Weekly Reads (05/05/17)

So last Friday night was a doozy.  It started storming right about bedtime and Booker T wasn't having none of it.  About the time the stormed rolled out and he calmed down, another round would roll in. He even took 2 of his doggy Xanax and they didn't seem to phase him for some reason.  I was up and down with him most of the night and alternated between sleeping in the bedroom, or moving down to the living room.  He seems to do better downstairs.  Since I was already up most of the night, I finished up "Bate's Motel" and let me say it was an excellent end to the series even if I didn't like the outcome for one of my favorite characters - Alex.  The next day Booker was still bright-eyed and bushy-tailless but Mom, Dad and even Cass were dragging.  Booker was wanting to romp and play and we were looking at him like "Really dude!"

The cousins are finally out of Grandpa's.  There were a couple of incidents over the weekend and Grandpa put down some rules and they got mad and took off.  Oh well, I say Good Riddance. There's enough family to keep an eye on and make sure the little ones' needs are met and they are taken care of so I say let the adults figure things out for themselves.

We watched "Rings" the other night.  On the whole, it was a pretty decent addition to the series.  That girl coming out of the well is still pretty terrifying.  It stars Johnny Galecki as a professor though and I can't help but think of him as Leonard from "Big Bang Theory" so it was kind of hard for me to focus.

Mr. Barb graduates tomorrow and his college is about 90 minutes away so by the time we get down there and back, we've have made 3 trips in a week so I'll be worn out.  I'm hoping when we aren't dealing with that I can relax and read.  I've got some great books lined up.....

I'm almost through with "Invader Zim" which I grabbed from the library because I needed something light and it looked cute.  Hoping to dive into "You Were Here" next and hoping I get so engrossed that I can actually get another one read and out of the way before next Friday.

How was your week and what are you planning this weekend?  Hope everyone in the path of all the rain and storms the past week or so is staying safe.
