Reading Log 2020 for MarksvilleandMe

I wanted to keep a running log of everything I read and finish in 2020 this year as well. Mind you I have several books going at a time some for church, myself, and for reading with my children so there will be quite a mix here as well as with my local reading club. With the way things have changed this year my reading time has gone down while my teaching at home has been called forth. Below you will find what I have finished as well as where to find them if you are interested in adding them to your list. You can also check out what I read in 2019 here. I didn't read nearly as much as I wanted to. 2020 was really different for everyone. For me that meant reading many papers, books, and sites with the girls to keep them up with their school work remotely. On a good note we all learned together. We logged in many hours on the computer looking up things that were interesting and learning more indepthly on items we thought the kids should know more about.

Getting things back in order

*This post may contain affiliate links. Read my disclosure policy here.



Since we have settled in our apartment, we have been slowly replacing furniture from all of the stuff that was lost or left behind before we became homeless due to my husband's accident. Most we have gotten free along side the road, like this desk from when our new neighbors moved and had this out for free. We snatched it up quickly but it has been sitting in our bedroom with things stacked on top of  it for sometime. 

Well the time has come to turn the desk  back into a useful piece of furniture and get more organized. With this being said I like to have a base for my computer so what when I move it around I don't scratch up the surface of my desk. I was able to find this 33'x14' PU Leather desk mat at Amazon. I had to look up PU Leather to find out what it meant as I had always heard it said but had never really knew what it was. Searching on the internet for things can sure be interesting to say the least. 

My desk still has a long way to go. The pictures were actually taken with my husband's laptop which is 15.6' as opposed to mine of a different brand but same size for those wondering how their computer may look on it. I will of course be adding my sorting baskets, stapler, etc to this desk to get the look I want to achieve and then it is all business, or lately mostly teaching school work, but that is a whole different kind of conversation.
