A blessed Monday morning to all.
Cloudy skies. And there are two low pressure areas which are still outside the Phil. Area of Responsibility (PAR) but this early it looks like it will rain again. It’s a good thing we are finally done trimming our plants and cutting the carabao grass yesterday. Gardening is a lot of work but one is happy when you see the immaculate lawn smelling of the earth and newly cut grass. We harvested calamansi too and got a bout a kilo. The two calamansi trees we have in the garden are presently bearing so many fruits. Heaven.
I was done with my Goodreads 2017 Reading challenge last August 20 finishing the 150 books I set myself to read. I’ve added about five more books since then. I am presently reading The House on Honeysuckle Lane by Mary McDonough, my first book of hers. Gosh, it’s full of Rumi quotes and one character was even named Rumi. I remember those earlier days when I used to write on my little notebooks several quotations from that writer. His works are still widely read until today. Reading is such a leisure that is so fulfilling. Give me a book anytime.
Last September 7 and 8, I got a total of more than 2,400 views alone on my post about Mama Mary. I guess since 2013 thereabouts, my stats always jump during Mama Mary’s birthday. Busy Google.

Heavens- that’s a lot of likes, Arlene! 🙂 🙂 I’ve never heard of a calamnsi fruit. Definitely not tropical enough around here.

Wow, 150 books? How long was the challenge?
My record so far is a little over 60 books in one year.
