Weekly Wrap Up (Dec.30 - Jan.5)


Well have we all recovered from our New Year's Eve festivities? Are we back to work if you took some time off for the Holiday Season? Are the students getting ready to head back to skool on Monday? Are you still writing 2018 down on everything?

 

Enough of those questions and let's move on to the most pressing question on my mind right now... How do you have a pair of underwear? :unsure: Like do you say I need to grab a clean pair of underwear? Do you grab two, or one? So how is it a pair?

 

While you are trying to wrap your mind around that one, let's see what the blog brought us all this week!

A warning: Kabal is actually book 3 of The King's Mate  series, you can't read it without reading the other two.

I was curious all of a sudden - never thought about it until now, so thanks @wildone and Val - so I asked Mr Google. 

 

This answers both your questions:
