Happy Sunday, everyone! Today, I am planning to relax after a busy week. Our condo building is having all kinds of work done on it right now, so during the days, I hide in my office while people come through the unit to fix pipes and such. While they are all professional and courteous, it’s not fun to constantly have people in your home, especially when you are trying to work. I’m steeling myself for next week, which will be bad, but at the same time I remind myself that all the pipe work badly needs doing.
I’ve been playing around with my new laptop for just under a week now, and I absolutely love it. My old computer was a little too small to work on, only slightly larger than a netbook. This one is larger, though still slim and light. I’m really excited to have it, and have already tried to start catching up on blog work. This week was a great reading week - I spent much of yesterday reading (instead of working, something I’ll regret today). I’ve really been thinking about my “Best of 2011”, though I won’t be writing it up until 2012. After all, I still have two weeks of reading ahead of me!
This week, I’m giving away five sets of Thrity Umrigar’s backlist, thanks to the generous people over at Harper. I also posted another picture from New Zealand for my Wordless Wednesday. And don’t forget to sign up for the South Asian Challenge 2012!

I also hate having people work on the house when I am trying to work, but at times it just has to be done! I just started the Language of Flowers tonight after having read your review. It's very good, but also a bit shocking what with all the things that the protagonist has been through. I hope it all turns out well. I hope that you have a great Sunday, and that you get loads of time to enjoy your new computer!
Ugh, I hate having people in my house. My daughter calls them "creeps". They could be George Clooney but if they are in our business, they are creeps. I've got my best of lists coming Monday and Tuesday, not because I'm on top of things but as filler because I was having a horrible time getting to my reviews. Ha!
