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: Spring is here! I spend evenings out side on the front porch with my kitties.
On The Idiot Box: As, you know, a lot has changed for me in the last two years. Sadly my obsession with TV has been put on hold. However, I have got my husband addicted to Game of Thrones. We caught up on all the seasons in time for this season's premier. It's a gritty, gritty show but I loves it!
Weekly Reads: I'm still reading Dune for the Read Along and Book Club. So far so good. I'm also working on Cress and loving it. I kind of struggled with Scarlet a little but Cress is awsomeness!
Crazy Kitties: My Siamese featured in the picture for my Sunday Salon posts is getting a little old. :( She takes things calmly and patiently. Our new kitty, on the other hand, is young and impetuous. She runs around the house like a maniac leaping off walls and skidding around corners.
This Week: We finally got some renters in our basement apartment and I've also been working in the yard cutting down tree after tree. So Tired!
Movie of the Week: I saw The Age of Adeline on Tuesday...Meh. I really wanted to love it but it was only so so.
Food Talk: Sadly my diet and I are at odds with each other so I've gained weight and am eating quite dreadfully. Oh well, life ebbs and flows...like my weight. ;) I'm always pinning delicious recipes on Pinterest but don't try them very often.
Soccer Sightings: My biggest "I do not want to confess this to be blogging buddies". I have not been watching soccer. I know, I know! I'm shocked too. I had to cut the channel that showed the games because I couldn't afford it. I still follow my boys on line but it's just not the same. Sigh! One day I'll get back to them, right?
Plans For The Week: Keep working on the yard and spend more time reading. I deserve some freaking lazy reading time. Can I get and AMEN?!
Reading FTW! :D I've got mixed feelings about going to see The Age of Adeline--on the surface it looks good, but I have a feeling I may not like it. So I'm going to probably only rent it a few months from now instead of seeing it in theaters.
ReplyDeleteYeah it wasn't that impressive. Definitely wait to rent it.
DeleteAMEN! :) I hope you find time to fit in some soccer watching too. We also got rid of much of our cable channels so I can't even invite you to come here and see them!
ReplyDeleteYeah, cable is just too expensive. Don't they know with netflix and hulu and a little thing called the internet that they're not going to be able to charge that much anymore. Sheesh
DeleteTv shmeevee. I only watch when I'm folding laundry. Don't miss it at all!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I thought I'd really miss it. There's some shows I want to see what happened and what's going on but mostly I don't really miss it.
DeleteYou saw Age of Adaline on Tuesday too? Is that why you couldn't come with us? We missed you! I'm sorry you didn't like it very much. I liked it quite a bit. And, your Siamese sounds like my Tigger and Dax, and your kitten sounds like my Eddy. Crazy cats!
ReplyDeleteYeah the age of cats determined their attitude for sure.
DeleteThe Idiot Box and I don't get along at all, which is a blessing, I suppose. I just don't watch the darn thing at all. I always end up picking up a book, even when I fully intend to watch something. Also, everyone deserves more lazy reading time!
ReplyDeleteI wish I picked up books over tv all the time but that's not always the case.
DeleteAmen! Hope you're able to squeeze in some reading time soon! I read while I'm on my exercise bike, which has the added benefit of actually making me want to exercise! That's my only dedicated reading time, so I try to fit it in every day. Good luck with the yard! Sounds like a huge project, but bet it will be worth it once you're finally done!
ReplyDeleteI should exercise while reading but I got rid of my exercise bike. Stupid me.
