First of all, Happy New Year! Kicking the year off with a late night blog post!

Second of all, I could totally live in a bookstore. Barnes and Noble has it all: Harry Potter, board games, crossword puzzles, and Starbucks. What more could one need?

Anyway, the day after Christmas I treated myself to a trip to the bookstore and I just wanted to share what I got!

Now tell me, how many husbands out there will agree to letting this come home? Mine did! 12 months of adorableness. 2018 is already looking great.

So of course I had to get a cat ball point pen to go with the cat calendar. The second pic here also gives a peak of the other items I got. There is a large print Sudoku book I got for my grandma and a book light I’ve been desperately wanting for ages now.

Now this book is what I am most excited about! My sister got this for my brother for Christmas and I knew I needed to get one for myself. I keep telling myself I need to write more, but we all know how difficult that can be. This book provides story prompts to really get the creative juices flowing. Here are a couple examples:

Some of the stories are serious while others are totally outlandish. If any of these turn out any good, I will definitely post them up here.

That’s everything I got on this trip to the bookstore, but I’m already itching to go back!

Hope you enjoyed this post! Again, Happy New Year! Let’s make 2018 the best one yet!
