What's Happening...(09-28-19)

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 as far as week's go, no one (pet or human) passed away or feel apart so I'm taking it as a win. I have spent more time that I wanted to helping my Gpa look for a new car because he wanted to trade one of his in.  He didn't need one and after going back and forth he has yet to get one so I hope whatever wild hair he had went South.  

We have been enjoying the new television season.  "This is Us" and "Law & Order: SVU" are back and we enjoy both.  We are also liking the new season of "American Horror Story:1984."  I've recorded some other new ones and will get to them eventually.  I'm obsessed with "Masked Singer" which is REALLY stupid and I watch mainly because I can record it and fast-forward through all the annoying stuff.  I want Rottweiler to win - imagine that!    We will be watching "Creepshow" on Shudder this weekend.  We also watched the new "Shaft" movie the other night which we found pretty entertaining.

I'm still plugging away on my Monsterathon.  I am pleased to report I have completely terrorized the town I grew up in - take that!  It has a population of about 3,738 and I've now terrorized 4,686.  YAY! 

This weekend I hope to get some reading done as always.  That, watch tv, movies and football. I'll also be visiting Gpa and picking up a used dryer in said terrorized town (it didn't die this week - it's been slowly dying for months).  Here is the main book that needs finished and then for once, I don't know what I'll pick up next.  Let me just tell you I am finding this YA horror pretty chilling.  Rosa is a 10 year old not to be messed with.  She could give Damien a run for his money.


I picked up a few books from the library this week and man, did all the Overdrive holds come in at once.  Here's my rather huge and unmanageable library haul this week.  Now that I see them, I'll probably end up picking up "Bunny" or "No Judgments" next.



And finally, here's Cassius's 2nd Instagram modeling pose:


Bandana Collection #2:  Cassius is exploring in one of his faves - a yellow, black and white Snoopy and Woodstock one.

Hope you all had a great week.  What are you reading and watching???

  1. Ooh, new TV season time! I would love your reports on American Horror Story 1984, that's one I think my husband would really like. And haha, glad to hear it's not just me who has Overdrive holds come in all at once. I think the books all conspire to become available at the same time :P

  2. I saw a few minutes of Masked Singer and I think networks are really getting desperate for new ideas, lol. Seeing Bunny in your pile reminds me that I want to track down a copy. Not that I have any time to read it soon!

    1. Yes they are. It's one of those shows I record and fast forward through a lot. I think the judges are super annoying.

  3. A good looking haul and not a bad week. I just wish it would cool down a bit but no we are still in the 90s. Maybe by then end of this week, it will be cooler. Have a wonderful week and enjoy those new reads!

    1. We should have a cooldown by next weekend they are saying. I just don't want it to turn winter overnight.

  4. Haha Monsterathon sounds fun. :) And I'm trying to get some reading done this weekend too, I've been slacking so much!

    That looks like a scary read. Messed up kids are scary lol.

    Looking good Cass!

  5. Congratulations on your continued monstering! I'm very impressed by your scaryness! Aww Cass is so cute in his Snoopy bandana! I'm reading a non fiction book about shark attacks and finishing watching season 15 of Deadliest Catch. Next up, I have lots of Gold related shows to catch up on!

  6. Isn't that the truth about all the books coming in at once!? Cassius is beautiful.

  7. I cannot wait for your review of My Sister Rosa because everything you just said up there in your post: exactly! The Masked Singer just started here (as in the Australian version) and it is utterly cracked and compelling. Lindsey Lohan is our international judge and the poor thing doesn't know enough Australian celebs for her guesses.

    1. Poor Lindsey. Seems like they may have set her up to look more stupid than she looks already at times.

  8. I love The Masked Singer! My sister and I watch it together, texting back and forth.

    1. It would be fun to text during it. So many theories.

  9. I really need to start Creepshow today, too. I've been obsessively watching baseball, and I need some creepy tales.

  10. Cass might have a future in modeling...just saying :) Why is it that all of the library holds always come in at the same time. Is this a rule or something? My grandmother decided she was going to get a car and start driving when she was around 90. She couldn't get out of the house without help and had never driven but she was determined for a bit. Hopefully, Grandpa has it out of his system. Have a great week, Barb!

    1. Gpa didn't get the car. He didn't want to give that much. He still drives locally but actually takes his test over each year so the family can't complain...but we do anyway.

  12. The cover to Mostly Dead Things cracks me up every time I see it. 😁

    You cannot get more stylish as a dog when wearing Snoopy and Woodstock! 🐾✨

    I hope you had a great start to your week, and that is stays calm. 🌞
