Just a peek into my last few months,

In the next few posts, I will try to share all the books I’ve read and the things I’ve made over the summer until the current  WIP. Since my son moved in and we now have a truck we go shopping a lot which takes days if not weeks to recover from. The ride over the hills is rough no matter what vehicle you use, it seems.

Most recently we took a trip to Reno to visit friends and family. It was due to a family member who was to go into surgery. But that didn’t happen. Instead, it became more visit for fun than support. The truck is supposed to be a club cab but only if you are very miniature people–or luggage. So only two of us get to ride at a time. Good thing there is a good CD player.  But the trip wore us out anyways.

I have been adding to my collection by more oldies and goodies. First of all, they are cheaper by far, but also because I want these just in case my memory goes away. Music will bring me back. At least that’s my theory. New ones include John Denver, The Supremes, Michael Jackson (Thriller, the main call to my soul, still gives me chills and creeps me out!) I know there are others but I am too tired to get up and find my CD carrier and confirm. And, I have a million reviews to write and knitting to share so… That’s all you get for now.

Oh, I’ve been binging the usuals as the living room TV doesn’t get real TV and I try to be in the LR to knit. This moment nearing the end of season six of Game of Thrones (Battle of the Bastards.) I watch everything, the commentary is after the actual and then deleteds and other features. I’m thorough. Walking Dead is next and I’m on the next to last season. I do watch the current seasons, so I do know that this is Rick’s last show this next Sunday. I’m curious to see what happens next. I love long series shows. My son is making me watch Breaking Bad soon. Not sure how I will feel as I don’t see a reason to glorify drug dealers no matter what their circumstances–others have had similar and worse situations and didn’t go there.

Okay, so this is all the set up I would normally put in my book reviews but Amazon wants purer reviews than I like to write to keep myself informed when I read them in the future. I think what is going on in my life bleeds into my reading experience. If life is uncomfortable I get bored or angry with certain kinds of books. If it is exciting I get bored with books easily, too. So … Get ready!
