When I feel stressed, I feel the need to get a project going. Lately I've been eyeing a corner of my room where stuff tends to accumulate. I've decided I'm going to turn that corner into my personal reading corner.
So I did research and saw beautiful pics online of reading corners. Basically, you need a comfy reading chair, a lamp, an end table, a throw or a pillow, and a pouf for your feet. I went on Ikea's website and ordered most of what I needed and was hoping to pick it up through their new curbside pickup, but it wasn't available, so I'm having it delivered and it will take a minimum of 6 weeks!!
Oh well, it will give me time to rid that corner of all that stuff and prep it for when my chair, lamp, and table arrive.
Happy reading y'all. Stay safe and take care of each other.

It's Monday! What Are You Reading? is a place to meet up and share what you have been, are and about to be reading over the week. It's a great post to organize yourself. It's an opportunity to visit and comment, and er... add to that ever-growing TBR pile! So welcome in everyone. This meme started with J Kaye's Blog and then was taken up by Sheila from Book Journey. Sheila then passed it on to Kathryn at the Book Date.

Love what you are doing in making yourself a library corner. Hope we get a photo when it is finally done! Will give you time though as you say to get rid of the rubbish. I like a new project too.
ReplyDeleteA reading corner sounds great!!
ReplyDeleteTake care, and enjoy your week.
Reading corner sounds like a nice idea. Maybe the shipment will come earlier than the six weeks. You can hope.
ReplyDeleteI really like the cover to Two Rivers and am glad to find it in my Kindle Library. :-)
It sounds like you are really enjoying the Cox series. It is still tempting me!
Have a good week and continue to stay safe at work.
I loved the Cox series! I hope you get to read it.
