Sunday Post - 10/13/19

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.

This was a busy week. Tuesday I had a chiropractor appointment. The kids went to Grammy's for the day and my appointment was really fast so I killed it cleaning house when I got home. Folded and put away all the clothes. Deep cleaned our two bathrooms. Vacuumed and mopped all of the floors. Washed the shower curtains and bathroom mats. And I even did a deep look at our finances while watching some old episodes of Grey's Anatomy that I'm behind on. Wednesday I took Little Boy for a haircut. Oh man, I regret that. Not only did she nick his ear causing it to bleed, but she also gapped him TWICE. He looks like she was trying to give him a bowl cut. (Do you guys remember those?) And we're doing family pictures this coming Wednesday so there's that. But I can't fully blame her because he wouldn't be still despite me letting him watch some videos on my phone. Thursday was Husband's birthday. The kids and I went for an early walk, and then because the weather was so nice we played outside for two hours. Little Girl helped me making some cookies for him. My parents took us to dinner for Husband's birthday Thursday night. Friday I had to get groceries instead of Saturday. Saturday we went to Husband's cousin's wedding. So much going on. And we likely won't be slowing down much until New Year's at this point.

My annual "All Things Halloween" event started last 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.
