Hi Everyone. Hope you had a good week. Mine was pretty quiet. We had a pool issue, a broken pipe, but Mr Wonderful was able to fix it (fingers crossed). He just finished it up and it will need to sit for twenty four hours before we can test it out. Thank goodness we found it was a backwash pipe, so we are able to run the pool. Other than that, I got on a reading binge…not reviewing…so I am playing catch up. I still have a few to go. We did hop over to Biloxi for a couple of days, but weren’t able to play any golf. I don’t know if I could have anyway, seeing it is so hot. We have had a week of severe weather and I am over it! I used to love the afternoon thunderstorms, but something seems different now. They don’t pass quickly and I think that me getting older makes them not so enjoyable any more. Right now we are watching some soccer, the US and Jamaica, and some national baseball playoffs, Florida and LSU. Well, I guess that’s about it, so see ya later and have a good week.

Hi Everyone. Mr Wonderful was out of town, so it was a quiet week for me. I binged on the Memorial Day Las Vegas week and Lucifer…again. Of course, I did some reading, some blogging and wrote some reviews. I have been doing great at keeping current on my reviews. I, also, now highlight in my ereader, instead of taking notes. By writing the reviews almost as soon as I finish reading, I find it so much easier, the novel and my feelings fresh in my mind. Sometimes, it’s hard to stop reading long enough to write the reviews. I have so many books on my currently reading shelf, which is…for the most part…review books. Sometimes I just can’t say no. I have also been trying some new authors through NetGalley and Book Sirens, and some books outside my favorite genres.

How about you? What would you like to share today?

Til next week, stay safe.

Hi Everyone. Hope you are all doing well. It has been a quiet week, with Mr Wonderful working the Pensacola Blue Wahoos home stand. We went out for free Frickles at Hooters, but they had so few workers that even though they were pretty empty, there was a fifteen minute wait time. Fuck that. Too bad. I love the view on the patio. Sooo, we hopped on over to Red Fish Blue Fish. A different view in the same vicinity. Had a couple of cocktails. There wasn’t a lot of customers, but the waitress forgot about us, sooooo, we stopped at Skye Pizza on the way home. Eric got a meatza pizza and I got a calzone. Another bomb for me. I love their calzones, but mine was burnt. 🙁 I don’t go out much and even though I had three bad experiences in one day, I still enjoyed my time at the beach and being out and about.

You can see more of Mr Wonderful’s YouTube videos on Fundimonium.

Watching the PGA Championship. Mr Wonderful and I used to live in Pittsford/Rochester, New York and worked the Championship one year. We got out early for practice in the 85th PGA Championship. Didn’t get many autographs. The players were pretty focused. We saw Freddie Couples and hung out, hoping to get an autograph, but security shooed us away. THEN, I got my sights set on Tiger Woods. I love the pics I got of him and the foggy course.

I have been a huge Freddie Couples fan forever. I got this close (so close I could almost reach out and touch him) and security chased me away.
Do ya see Tiger in the distance?

We love practice rounds, because we haul every camera we own to take photographs.
We got our signed poster.
A lot of reflection, but because of its location, it’s the best I can do on the fly.

We have our next appointment for the Covid booster scheduled for Monday. Two of our friends are out of town. Her mother is in hospice…and they both came down with Covid. He’s having a rougher time of it than his wife. Best it happened now, than in the beginning. We are all older and have some kind of health issue that puts us at risk.

Stay safe.

Hi Everyone. Be piddling around outside and in the house. A little of this and a little of that. It’s been a good week and the weather was great. A little sunshine, a little rain, and a cool down, that I don’t like so much. Today is bright blue sky, not a cloud in sight, and we started out in the forties. Bah, humbug. How was your week? Hope you lots in store for the unpcoming one.

Hi Everyone. May the luck of the Irish be with ya.

It’s been a laid back week. Lots of reading and I made myself catch up on reviews. I am pretty good at keeping up with them now, though I probably have some overdue ones buried in my email. I will be working on those, but concentrate mostly on keeping current.

We went out to one of our favorite Mexican restaurants and met some ex coworkers of Mr Wonderful’s. The food and company was great, seeing I still spend the majority of my time at home. I love it though. I am a bit of a loner and can easily entertain myself.

I plan on being in the pool in the next week or two. I know it will be a wake up call, but I think my body needs a shock, a wake up call, if you will.

Stay safe..

Hi Everyone. I missed last week, but I hope to become more consistent with my weekly update. I think it’s a great way to let you know what you may have missed with giveaways and reviews. I am trying to review every book I read this year and have been doing pretty good. I have been highlighting in my ereader instead of making notes in a spiral like I used to. I have arthritis in my hands and my writing becomes pretty messy pretty quickly.

I played golf for the first time in three years. It felt good. I even had some great shots and am looking forward to playing more before the intense heat hits. I am paying the price, though. It set off my allergies in a big way. I also have COPD and it caused a flareup. Gotta keep on keeping on, right? Just need some Prednisone and I’ll be good to go.

I let my pool go for a couple of months. I had to get the pump repaired and just got lazy. I have never let it get so green before and I won’t do it again. It’s easier to keep up with it than spend so much time trying to clean it up. How about some pics?

It’s not quite there, but pretty damn close. Wishing you a good week.

Hi Everyone. I have been bust going through closets, trying on clothes and messing around the house. I am doing some decluttering and I love when I can look in the closets and know what’s in there and where things are. I still have some drawers to go through and the office is…well, I’m not saying. LOL How about you? Do you do spring cleaning?

The pool is in dire need of cleaning, but I need the pool guy to come first. I have been putting it off, but, no more. I hope to get him in this week. Until then, Mr Wonderful and I are doing some yard clean and shed clean up. I am actually excited about it. 🙂

I was hoping the weather would be warmer, but I do remember Mardi Gras and the Senior Bowl, which we are watching right now, are usually pretty chilly. At least the sun is shining. Right now my computer say 52 degrees and I have my blankie keeping me comfy. What’s your weather like where you are at?

I have a couple of Book Trailers by Anita Dickason, a fabulous author.

I hope to see you during the week for reviews and giveaways. Stay safe..
