Last week was much better than the week before. No minor disasters, and a small snowstorm on Friday. Not too bad at all! Thanks to things being postponed due to rampant disease, I spent most of my evenings at home, reading, and watching Dune, which came out on DVD on Tuesday. I did go out … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: January 16, 2022

Happy New Year! I hope all of you had a safe new year's celebration, and that you didn't indulge too much and end up feeling awful yesterday morning. Thanks to an incoming winter storm, I spent New Year's Eve at home alone again. The forecast stated that the snow would probably start around 10:00 on … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: January 2, 2022

Busy, busy week last week! As I expected for the last week before Christmas. Work was hectic but should be slowing down after the New Year, so I'm looking forward to that. But after all the busyness, I spent Christmas weekend at my parents' house with them, my grandmother, and my sister's family. We had … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: December 26, 2021

Okay. Weird week. It started out well enough. Monday was fine. On Tuesday I went to J&S's house to celebrate J's birthday, which was fun even if their kids were extra squirrely. Then Wednesday came along. I walked outside on Wednesday morning, and it was weirdly warm and humid. Like it might be on a … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: December 19, 2021

Late update today for two reasons: I went over to my friends' house last night for one reason, and eded up staying over for another reason-- to watch the NCAA Division I volleyball tournament, because Nebraska was playing Texas in the Elite Eight. The game didn't start until 9:00, and while I usually just listen … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: December 12, 2021

Quiet week around here. Also, no snow. I'm still irked about that. We're nearly a week into December, and there's no snow! What's up with that? It gets dark so early, but there's not cold weather to go with it, and it's super dry-- enough so that the state got Red Flag alerts into the … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: December 5, 2021

I traveled this week. Weird. I didn't go far. Just to my parents' house, and that's only about a two-and-a-half-hour drive, but still. It was the farthest I have been from home in two years. I had forgotten how tedious that drive can be, and how frustrating it is when you come upon a couple … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: November 28, 2021

Remember last weekend when I said I thought it would be a nice, quiet week? Yeah, that didn't happen. This past week was super busy at work. But at least I got a lot done at home, even if I felt like I was running in circles at work all week. I'll be doing a … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: November 21, 2021

It's been a rather gloomy week around here, with cold temperatures, rain, and a bit of snow. I was happy to see the snow, even if there was too little of it and too much wind for it to actually collect. But it was a reminder that winter is on its way, and that makes … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: November 14, 2021

So my week was taken over by British television. Not that that's particularly unusual for me, as British television is On Brand for me, but I hadn't actually intended it to happen. I discovered that the adaptation of Ann Cleeves' book, The Long Call would be available on BritBox, so I got the one-week trial, … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: November 7, 2021
