Is it Sunday? Really? It’s been a trying week. The Girl was sick all last week so I took two days off to keep her home. Normally, it’s a nice break but I had gotten a flu shot right before that and I wasn’t feeling all that hot myself, so we spent a lot of time on the couch, watching Under the Dome. I am all caught up now but when is the finale? My DVR doesn’t show an episodes for the next three weeks. Did I miss it?

On another TV note, American Horror Story, Season 3 starts on October 9th. I can’t tell you how excited I am. It looks like ALL kinds of crazy and I am ready for it.

The past week has been difficult with The Girl being sick, but The Teen was also causing me grief which made the week a very unproductive one. Not much in the way of writing but there are a few reviews that I hope to write tomorrow and of course, I’ve been reading.

Perhaps this week will be more normal? Maybe, maybe not. Callbacks are this week. Hopefully, their names will be on the list when it’s posted this Tuesday. The Teen has a choir concert in the middle of it all which makes for some creative juggling as far as the schedule goes. Do I ever have anything new to report when it comes to our crazy schedules? Nope, I guess not. Some days I can’t even keep track of it all.

What am I reading?

I am reading Doctor Sleep and loving it quite a bit. I have to tell you though, it could be a stand alone novel even though technically it’s  sequel to The Shining. It’s distinctly its own story which is not what I was expecting but find that it works here.

I am also reading The Interestings and I am a little bit in love with it right now. It’s the kind of book that I can see revisiting more than once.

What am I cooking?

I am making chili, even though it’s 86 degrees out. I also made up a batch of cornbread, both gluten-free and the normal kind and there will be hot dogs too. Chili, dogs, cornbread. All sounds good.

What am I watching?

Not a darn thing. I spent the entire morning running errands (Halloween costumes, the grocery story, etc.) and right now The Girl just settled in to watch Cars 2 so I will probably not get to watch anything unless I head to my room and then you know how that goes. I’d end up cleaning the closet or something so no, I’ll hang out on the couch instead.

What are you up to? Or…since I am so late with this, what did you do today?
