Otherwise, it's hard enough to find time to write posts and get blog reading done, let alone do any maintenance or make any changes to your blog. But I've missed the past couple and I don't know if I'm going to get to it again the next time.

I...Yeah, we had a VERY nice time at Sawgrass Mills! I bought myself a blouse and a purse, and, OF COURSE, a book! I was inside Books-A-Million for a while, not sure what to pick. Finally, I settled on a book titled "The Path of the Yoga Sutras", by Nicolai Bachman. It's about the philosophy behind yoga, and is based on "The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali". Patanjali was a great Indian sage. It looks VERY interesting!<br /><br />Oh, wow, you guys had a temperature of 108F?! Yeah, I'm glad you stayed inside, especially since there was also smoke in the air, too! :)<br /><br />We're now monitoring the progress of Hurricane Irma, hoping and praying it doesn't come our way!<br /><br />Happy Labor Day!!

LOL <br /><br />Time is a factor for me with Bloggiesta too. I love the idea, but fitting it into the schedule is a challenge.<br /><br />I used to be an "off-the-cuff" blogger, but it just doesn't work for me anymore. There is still some content I have to wait to put in until near the last minute--like my weekend posts (which I want to get back to doing this month--if you haven't, you should check out my photos on today's post).<br /><br />You definitely don't have to have children to have a life outside of blogging. :-) I love that your husband drops you off at B&N for awhile. I think mine would probably come inside and sit at the little cafe if he wasn't browsing the shelves himself. Haha<br /><br />I hope you have a great time at Sawgrass Mills! Sounds wonderful. I wish we had a Books-A-Million here, much less anywhere within a 100 mile radius. I'm not even sure there is one on California<br /><br />I hope you are enjoying your weekend too. It's 108F here today and the sky is full of smoke from nearby fires. Trying to stay inside where it's cool and safe to breathe. <br />Literary Felinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13079276242303738719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31552114.post-15837170792397395302017-09-02T17:02:37.019-07:002017-09-02T17:02:37.019-07:00Eustacia - I think I may have unofficially partici...Eustacia - I think I may have unofficially participated once, but it was so long ago.

There's usually a small town or intimate community setting. And the protagonist is generally an amateur sleuth--although not always. They often contain humor. I don't know if I do the definition of a cozy justice, but I think that sums it up more or less. They are the lighter side of the mystery genre, if you will.Literary Felinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13079276242303738719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31552114.post-21377841718693404832017-09-02T16:33:59.973-07:002017-09-02T16:33:59.973-07:00Yes,,,thank you again very much.
