4:28PM Just had dinner and ready for my work out in a little bit. Have not really read much today since I just finished The Iron Daughter. And then my Spookfest read-a-thon is coming in a couple of days. So ready for that.

Susan I am so jelly that you get to go to the 11/2 game have fun and think of me! Aves is gonna be Optimus Prime, he originally wanted to be Superman but they did not have his size. Yeah I loved his light stick costume last year and so easy to do.

Hehe Alissa, a cupcake would be so cute. I hope y'all have a great Halloween! I love this holiday so much and the time of year as well.

10:40PM it was a pretty quiet day today for me. I think tomorrow I will make a trip to the book store, it has been awhile and it always feels like forever. LOL

Spookfest read-a-thon starts tomorrow. So that is exciting. I am starting with Dolores Claiborne. Looking forward to getting into that one. Getting ready to crawl into bed I think. I am really sleepy tonight! G'night GR!

HAHA It is my favorite book of all time. I have read it 3 times. The last time was in a group setting and it was a lot of fun to watch others experience the book as well. Here is my review on it. https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

9:00AM Planning a trip to the book store, I have a ton of books to try and get rid of, most are duplicates that my sister had brought to me this summer. So that will be fun because I have not been there is a long time it seems. Have a great day everyone.

Just watching some tv and I'm recording the new episode of The Walking Dead, I'm gonna watch it tomorrow night since it's on late tonight. In a while I'm gonna head up to bed and read.

Hope everyone had a good weekend.

11:44PM Wow today felt like a really long day to me and not sure why. I guess I was pretty busy today. Took the trip to the book store and that is always fun, then my son want to get a time for running the 40 so we did that too. He did the 40 in 49.3 sec. So that was pretty good. Then this evening we carved our pumpkins. And now I am gonna read a bit while the last of the laundry finishes.

Awww Susan I wish you were there with me today. I took in a box of books and got some good store credit. That makes me happy when that happens. I found some great books on the sales racks, they had a ton of hardbacks this time.

Alissa Patrick (apatrick12211) 4:22pm- half hour to go and then work is over!!! Mondays always make me so tired, so after putting Amelia to bed and cleaning up dinner, getting stuff ready for the next day, showering etc I will curl up on the couch with a blanket, my dog and see if I can read more of either Conversion Conversion by Katherine Howe or The Woman in White The Woman in White by Wilkie Collins

8:40AM Have stuff to do this afternoon. First we must get some food in this house, was such a tight week. UGH I hate when that happens. We are taking Aeverie out to Cici's this afternoon. He loves it there so much. Shared our pumpkins on Facebook for those of you who are my friend there. I think they turned out great. Have a video to do today, the last of Thursday Terror: Scary stories. I have a good one for today. Then I am gonna try and finish my book. We will see.

Janelle sorry you forgot your book this morning. It could be worse though, you could have taken it and then left it on the bus. Maybe that is why you left it at home?


message 12476: by Janelle (new)

Janelle | 347 comments Yes, I was in a hurry. Janie to leave it on the bus would be a nightmare! I'm reading 'Salem's Lot.....
12:15 pm and on my way home to do homework and read, read, read :-D

9:15PM Went out to dinner but skipped the groceries till tomorrow. LOL Have my coffee and gonna finish my book tonight.

Janelle that was my last Thursday Terror. It was for the month of October. I think the last one was the best though. Yea and being stuck during a snowstorm could be pretty scary.

9:39AM Well we had a great Halloween. My son took us out to lunch to start things, and then in the evening we all went trick or treating and then the H.S. football game after that. Wore me out, but that is good.

✨Susan✨ (suswelch) | 904 comments Made manicotti for the in laws. It was a big hit as were the trick or treaters. I was so happy to see so many homemade costumes. Thank goodness parents are getting back to creative basics instead of all the sexy stuff. November already?? Hard to believe. Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Corey | 1411 comments 8:45 p.m. Went to a College Basketball Game with my Dad, had a great time, the seats weren't very comfortable however, LOL! But yeah we had a good time, now I'm just relaxing in bed and gonna read for a bit, don't have any big plans tomorrow, we're supposed to get some snow tomorrow, which I'm not looking forward to, just be a good day to relax.

Hope everyone has a good night.

10:28PM Had kind of a lazy day today. After dinner and the games we went outside to throw the football, then switched to baseball. My son through a fast ball and it hit me on the wrist. All I can say is ouch and it cause broken blood vessels as well. It is much better now though.

Clocks set back over here.

9:58AM Having another lazy day and feel like getting out to o something, just don't know what. Maybe I will figure it out LOL. Reading Lone Wolf by Jodi Picoult, a buddy read with a Booktube friend. So far it is ok but nothing spectacular.

Do you have any Ellen Hopkins books Andrea? I always find those to be very fluid and easy to read and very thought provoking. If you like Mystery Lisa Jackson's "to die" series is pretty fast paced.


message 12490: by Andrea (new)

Andrea | 233 comments Thanks Heather. I don't have that book but I will definetely check it out.

Janie, I don't have any Ellen Hopkins books but I do have the first book in the To Die series by Lisa Jackson. I might have to give it a try.

I really need to get out of this slump.


message 12491: by ✨Susan✨ (new)

✨Susan✨ (suswelch) | 904 comments Andrea, the first To Die book is great! It should pull you out of your slump.

Went to the cowboys game yesterday. (Posted a picture). Even though we lost... it was quite an experience to see that unbelievable stadium. WOWZA.

Reading a great one right now, "Chiefs".

Corey | 1411 comments I had a really tough day today, I was supposed to go take the test for my Driver's Permit and I went to the DMV, and I didn't find out until I got there that they were closed, I couldn't believe it, I was so mad. and upset because I was so prepared to take the test. Now I have to reschedule to take it, part of me want's to throw in the towel and just forget it, but my heart's telling me not to give up, I'm just really overwhelmed.

9:02PM YUM had home made Fettuccini chicken alfredo and it was so good! Then had a good work out. Read most of the day and will read some more now before bed.

Susan so jelly that you got to go to the Cowboy game even though we lost. Was not impressed with Weedon at all. UGH

Corey don't give up, sometimes things just happen that we have no control over. Just take a few breathers and you will get there.

Enjoying the sound of the rain on the roof and getting some reviews written for my Oct. reads. Temps are dropping and fall is finally upon us. My oldest Son's wedding is happening at the end of the month so the next three weeks should be interesting. It's very exciting to have family coming in from all over the country.
