Mailbox Monday ~ August 28th

Welcome to Mailbox Monday, created by Marcia of To Be Continued, a place where readers share the books that came in their mailbox during the last week.

After several years of being on tour with different blogs as the monthly host, the Mailbox Monday Blog is now the permanent home for the meme.

This week started out fine but it was downhill from there. A routine trip to the dentist for a cleaning and an exam of a tooth that was a little sensitive turned into a root canal and serious infection by the weekend. Antibiotics and pain pills knocked me out for the last few days, and that is why I haven’t visited many blogs this past week. One would think this would give me lots of time to read, but it was just the opposite with no ability to concentrate.

I received a couple of books that I requested and a few new audio downloads.
