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 one of the worst weeks we've had in a while. Little Boy was running fever last weekend. Last Sunday night was the last time he ran fever. The Big Kids started running fever on Sunday. I kept Little Boy home on Monday. I did a medication run Monday afternoon. Tuesday, we stayed home from my parent's house and did my grocery run. Tuesday afternoon I started running a fever. Wednesday, Husband took Little Boy to school for me and picked him up. Big Boy was finally fever free. I ran fever again Wednesday night. Husband took Big Boy to his nature school homeschool class on Thursday. Big Girl ran fever at least once a day each day. I am quite sure we have had the flu. We never went to the doctor because if it was the flu there was nothing they would do for us besides tell us to treat our symptoms. Little Boy only had fever. Big Boy had fever and diarrhea. Big Girl had fever and cough. I have had fever, cough, and congestion. All of us have had headache with fever. Husband took the boys to baseball practices on Thursday night, but Big Girl missed all of her practices and activities this week. Two of the kids actually have regular checkup appointments this coming week. Saturday was my 15th Blogoversary. I just didn't have the energy to do anything to celebrate it.

Goodreads description--Two storm chasers find a love that could blow them away in this electric debut romance.Wedding photographer Sloane Michaels might spend most of her year running after brides, but she lives for the six weeks each spring she chases tornadoes instead. When the prestigious magazine Nature Shots announces a cover contest, Sloane knows that winning could be the chance she needs to break up with taffeta for good and establish herself in landscape photography.
The last thing she needs is a distraction in the form of reckless “Wild Wes” Talbot. A legend among storm chasers, he’s been Sloane’s close, personal frenemy for the last decade and is the man to beat for the cover contest.
Sloane isn’t surprised when Wes gets in an accident that jeopardizes his season. But with an active weather pattern emerging, she doubles down on her need to beat Wes fair and square, and begrudgingly invites him to join her for the remainder of the season.
As they race through hail, high winds, and stormy skies, Sloane realizes that Wes might be more than the rich, flirty, Texas wildcard she thought she knew — and that the feelings blooming between them are more charged and dangerous than the storms they’re chasing.
