The Sunday Post is hosted by Kimberly @ Caffeinated reviewer book blog, and is a post to recap my bookish and non-bookish things from the last week.
I'm back up north at my daughter's house and unfortunately I'm sick. I feel like death warmed over. My daughter and her kids were sick and passed it on to me. Like I said, I feel totally horrible. We stayed in today and watched three movies from the Marvel Comics Universe since we didn't have any energy to do anything else. Hopefully, I'll kick this thing quickly, but if my daughter is any indication I won't be feeling good anytime soon. :(
Read:
Been super busy so all I've finished were two audio books. Enjoyed both and both are Kindle Unlimited.
Received/Purchased/Library Lend:
I love Loreth Anne White's dark atmospheric mystery/romances, and so of course I added In the Dark. I also downloaded the next two books from Kindle Unlimited of the Widow's Island novellas (see above) by Kendra Elliot and Melinda Leigh, but I'm too tired to add those covers above. They're quick, entertaining mysteries.
Watched:
Yes, I watched four movies in two days because that's what you do when you're sick, lol. Well, that and feed and care for kids. Sick moms never get a complete break. We put on a movies for them in the bedroom while we were watching these, or it was nap/bedtime. Wouldn't want to give the kids nightmares.
How was your week?
Oh no- hope you feel better soon! It's been around our house too and everyone is miserable. Yay for catching up on Marvel though. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Greg!
DeleteI hate being sick and I hope you are feeling better soon. I hope you have a great week ahead.
ReplyDeleteGayathri @ Elgee Writes
Me too! Thanks! :)
DeleteI got sick, too, but I immediately started drinking lots of water, and taking Echinacea, Golden Seal, Vitamin C, Bioflavonoids, and eating apples and oranges. It helped immensely!
ReplyDeleteGenesis @ Whispering Chapters
Yeah, I've been doing Golden Seal and vitamin C tea, but still feel like death. Hopefully it'll be knocked out quicker with those remedies. Glad to hear you're feeling better. :)
DeleteFeel better.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteOh, no! I hope the worst of it passes soon. Sounds like you are resting, though, and that always helps.
ReplyDeleteHa Rachel I feel you! I have a congested nose but my son has a huge stomach flu!!! Let's hope that next week will be better for you!
ReplyDeleteThe stomach flu is worse than what I have! It usually passes quicker, though. Hope we all feel better soon! :)
DeleteHope you feel better soon! Sorry everyone was sick during your visit. Thats a bummer!
ReplyDeleteThank you! Yeah, it sucks. Probably should've canceled my trip. Oh well.
DeleteNow, that stinks. So sorry you caught the crud. We had our turn the week before last. Looks like some fun movies to entertain you. Yay glad you loved the Widow's Island novellas.
ReplyDeleteHave a better week coming, Rachel!
Thank you, Sophia Rose! :) hope to knock this thing out quick.
DeleteI really hope you feel better soon. Drink lots of fluids and read! I love your reads: Kendra Elliot, Mary Burton and Loreth Anne White are all winners. I haven't read that series by Elliot but I enjoyed the other two books you shared. Here's to a better week!
ReplyDeleteAnne - Books of My Heart Here is my Sunday Post
Thanks, Anne! Yes, they're great mystery/suspense writers. :)
DeleteI hate to hear that you are sick!
ReplyDeleteIt has been a long time since I have read anything by Kendra Elliot but Close to the Bone sounds interesting.
Feel better soon!
Being a sick mom is the worst, the worst!
ReplyDeleteOh no, I hope you are feeling better Rachel. Being sick is no fun and when there are little kids running around it is even worse. I hope you have a good (and healthy) week!
ReplyDeleteSorry that you're sick. I hope you feel better soon! I need to rewatch the Marvel movies sometime down the line!
ReplyDeleteHere’s my Sunday Post!

No fun being sick hope you feel better! Glad to see you continuing with the MCU.. Winter Soldier is one of my favorites!
ReplyDeleteOh no! I'm so sorry! I hope you feel better soon!
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry you're so sick, Rachel. I hope you feel better soon! I always watch reruns of Friends when I'm sick, lol. I am looking up In the Dark. I love that cover! I still haven't read a book by that author, either.
ReplyDeleteOh, being sick is not fun! I hope you feel better soon - and just laying around watching movies sounds like a nice way to spend those sick days at least.

I'm so sorry you're sick! Hope you feel better soon. :)
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear you got sick! I love this time of year but HATE how it seems to be illness after illness. :(
ReplyDeleteYour Marvel movies this week would have made me so happy, sickness bug or no. Captain America is my favourite and Guardians are a close second.
Oh no, sorry to hear that you got sick, Rachel. Hopefully you’re starting to feel better. I think I might have seen one of the Captain America movies. Or parts, anyway. I was probably doing something else while my husband watched and only looked up now and then. And I’ve never seen the Guardians movies but I know a lot of people love them.
