I'm Here, I'm Here!

Oh my goodness.  December has been a crazy month.  I mean, it's always chaotic with Christmas and everything that goes along with that, but it's also been absolutely nuts at work.  I've been doing a lot of day shifts so I get home and I'm just exhausted.

But, I wanted to pop over and give you all some sign of life.  And, I have another swap to show off.  For the Broke and Bookish Secret Santa, I signed up for the two book swap.  And my partner spoiled me!  Shipping dates are kind of open ended in this swap.  You just have to mail your package no later than December 15, so it was  a nice surpries to get mine over a week early.  Here's a picture of my treasures:

Two books from my reading list chocolate, coffee AND cute pins! Love it all! #TBTBSanta rocks!

Amanda from Fig and Thistle had my name and the package she sent was awesome!  She sent me Madd Adam by Margaret Atwood- one of my favorite authors and The Bookman's Tale which is a bibliophile mystery- one of my favorite subgenres.  And if that wasn't enough, she also sent a package of coffee, some chocolate and the cutest little pins.    I forgot to take pictures of what I was sending my partner. But she got two books off her list, some peppermint hot cocoa, and a candy bar too (same brand but different flavor of what Amanda sent me). 

I'm also in the midst of opening my 12 Days of Christmas pressies  and will be sure to post a pic when that's done.  It's been so nice to have something to look forward to when I get home from work each day.

Hope you all are surviving the holiday season and hopefuly I'll be back in the blogger groove soon!
