{Sunday Post} — Anna Dressed in Blood, The Camp, and Voyages of the Imagination
The Caffeinated Book Reviewer's Kimberly hosts a weekly meme called "The Sunday Post"! 


* Weekly Tidbits *

 
  • Please keep in mind that I'm writing this post on Friday night. 

  • A cousin of mine on my adopted side passed away on Tuesday from cancer. A "celebration of life" will be held after his cremation; there won't be a funeral. 

  • I'm gradually recovering from my cold. My sneezing has stopped; however, my nose remains rather stuffy. The morning after I made myself mow the lawn, a canker sore appeared behind my tongue. It's still there, steadily improving.

  • I'm still ill with a terrible head cold. The sneezing is almost gone, but my coughing is worse; congestion comes and goes. I bought a new humidifier for my bedroom; hopefully, it will help. 

  • What's going on? The KC Royals have won 4 games in a row. They're 48-101. The question is: Can they win 50 games by the season's end?

  • I think I've got a nasty cold or a new "variant" that's going around. It started with intermittent sneezing and sinus congestion for three days. Then, on Friday night, the headaches, exhaustion, and vomiting started; my temperature never rose above 99. I slept through Saturday morning and most of the afternoon, wrapped in an electric blanket. I did go out later to grab some nasal spray, cough drops, and Kleenex. As of this writing, my congestion problems appear to be improving. 

  • Below is a photo of my Star Trek birthday cake. 


  • The Kansas City Chiefs lost their season opener. I hope this isn't a sign for the rest of the season.

  • My restriction from thrifting for books lasted nearly a day. 

  • Thursday marks my 42nd birthday, as well as the first game of the season for the Kansas City Chiefs and the season premiere of Star Trek: Lower Decks. 

  • The Kansas City Royals need a few more losses, and they'll officially be the worst team in the MLB. They're 29.5 games behind in the AL Central with a record of 42-95.

* Weekly Tidbits * 

 
  • I need to reduce the frequency of my trips to thrift stores from weekly to maybe once or twice a month. I have many unread books on my shelves, and, to be quite honest, I need more shelf space. However, I should build my bookcases or acquire better, larger ones before rearranging my collection. I should also make the time to read all the novels I have on my WTRs (want to read) shelves. I have books on at least three shelves I want to read, and except for a few titles, I don't intend to keep all of them when I finish reading them.

  • It was a long, busy week, but I had enough time to read three books. 
 
  • After getting sick and tired of hearing the shower drip (and drip), I removed the shower faucet handle and figured out the issue - one of the seats & springs needed replacing. After not finding the right-size piece at the local hardware store, I went to a different county to two other stores that didn't have the size. Eventually, I returned to my town's store and bought a Delta repair kit for a kitchen sink, which had similar-size seats & springs. And it worked; the dripping stopped. While I had the faucet apart, I replaced the other seats & springs, two washers, and a rubber seal.

  • There's a new thrift store, Bark Bargains, in my town. The proceeds go to the local animal shelter. Well, it's not really new, but it moved to a new location—the old Mediacom building. 
 
  • Why is Amazon delivery always late on Saturdays?

  • My Black Friday on-sale Keurig coffee maker went kaput, forcing me to buy the cheapest replacement at Walmart. Surprisingly, the off-brand one works better.
 
  • I had to buy a new toilet to replace the old, leaky toilet in the basement. The installment was a breeze; it took me longer to remove the old one.

  • Believe it or not, the Kansas City Royals went on a seven-game winning streak before losing two more games. They're now 36–77.

  • I hate this humid summer weather. I wish Fall would hurry up and get here already. 
 
  • I have continued to have allergy and congestion issues. Thursday and Friday were rough days for me though I was better by Saturday afternoon. 

  • It seems the rain weirdly avoids my town, but on the plus side, there hasn't been severe weather here. Well, except for the 14th, when a five-minute windstorm hit. One big tree branch got knocked down. 
 
  • The Kansas City Royals are 28-72. At this rate, I highly doubt they'll win 45 games by season's end.

  • Hey, I'm back! For those of you who noticed, I skipped last week's post. It was Father's Day, and I was busy with family stuff. 

  • Last Saturday afternoon, a wasp stung my left shoulder blade. I'm allergic to wasps, and it was on my bad shoulder, so I wasn't in a good mood.

  • As of late, I've been writing these posts on either Sunday afternoon or night. I'm writing today's Sunday Post early on Saturday afternoon, and hopefully, I will have it published at midnight. 


  • I added four new bookmarks to my collection: House of the Dragon, Yellowstone, Outer Banks, and Handbook for the Recently Deceased (Beetlejuice).

What Am I Currently Reading? 


My reading has been slow as of late. I'm halfway through the graphic novel Mindset. I'll finish it tonight and write my review for tomorrow's post. Also, I need to read another graphic novel, The Blue Flame, because my review post is due on the 7th. Then I'll read End After End, another graphic novel; my review is due on the 12th.

  • Over the past week, I've been suffering from a bad cold. It started as a simple sore throat, which was bearable, but it rapidly progressed into a head cold. For a few days, I couldn't speak. I'm still stuffy and coughing. FYI: I probably shouldn't have mowed the yard on Friday afternoon in the cold weather.
