What's Happening...(06-08-19)

So I'm doing things a tad bit differently this year and will be combining all of my regular weekend posts.  This will enable me to add more content on Fridays and it is just starting to make more sense.  I'll still be linking up with Stacking the Shelves at Tynga's Reviews and Sunday Post at Caffeinated Reviewer.  Both blogs are awesome so make sure you check them out.

So you may have noticed there was no "What's Happening" post last week.  That's because too much was happening to post one :)  I had to go out of town on a day trip Friday for a meeting which was fine but on the way back I drove into the worst storm ever (well, maybe not ever).  There were torrential downpours as well as hail while I was on the interstate and I had to pull over one and sit for 20 minutes.  I NEVER pull over.  Then when I could drive, it was about 30mph for almost 20 miles.  I felt so lucky and blessed to make it home alive but it was emotionally exhausting.  To top it off, I got a call from Gpa while that was going on that he was headed to the ER and thought he was dying.  He is home now but it was a rough couple days topped off by Stupid Uncle (SU) antics.  Then this week lots of extended family was still calling wanting updates and complaining about SU.  Needless to say I'm ready for a weekend!

We did mange to watch a few things.  "Boar" is an Australian film Mr. Barb has been wanting to see for ages but despite being made in 2017 we could never find it to stream or purchase.  It finally released on Shudder as an exclusive Thursday so we got to watch it.  It wasn't awesome or anything but that giant homicidal boar was pretty impressive.  We also watched "When They See Us" on Netflix and it was kind of a tough watch but well made.  And I can't forget, we also watched "Captain Marvel" last weekend and it was tons of fun!

I feel like I'm behind on my reading already but here's what's on the stack for this weekend.  

I've also received a few books for review.  "A Lush and Seething Hell" and "The Girl on the Porch" are both horror books that caught my eye.  "Saving Exodus" is by the same author who wrote "Prey of Gods" which I ADORED and well, you all know how I feel about Hunter Shea so is it any real surprise I have his new one as well - "Slash."

BTW, a small Cass update.  Cass is doing fine.  He's eating and has been spending lots of time walking and playing.  I think the hardest time for him is the mornings because he knows he's going to be alone after Mom and Dad leave for work. Luckily we've both been able to stop by during our lunches to check on him.  

So I hope you all are having a good weekend.  Are you reading or watching anything good?  It sure is nice to be back!
