I hope you had a good weekend!  

Ours was pretty uneventful.  It was thankfully really pretty here and I spent most of the weekend doing stuff around the house.  I took General on a couple well deserved long walks and took myself on a couple runs.  

We're still in move limbo - not knowing our exact plans - so I spent some serious time starting to organize our basement into "move" and "storage".  I think its my way of coping with this feeling of having so much to do, but none of it I can just get done.

I have not been doing very well with my German lessons.  Its something I feel like you have to be in the right mood to do and I haven't been very good about doing it lately.  I'm going to do a couple lessons after this post - I promise!

I've been voraciously reading a book that a friend recommended to me.  Its called Fall of Giants by Ken Follett.  It tells a serious of stories surrounding World War I.  It sort of reminds me of Downton Abbey, the way it paints a picture from all angles - plus its during that era.  Its not the type of book I typically read, but I'm glad she recommended it, because I'm really enjoying it.

Its a quiet morning here, but its supposed to snow tonight... grumble grumble.  Hope you have a good rest of your week!

A Tramp Abroad by Mark Twain ~ Image courtesy of Wikipedia
I have hosted the blog A Broad Abroad for 4 years  now and despite the traditional connotations the word Broad can derive, I liked the name and didn't care.  Jason came across this yesterday and it made me laugh. 

Its a book by Mark Twain about his experiences while traveling abroad, most of which he experienced on foot - hence "tramp".  I think I need to read this book!

Stay tuned for tales from my tramp across Germany - it really does sound bad!
