NOT back to school week. After six years of spending this week printing out syllabi, filling in my planner with due dates, and buying notebooks, pens, and pencils, I will not be. Instead, I have two book club meetings and three books to read that I was NOT assigned. So, aside from the under-employment, I'd say I'm pretty OK with it. :)

One of my two #bookGroups is tomorrow night and I've not touched the book. The problem? I want to go and see my friends and also simultaneously not feel guilty for not having even thought about reading the book. Yeah, no one but me minds but I do feel bad anyway.
Wonderful to have a new book group in our village #Kirkmichael in rural #Ayrshire. #books and #reading bring us together and welcome in #outsiders like me! #bookgroups
