I've decided to revamp the Sunday Salon post! Mostly, because I'm not reading as much and since I'm not reviewing as many books...well, I need something to post, right? Plus I just like to get personal sometimes. So, here we go.
Weather Small Talk: Stupid Utah weather. It's been raining all week. Now I love me some spring rain but did the temperature have to drop 30 degrees? Sheesh! Last Sunday I turned the AC on this Sunday I've got the furnace back on.
On The Idiot Box: Still just watching Game of Thrones. Last week's episode was really lackluster. I'm hoping this week's episode is better.
Weekly Reads: I Finished two whole books. Yay me! I finished Cress and Lost Lake and enjoyed them both. I'm still working on Dune and am thinking of starting Elevated by Elana Johnson.
Crazy Kitties: Buns, my siamese is same old same old. She's getting old and I just realized the other day that she could die as soon as next year. How sad is that? Belly is still crazy. She loves to go outside but I only let her out when I'm with her and she doesn't think I go out enough.
This Week: We hauled away all the trees we cut down. That was exhausting. Then it rained and rained and I spent a lot of time reading.
Movie of the Week: No new movies but I did see (for the first time) the old 70's version of The Exorcist. I didn't find it all that scary but I did appreciate that back then that movie probably scared the crap out of people.
Food Talk: Today, as you know is Mother's Day. My mother in law is coming for dinner and loves peppermint pattys so I'm incorporating them in to a cake. I hope it turns out ok.
Plans For The Week: More yard work and reading.
I have loved the rain. Though I agree, the change in temperature is not nice. The cake sounds awesome! You should take a picture! :)
ReplyDeleteYeah, I love rain but the freezing cold not so much.
DeleteI remember the crazy Utah weather and don't envy you a bit! Of course, it's been doing nothing but rain here in SC for the past couple of days, but at least it's a warm rain. It's sad when our furbabies get old, but all we can do is make them comfortable and let them know how much we love them! Hope you had a great Mother's Day and your peppermint patty cake turned out yummy. :)
ReplyDeleteYeah, Utah weather is no fun.
DeleteI hate when our animals get old because I start dreading when they may pass away. I hope Buns stays with you for a LONG time.
ReplyDeleteAnd, I didn't think the old Poltergeist was that scary either. I want to see the new one and see if it's any scarier. I hope it will be (but not too much because I'm a wimp.)
Thank you. I hope shes' with us for a long time too.
DeleteYay Cress! I really like that series, too. And I love hearing about all the stuff you're doing around your house. It sounds like so much work but it bet it will look amazing when you're all done. :)
ReplyDeleteSo much work. I can't wait till it's all done and down to just regualr maintenance.
DeleteThe Exorcist! Back in the day they used to put subliminal messages in movies. Supposedly they had a number of uber creepy subliminal messages behind an already scary-for-its-time movie.
ReplyDeleteReally? I didn't notice a thing.
