What I'm Reading This Week #34
Hello you sassy beast! Ready for another flip flappin' fantastic weekend? Yes indeedy, Ally Sheedy. It's been a week of working ahead for me as I try to work on ideas for holiday posts. I know, no one is ready for Christmas but spit balling stuff is actually getting me excited for the season. I like to try to give myself the month of December off from writing new posts (except updating weekly happenings) so all I have to do is respond if needed. It lets me take a little mental break during the holidays to try to enjoy what I can then hop back into the new year hopefully rested and ready to roll. We did book our 30th anniversary trip, which is the same one we had to cancel this year and of course got travel insurance. It's just nice to have something to hopefully look forward to and it makes you go "where the heck did 4 1/2 years go?" because it seems like just yesterday we were celebrating our 25th. Do people even celebrate their 30t...
I know what you mean about not tracking just yet. I am always a bit up in water weight after a trip so it's nice just to eat healthy again and let my body adjust back to that before being too concerned about all the specific numbers.
ReplyDeleteYeah, we're not used to eating that much sodium in the form of deep dish and burgers so I don't even bother weighing in or tracking that first week back. I just want to get back into the groove and then focus on that stuff.
DeleteI have a few long running favorites - Supernatural, Bones, Castle, Walking Dead. And a few newer shows that I enjoy too like Sleepy Hollow and Gotham. I have to say though that, almost across the board, this season has been weak. Or maybe it's just me.
ReplyDeleteI'm more of a weekend or one night getaway person than a true vacation person, so I don't need to book very far in advance.
No, I think you're right. I don't know if it's the sophomore slump on a few or writers are phoning it in on some shows. Let's hope it corrects itself soon!
DeleteI love Criminal Minds. I knew they were doing a "throw back" last night but I had no idea they were going to do that to Gideon. It makes sense, but it's still sad. I do like Reid's hair longer, too, and I think Garcia is looking good. Not a big fan of the newest addition, however.
ReplyDeleteAs far as long running shows go, I still watch CSI, but it's not a big deal if I miss it. I watched SVU for years, but not so much this past year. I like NCIS - I think I will always watch that as long as Mark Harmon stays on it.
Yeah I knew they were doing a throwback but for some reason didn't see that coming. :-\ Garcia is lookin' fine these days! I'm indifferent to JLH. I think they're purposely not giving her many lines (she doesn't seem nearly as involved as Jeanne Tripplehorn whom I liked). She's pregnant IRL now so we'll see how they deal with that. Likely big purses and tables.
DeleteI think we stopped watching CSI after Grissom left but the few episodes I've seen with Ted Danson, he seems to fit in well.
