The past week was warm, warmer than it should be considering it’s springtime. Why can’t the weather be a gradual change? It would be so much nicer.
We had a lovely Saturday. We headed to the baseball fields to watch our little friend Addison play softball. It’s so cute watching kids play sometimes and lo, the coaches(parents?) have lots of patience with those little ones…
We headed to the farmers market afterwards and I got my mimosa and croissant before a stout at one place then another stout at another place. I was definitely ready for a nap after we got home. It was a lovely way to spend the day…
TV
Star Trek: Picard [Paramount+] – I really do enjoy this show very much. I’m glad it’s going to get another season. I hope it means more Rios (Santiago Cabrera)! I’m curious how this season will end but I’m glad to just watch weekly and let the episodes settle in my head.
Moon Knight [Disney+] – SUCH a good show! I think it helped having read a Moon Knight collection before this latest episode. Will this show tie in to the later MCU universe? Must it? I don’t think it must. I hope we see more sides of Oscar Isaac because I know Moon Knight has more than just Steven and Marc as his personalities…
Halo [Paramount+] – I like this show more than I thought I would even though I really very much do not like the teenager character. She really annoys the heck out me. I don’t trust the doctor but I feel like Cortona is going to bite everyone on the butt because she certainly has a lot of attitude for a non-corporeal AI. I might like her.
RANDOM MUSINGS
A box from Maryland arrived early in the week and the Catholic books pictured were in that box. Richard didn’t want anything from his grandmother’s belongings but I asked about a family bible or the like and those were kindly sent. The bible is quite worn and was obviously read. There are notes in the pages and it was nice seeing her handwriting again. The two books of saints are in better condition, making me wonder if she read them as much as she did the Bible…
My writing is so very stalled. I can’t seem to just sit down and write what’s swirling through my head. This is what happens when I write the near end of a story– I can’t work out the beginning and middle. It shouldn’t be such a struggle, right?…
I went a little crazy with the retail therapy this weekend. I wandered into the Bath and Body Works store on Friday afternoon after work and walked out with a bunch of new stuff that smells good. On Saturday, I bought a blouse and dress online because they were on sale and I didn’t want to resist the sale…
I’m looking forward to cooler days, temperature-wise, if the forecast is to be believed. Maybe I’ll even have to wear a jacket! I’m hoping to catch up on the pile of work on my desk which has been never ending since the new year but what can you do?
Next weekend is our anniversary and we have plans! You’ll have to wait a week to hear about them. I’m sure to have lots of pictures.
A good week to all of you, my lovelies!
