, showing a dog is much harder than I thought! Last time I did it I had a bit of callosity (?? Google tells me this is the word?) in my hands because I did it so often haha! So yeah, that part wasn't too fun, but the rest of it was nice. And the weather...so great! Got a sunburn in my scalp lol.
The anniversary was fun too! We went to a pub and had some beers and talked about everything including the travels we did last year. It was so nice to be out just the two of us :)
The wedding was okay. The bride was so beautiful ♥ I was disappointed in my old friends though, they didn't seem to want to talk to me so I felt a little left out and like I didn't belong there :/ Not sure what to make about that...
@Oda - Are you still liking uni? :D Is Oslo far from where you used to live?
