The Sunday Salon (on Monday)
Good morning and a belated Merry Christmas/Happy Hanukkah/whatever you celebrate to you all! My Christmas was quiet but very enjoyable, my mother-in-law cooked a delicious meal and we had wonderful quality time with my husband’s side of the family. The weather was gorgeous (almost 80 degrees in Tampa, where my in-laws live) so that was a nice bonus. Unfortunately, I’m not feeling well at all, so I plan to take the rest of today to relax and hopefully my immune system will kill whatever is making me feel so yucky.
As many of you know, I’m traveling to Chicago on Thursday for New Years/my birthday weekend. 
I’m beyond excited, and I’m really hoping I’ll be able to kick this cold by then! That being said, I’ve decided to take the rest of the year off blogging. I was going to schedule some reviews for this week but as I’m not feeling up to it I’m just going to hold off until next year. I probably will not be around next weekend at all as I will be too busy enjoying the little time I have with family and friends back “home”.
The benefit of holding off on reviews is that I have enough unwritten reviews to last me almost the entire month of January already! And many of these were books I adored. So get excited about those for next year.
That said, I hope you all had a wonderful holiday and I’m wishing you a wonderful New Years as well. I hope the close of 2011 brings you much happiness and love. As I am reflecting back on this year and what I am thankful for, I have to say that I am so very thankful for all of you who read my blog, comment, and encourage me along the way. I have made so many wonderful friends through this blog and I am so grateful for each and every one of you.
Happy New Year.
Happy New Year! Enjoy your break.
Happy New Year to you as well and a happy birthday.
I am glad that yo had a nice holiday, Heather, and that you are planning on a nice trip for the New Year! Here’s hoping that the bug clears out and that you enjoy yourself immensely! I am grateful that we have gotten to be friends this year, and that I can look forward to getting to know you even better in the future! Have fun!
I’m glad you had a nice Christmas. Enjoy your trip and the new year!
Sound like a nice holiday, and more great times to follow. Enjoy your time with family and friends.
Hope you’re taking it easy and feeling better!
Enjoy your break and vacation! I adore Chicago, and the weather has been lovely in the Midwest (granted, I would prefer a good blizzard this time of year, but it is nice to have sun and warmer temperatures). Happy New Year!
Ugh I’m not feeling well today either. I canceled all my appointments. =(
Have a safe trip to Chicago and back and have a great New Year’s!
It sounds good. Thanks for sharing.
Looks like you are going to have a great New Year celebration. Enjoy every minute back home – it goes by so fast!
Have a safe holiday x
