Hello everyone! I hope you are all enjoying your weekend so far! We did so much yard work yesterday that Billy and I are feeling it this morning. Lol. Wyatt had a blast though, playing in the yard while we worked and we had a great time out there together. This morning though, I might need an extra cup of coffee to get moving again.

So this week is a bit weird. Tomorrow is a holiday here in the States, and we are having some family over in the afternoon. Then Tuesday and Wednesday we have Wyatt’s overnight EEG at the hospital. I can never read in the hospital plus I will be trying to keep Wyatt entertained because keeping an 8 year old who feels fine confined to a hospital room is not fun, especially when they are hooked up to wires. And it will be just me and Wyatt for most of the day, since Billy will be working. He will joins us after work for the overnight part, but the daytime hours will just be Wyatt and I. Sleeping is bit hard too for kiddo. I saw this meme on the IG account Epilepsy Memetherapy and it is so true.

Read Last Week:

I REALLY wanted to read this book and I was hoping my hold would come in, so I was sort of avoiding reading anything in case it did. And on Wednesday, it came in! I practically raced to the library to pick it up, and it was definitely worth waiting for. It is a short, fast read, and I read it literally in one day. I LOVED it. I can’t wait to read more T. Kingfisher. It was both creepy and funny – the main character has a sense of humor very close to my own and I just couldn’t stop reading it.

Reading This Week:

I am not sure how much I will get to read this week! I do have a book all ready though in case I do get some time.

I also have a giant photo book to flip through.

Posted Last Week:

The Spring of Cary Grant: Operation Petticoat

Wednesday Morning Coffee Catch Up

The Spring of Cary Grant: Suspicion

Watching and Listening:

We have been watching the same things that we have been – Brokenwood and When Calls the Heart. Last night we changed things up though and watched Dungeons and Dragons, which was actually really good. It was just really fun and made me laugh out loud at certain parts. Chris Pine was great in his role, as was Hugh Grant!

As for listening, I have been listening to True Crime again after a long break. I am catching up on Morbid, Redhanded, and Going West. There was even a Morbid/Redhanded collab!

I am saving all my favorite YouTube channel updates for the hospital. Once Wyatt falls asleep Billy and I put on our headphones and watch stuff on our phones so we don’t wake him up. I will be watching lots of Darling Desi, Dainty Diaries, With Love Kristina, Alexis Dahl, It’s a Charming Life, and The Rambling Rose.

And that is from around here! I hope all is well in your world!

  3. I hope things go smoothly this week-especially for the hospital stay! Have you heard of Pick and Draw? It’s a card game where you pick the different features of a face and put them together, it’s fun and the face is different each time…might be an activity you can do in the hospital. Although, after a quick glance Amazon doesn’t have it! Maybe a few new card games, or coloring books if your son is into those kinds of things.

    1. Thanks Cindy!

      I have not but that sounds like a game Wyatt would love! He loves drawing and art. I can’t believe Amazon doesn’t have it! Lol. I have some boring stuff packed (math and reading for school lol) and then his tablet, some books. I like the idea of the coloring books and crayons, adding that to the bag!!

  4. Ooo!!! I need that Lodge book!!!! I can’t believe the LA Public Library system doesn’t have this book listed. I was able to find it on Goodreads and add it to my TBR, at least.

    I hope you guys have a wonderful Memorial Day and that things go smoothly and time passes quickly in the hospital.

    I hope this week goes well for you all. My youngest son (he’s probably older than you) had a sleep study Friday night. He had a tough time trying to sleep so I can’t imagine getting an 8 year old to fall asleep especially when all wired up, literally and figuratively!

    We watched Dungeons and Dragons…well, Mike did! I listened and knitted because I just can’t seem to just watch tv. I think I missed a lot. Hugh Grant does creepy smarm so well, doesn’t he? I wonder if there will be a sequel because I could see them doing several of them.

    Here’s to Wyatt sleeping well, you reading lots of good books, and Billy being as supportive as he always is!

    1. Thanks Marsha! It is going to be tough. Lol. I packed this moon thing we have, that is a light with stars and plays music. We used it when he was in the hospital after his shunt surgeries so maybe that will help.

      Lol! I have times like that too, where I am more listening than watching. It was really entertaining, and yes, Hugh Grant is so perfect in that type of role. Lol.

      And thank you Marsha!

  15. The cartoon made me laugh. Oh so accurate! I hope the hospital stay goes well. A hospital stay with a child that’s feeling pretty good is definitely a bit of a challenge! I’m adding A House With Good Bones to my TBR. It looks like a fun one and I really want to read more from Karen White. I hope you’re having a wonderful week!

    I hope all goes well with the overnight EEG– my son had to have a regular (short!) one when he was like 4 and we had to keep him up all night the night before so he was sleep deprived for the test. It was a struggle! Mostly because his brother was an infant at the time and was also with us!
