The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba @ The Caffeinated Book Reviewer ~this meme was inspired in part by ~ In My Mailbox~ It's a chance to share News. A post to recap the past week, showcase books and things we have received and share news about what is coming up for the week on our blog.
Monday was a pretty normal day. I decorated the house for Halloween which the kids loved when they got up from nap/quiet time. Tuesday I let them put some window cling stickers up for Halloween which they loved too. I thought that would be a great, cheap, and easy way to include them in the decorating process without risking any breakable items. Then I took them to Grammy's house so I could get my hair done. It was a cut and color appointment, and I was there for about 3 hours. That's a long time to be in the chair, but it was nice to just be out and enjoy doing something for myself. Wednesday was again a normal day. Thursday we took Mom and Dad out for dinner for my Dad's birthday. Friday was normal. Saturday was grocery shopping and then we hauled the kids out for shoe shopping. Little Girl is getting to the age where she needs to try her shoes on to see if they're comfortable or not. And I wasn't 100% sure that I was getting the right size for them. Then we took them to get lunch at a place that has an indoor playground. They had a blast. I actually got to read a good bit more than normal on both Friday and Saturday which was super nice. (Be sure to enter my giveaway for Iron Gold linked below!)
My annual "All Things Halloween" event started Tuesday. This is my month-long event where I feature reviews from Halloween-y genres (fantasy, paranormal, supernatural, sci-fi, horror, mystery, thriller, and suspense). Over the last few years I've had mostly fantasy books as I just haven't been in the mood for much horror, but still...these are books that can get you in the mood for Halloween.

That's so cool that you spend the month focused on reviews revolving around themes to get you in the mood for Halloween. These past few years I haven't been into reading horror either and have mainly read fantasy. I always feel like it's because I'm a mood reader. haha.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you had a nice week, I hope this week is as pleasant.
