Welcome to my monthly wrap-up for November 2021.
November started off on a good note, as it was time for me to count down to the start of my vacation leave. I am officially on vacation after not taking any for the past two years. So, I am relaxing mostly and enjoying not having to wake up early and preparing for the stresses that come with work.
Things were going great, but then a crazy driver thought my vehicle was too shiny and pretty, so he chose to rearrange the bumper. The van was parked, not in anyone’s way, but he drove off the road, plowed into the vehicle parked in front of mine. The impact from that blow subsequently pushed the vehicle into my van. So, know I face the stress of dealing with the insurance company to get the funds needed to carry out the repairs.
I took part in the HOHOHO Readathon hosted by Caffeinated Reviewer, which took place between November 18 to 30. I read five books for the readathon.

I’m sorry to hear about the car wreck, I hope repairs go smoothly.

Thank you.
Ah man, that does really sour a vacation. Hopefully, it will not take too long or too much of your vacation time.
Wow, way to go on the HoHoHo Readathon and the rest of the month’s reading numbers. I see you have One Christmas Wish for December. A sweet one! Enjoy your holiday and also your December reading, Nadene.
Oh no! Sorry to hear about your car. Hopefully the insurance company cooperates quickly!
I hope so too. Thanks.
Oh, car accidents are never fun, even ones where no one was injured. It’s a hassle and an expense even when it’s not your fault and there’s insurance. Hope you have an easy time of it.
I need to try that Brenda Novak after reading your review and seeing your 5-stars! You had a great reading month. Hope you enjoy the resto of your vacation!
