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 also linking up to The Sunday Salon hosted by Deb Nance @Readerbuzz.
Happy Sunday!
It was a quieter week here and the week has been good, other than being in pain. I think it may be my gallbladder? I'll know more after visiting the doctor tomorrow.
We're finally out of an unusual October heatwave here. Our temps were in the 90s (32C) this last week, but oddly it didn't feel that hot. Maybe because of the shorter days? It cooled down fast. I woke up to 40F (4.4C) degrees here and lit a fire because it was so cold!
We've started on some fall tasks in the garden and I've bought some bulbs I need to plant.
You can now rate books with .25 and .5 stars on Goodreads!
A crisp, sunny morning. You can't tell here, but the leaves have just started to change color.

How was your week?
I'm glad you had some time at home but sorry you are in pain. I hope the doctor has a good solution. I'm trying to rest up a couple days before the election blur starts.
ReplyDeleteAnne - Books of My Heart This is my Sunday Post
Two people I know have had gallbladder surgery in the last month. I hope you can get to the root of the problem. Best Christmas Ever looks like great fun.
ReplyDeleteHope you feel better soon! Starla is adorable. I love the puzzles you did. How to take good pics of my puzzles after they are completed eludes me. You did such a nice job. I have similar books on my lists. Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteI hope you're feeling better soon. Gallbladder pain is no joke! The Best Christmas Ever looks fanatstic. I hope you enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad your weather has cooled down somewhat. I had to have my gallbladder removed quite a while ago, so I understand your pain. I always love seeing your pictures of your yard and plants. Beautiful, Rachel.
ReplyDeleteCozy Little Christmas looks fun! But I sure hope you get some answers about your health!
ReplyDeleteIt’s over 90F here today but we are in the middle of Spring so it’s not really a surprise.
ReplyDeleteLove the mahjong puzzle, I used to look forward to playing it with my grandparents when we visited.
Thanks for sharing your week, happy reading!
Starla's a cutie! And sorry you've been experiencing that kind of pain. Fingers crossed they figure it out...and that it's easy to fix! Good luck.
