It's Sunday Post time! This is hosted by the awesome Caffeinated Book Reviewer and gives us all a chance to recap our week.
What I Got:
Nothing! I need to concentrate on the books I have so it's nice to have an empty shelf every once in awhile.
Currently:
Reading: An Unforgiving Place by Claire Kells and Agatha Christie's Secret Notebooks by John Curran
Listening: Nightshade for Warning by Bailey Cattrell
This week was pretty nice and normal. Will's numbers are a bit lower but are still holding steady and he's feeling pretty good. We have 13 weeks left until the end of treatment which is hard to believe. It's a bit scary to think of not having weekly check ins but it will be fantastic to be done. He'll still have physical therapy and a few other things as well as month check ins at clinic for awhile but in 13 weeks no more chemo! Now we just have to figure out what "normal" is again.
I've been obsessively playing Disney Dreamlight Valley on the Switch. I don't really get caught up in video games very often but this has nice low stakes and doesn't involve fast reflexes - plus it has Disney characters! - so it's perfect for me. I've been having a lot of fun with it though my reading has taken a hit.
That's about it. Other then video game playing and doctor visits it's been mostly dog classes and classes for Will and that's about it.
Have a great week and happy reading!
Haha empty shelves are nice- you can always fill them up, right? :) Glad there's light at the end of the tunnel for Will's chemo- this has been such a long road for you guys. I hope the week ahead is a fabulous one!
ReplyDeleteA normal week feels good, doesn't it? Hopefully the 13 weeks flies by and you can find your normal again. Have to say I've never played a video game and only tried a few games on my phone for very short periods. I just never caught the bug for that kind of gaming. Now put a board game or deck of cards in front of me, and I'm all in! :) Hope you have a terrific week and have time to read a good book.

You sound pretty busy, still, though some games always helps the time pass enjoyably.
ReplyDeleteHope you had a wonderful, relaxing week. I need to take a break from requesting too! I just need the willpower. Here's my SP: https://bonniereadsandwrites.com/2022/10/30/sundaypost-football-noahs-ark-and-tomatoes/
ReplyDelete13 weeks will be over before you know it! It wil be so exciting to finally be done with chemo! I have been hearing a lot about this Disney game. My daughter will be home with her switch soon so I may have to look into it.
ReplyDeleteHope the 13 weeks fly by real quick and that everything goes smoothly! You all need a bit more normal and hope you can get back to a somewhat new normal. Have fun with your video game! Sounds like a nice way for you to relax.
ReplyDeleteI only got one book this week but it was an extremely anticipated 2023 read! :)
Have a great week and happy reading!

Week in Review
I like the photo of the empty shelf but now I want to know what is in that bottle! haha
ReplyDeleteSuch good news about Will. He has been such a trooper about the treatment and I am so glad it's about to end.
We were watching Earth to The Moon last week - an HBO special which is pretty good. Have you seen it?
It is a good feeling when we clear away some of our own physical books. Happy that Will is rounding the corner and you all will have a new normal to look forward to in 2023.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh--y'all are almost in to the single digits for chemo! That is so fantastic!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad Will is doing better. I love the empty shelf! I need to concentrate on the books I have too.
ReplyDeleteEmpty shelves are room for growth. New ideas. I'm glad things are going well and the treatment is nearly finished. I hope 2023 is a fantastic year for you all. Happy Halloween!
ReplyDeleteAnne - Books of My Heart This is my Sunday Post
I'm glad Will is doing better, and I know you all can hardly wait until his chemo is done!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy those empty shelves, and have fun catching up with some of the books you own. I should put myself on a book-buying hiatus, but I'm terrible at sticking to book bans. Still, I have a ton of unread books on my physical shelves, let alone my Kindle library.
Have a happy Halloween, and a great November!
The end is in sight for chemo, so good. I don't dare take up a video game as I know I'd play it compulsively. Nice to have empty shelves.
ReplyDeleteI know 13 weeks can seem like such a long time and it's be here before you know it! I'm so happy to hear that there's an end in sight for his chemo and I hope his numbers continue to stay stead and that he continues to improve! All the good vibes, thoughts, and prayers to him during these last critical weeks in his treatment!

I'm glad you had a good week. I hope this is another good one.
ReplyDeleteI'm happy to hear Will is feeling pretty good, and thirteen weeks should go by pretty quickly especially with the holidays being in the middle of it. The holidays always seem to speed up time for some reason. 🤗
ReplyDeleteThere are a couple of games I have wanted to play on a Switch, but Baz won't let me use his. Ha ha. His friend owns an arcade that has a gaming sales section, so I have him on the alert for a good used deal coming into the store. ☺
I hope you had a fun Halloween and a great start to the week! ☀
It's fantastic to imagine that Will only needs thirteen more weeks of treatment! That's something to celebrate.
ReplyDeleteI'm happy you had a good week.
