Quick reading/watching/life (p)update...

Waves hi!!!

I have been really wanting to blog for weeks now but...I haven't *felt like blogging* lol Does that make any sense??

I miss everyone and want to chat about things but actually sitting down and typing posts - not so much.

I'll be doing the quickest of updates then share a silly reenactment of the Ripley/Kai incident that happened over the weekend. Because THAT'S what I felt like doing when I sat at the computer instead of typing a review 🤣

READ/READING:

What We Buried by Kate A Boorman - I swear I will eventually write a review about this one because it was an unusual and trippy book that I liked a lot.

Malibu Rising by Taylor Jenkins Reid - I started listening to this on audio and it's a dnf for me. I don't really care about poor little rich/famous people and their family problems and parties. The narrator is making the story sound like a cheesy Hollywood documentary instead of being engaging. It could be because it's 3rd person? I don't know but I give up lol

I have Roxy by Neal and Jarrod Shusterman coming up for review but I feel like it's going to be a heavy read that I need to concentrate on so we'll see. 

XOXO by Axie Oh - I had jury duty (another story to tell) so I wanted something light to read while I had to wait. Everyone loves and recommended this - plus no hold! But, of course, I didn't have time to read during jury duty and it expired but I checked it out again and hope to start it today. 

WATCHING: 

I'm watching my backlog of 2020 Hallmark movies starting with Fall Fest and through Christmas (last year). I think I've watched 5 (out of 29 lol) so far. Nothing really stands out.

An Astrological Guide for Broken Hearts on Netflix It's an Italian rom-com series (1season so far) and kind of wacky but endearing. HUGE ass cliffie at the end so be warned. 

The Harder They Fall on Netflix - Good western - LOTS of blood and gore, good acting (especially Regina King). I was kind of surprised it was a first time director because it was done so well - with the look and pacing. 

Love Hard on Netflix  is a new Christmas movie and is a super cute fake dating rom-com. I LOVED the guy, it didn't drag out toooo long or get too wacky so it was 👍👍 from me and my movie date friend.

Sooooo....Saturday we decided to take the dogs to the park and we always take them in the enclosed tennis court to chase their ball. They get nice and tired and we don't have to do much except throw a ball.

Anyway - Kevin threw the ball, they ran and full speed...toward each other and jumped up to get the ball and exact same time and CRACK. I heard the noise and saw Kai's head twist and panicked.

Kai was cowering and I saw blood trickling from his front teeth but it stopped after I wiped it off and he looked fine but was very dramatic about the whole thing.

Ripley was still bouncing around trying to get me to throw the ball so I thought she was fine but then saw a big string of bloody drool swing out lol 

She cracked a front tooth down the root and, miraculously, (if you've heard about my vet situation out here) I was able to get her seen by a vet that Monday. It needs to come out but she can't get in until January. But she's a toughie and is acting at 100%. In fact, I've had to take all her bones and balls away because she still tries to chew on things like nothing happened. She even continued to play for another 1/2 hour after it happened.

So that's a wrap-up of my fascinating life lol What have you all been up to? Any reading or watching rec's?

*I hope to be back regularly-ish soon - but we all know I will likely spend more time making a Thanksgiving dog theme banner instead lol
