The Sunday Post - a chance for a chat and a catch-up with other bloggers - is hosted by Kimba, here: https://caffeinatedbookreviewer.com/ and It's Monday! What are you reading? is hosted by Kathryn, here: https://bookdate.blogspot.co.nz/
I actually managed to write and schedule a couple of blog posts last week - go me! I reviewed Eye in the Sky, and also the live 2013 version of The War of the Worlds. I'm going to try and do the same thing this week, with reviews for The Hound of Death, The Book of Dust and the movie Snowpiercer. I'm a latecomer, somehow, to scheduling posts, but it makes blogging sooooo much easier!
Work continues. This Wednesday is my three-month anniversary, which means the 90-day trial that's built into most of our contracts now is up. I'm *pretty* sure they would have said something to me by now if they were going to show me the door and demand back their keys, but I'm naturally superstitious. BUT I had my first evaluation last week as well, and passed, so there is that also.
I've been mainlining The Good Place on Netflix, and I am SUPER EXCITED because Grace & Frankie is back as well. I've watched, I think, five episodes since yesterday morning.
As for what I'm reading, I managed to finish The Hound of Death, and also The Book of Dust. Now I'm reading It Devours, by the Welcome to Night Vale creators, and also The Exodus Quest, by Will Adams, which is a bit Da Vinci Code, but I got it for 50c from the withdrawn bookshelf at the library, and it makes for good lunchtime reading at work.
This week - more work, more reading (hopefully) and more Netflix (always.)
How about you? How's your week? What are you reading?
I watched all episodes of The End of the FXXXing World. OMG! This show though. It's ridiculous but mad, crazy, fun and did I say ridiculous? haha and I had to watch Breaking Dawn 2 again. Loved Twilight.
ReplyDeleteI've been eyeing that one up as well - might see if I like it. :)
DeleteScheduling blog post helps me so much! Even if I don't have many to show for right now... I keep telling myself I should just go ahead and schedule a whole bunch, then I get stuck on Twitter, or with a book instead :)
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful week ahead and happy reading, Maree.

Heh, I know that feeling. Thanks you too! :)
DeleteI wish I scheduled lol I always mean to, and then never quite manage it. Maybe one day :P
ReplyDeleteCongrats on reaching the end of your 3 month probation period!
Have a wonderful week ahead :)
I really liked the first season of The Good Place! It was so funny! I haven't done very well about keeping up with the 2nd season but I'm hoping it'll show up on Netflix during the summer. Yay for being done with your probationary period but I can understand wanting solid confirmation. I'm a bit superstitious too. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteThe Good Place is absolutely great! Thanks! :)
DeleteAlways Netflix ha ha. And ooh movie reviews, I always like those. I saw that version of war of the Worlds, I think, or parts of it anyway... I don't think I've seen the beginning...
ReplyDeleteAlways Netflix :) It's a really well done version, I thought.
DeleteI love Grace and Frankie too. Good luck on the job!
ReplyDeleteIt's such a great show! Thank you :)
DeleteI try to schedule a lot of blog posts. It takes the pressure off worrying about if my blog is going dark. Also, I read ahead most of the time so that books I'm reading now won't show up on my blog for a month or so. Come see my week here. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteIt's made life and blogging so much easier!
DeleteThe Good Place might be one of my favorite things on these days. War of the Worlds live? I do not know what this is, but I must find out!
ReplyDeleteIt's so great! It was done in 2013 with Jeff Wayne conducting - it's really good.
DeleteI’m so envious that you got blog posts scheduled. I’m way behind on everything. Have a good week!
ReplyDeleteAj @ Read All The Things!
I surprised myself - lol. Thanks you too!
