Sunday Sum-Up: May 21, 2023

May 21, 2023May 20, 2023 / Kim @ Traveling in Books / 8 Comments

Stressful week. Things were forgotten. Fortunately, no mistakes were made. Or if there were, they were minor mistakes. Will next week be less stressful? It had better be! A couple of things will be resolved on Monday, so there's that. Also fortunately: the forgotten things were definitely not critical- there were two blog-related things I … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: May 21, 2023

Another halfway decent week around here. We finally got a bit of rain, which we've desperately needed, since we're going into the second or third year of drought. It was nice to have a couple of misty, rainy days that ended with a bit of sun. Hopefully, we'll get more rainy days next week. They're … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: May 7, 2023

Last year in the spring, my car started making a, shall we say, interesting noise when the weather started warming up. I took it to the repair shop and they said, "We don't see anything wrong", so I kept driving it in spite of the weird noise. 'The car is getting old,' I thought. 'It's … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: April 30, 2023

Last week was a lot. A lot of things are going on (mostly fun ones), but it was also just A LOT. Stressful, in the way that life throws unexpected things at you. Fortunately, the main stressor will be taken care of on Monday, so I'll have a lot of background stress taken away from … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: April 23, 2023

There must be some rule that says medical offices and their waiting rooms will have temperatures that are either too warm or just too cold for comfort. I spent most of the morning of my day off in two of those offices- the dentist for a biannual check-up, and then at the clinic for some … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: April 9, 2023

It's spring in Nebraska, so that means we've been having some interesting weather. Fortunately, we haven't had any tornadoes, but in my neck of the woods, it's meant 50-degree temperature swings in a single day and a nice windstorm that knocked my internet service offline (again). I'm not complaining about it, as March has given … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: April 2, 2023

Sunday Sum-Up: March 19, 2023

I've been going through the various apps on my phone and unsubscribing to things like YouTube channels I don't watch anymore, leaving Discord servers that I thought would be fun but turned out to be annoying, or unfollowing Tumblr blogs I don't care for anymore. It's been nice to get rid of the baggage that … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: March 19, 2023

I noticed recently that my vacuum cleaner hadn't been working as well as it used to, so I decided to investigate. I took some of the sections apart, cleaned them out, top to bottom, and finally realized that the lower air filter was the likely source of the problem and ordered a new one from … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: March 12, 2023

I did not, on New Year's Eve, make a resolution to be cozier in my little corner of the world, but that seems to be what is happening this winter. So way back in my college years, when I got my first apartment, I bought a floor lamp for my living room. It was nothing … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: January 8, 2023

Given that the last time I was sick was January 2020, I'd forgotten how long it takes for me to recover from a cold. It's not fun. I'd like to not do it again for a while. And I'm doubly glad that I've gotten both my Covid and flu shots. Obligatory Mina Photo: I pulled … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: December 18, 2022
