Sunday Sum-Up: November 28, 2021

November 28, 2021November 27, 2021 / Kim @ Traveling in Books / 5 Comments

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

Shakespeare. In the park. With the book club. That was my Saturday night, and it was fabulous. The local Shakespeare company performed Twelfth Night for their summer play, so a couple of the ladies from my book club and I went to see it in the park. It was a perfect evening for it: The … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: June 27, 2021

Another week of generally getting things done. I like these kinds of weeks. They're so useful. Next week: More getting things done! I've been wanting to put new art up on two of the walls in my bedroom, as the stuff that's been up has been up for a long time. I'm thinking of doing … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: May 9, 2021

Sunday Sum-Up: April 11, 2021

It's been a rainy week around here. The first couple of days of the week were sunny and warm, and then it clouded over on Tuesday, started raining Wednesday afternoon, and kept raining until Thursday night. Then it rained again on Friday night. It's all rain, rain, rain. But this weekend has been absolutely lovely. … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: April 11, 2021

Sunday Sum-Up: March 14, 2021

There were two themes to the past week: Wind and Rain. It was windy for the first part of the week and has been raining for a solid day, and will continue to do so for the next couple of days. That's March for you. Despite the wind, though, a friend and I went for … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: March 14, 2021

Quiet week around here. Sunny. Warm. Productive. Birthday-like. While it wasn't on the exact day of my birthday, I went downtown on my day off. I had two missions: go to the chandler to check out their new oatmeal stout candle, and then visit the adorable bakery in that neighborhood to buy myself a piece … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: March 7, 2021

Sunday Sum-Up, December 27, 2020

December 27, 2020December 26, 2020 / Kim @ Traveling in Books / 5 Comments

It's the last Sunday Sum-Up of 2020. Here's to hoping that 2021 is a better year than 2020 was. I had a good Christmas, as far as Zoom Christmases go. We got online together around 9:30 on Christmas morning, and once my parents got their laptop oriented so that they weren't silhouetted by the sun's … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up, December 27, 2020

I did not, in fact, end up with a hangover after overindulging in wine last weekend. But I was incredibly loopy on Saturday night, and though I was still coherent, I am quite thankful that my friends put up with my crazy texting. Otherwise, it was a decent week. A mix of good and bad … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: November 15, 2020

I voted about two and a half weeks ago. I received my mail-in ballot with not issues, filled it out, and dropped it off at the county election commission office. A few days later, I checked online to see if it had been accepted, and indeed it had. Hooray for a smooth voting process! And … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: November 1, 2020

Sunday Sum-Up: October 25, 2020

I had to take Sidney in for his vaccinations on Wednesday. He gets extremely stressed out when he goes to the veterinarian (read: angry and striking out at everything and everyone), so he has to be sedated. This means I drop him off early and pick him up a couple of hours later, after he's … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: October 25, 2020
