What I Did In July

Weeeehhhhh.

It has been almost a month of interweb silence. I’m sorry. I’m not a bad person, I’ve just been really busy with work, and then my family were abroad so I was solely responsible for all the household-y things-dude, it takes so long to change the bed sheets and do laundry for five people.

And, of course, they all went off and left me with about a weeks worth of their dirty clothes to look after. I wasn’t home for a few days before they left; trust me, if I had’ve been around, standards would not have slipped to such an appalling low (I’m kind of OCD about cleaning and laundry. Like, I iron our towels).

Plus, during their holiday I had lots of my own friends to stay (not the best plan when you’re working all the time but hey, we had our evenings).

And don't start me on work; Lord, but those ladies are demanding! Weh, weh, weh. 

So I’m sorry.

I have read a bit though.

I got through Dark Water by Tricia Rayburn, which I was so excited about and it was really, really good:

Then, I went on an Artemis Fowl binge, which was fantastic. I forgot how downright awesome those books are. Holly Short is my icon; in fact, as my hair is already kind of auburn and I am very short, I may get a pixie cut and a jumpsuit to complete the look.

                                                                           

Dude, if you haven’t read this series you need to get on that immediately. And there are no excuses as the series is complete, so no waffle about no wanting to be stuck on cliffhangers and so on.

Awesome, awesome, awesome.
