I will go back and add the other months
April Week 2
This is where things started to get crazy
The big picture is from Jeff and I going to see the final part of The Chosen Season 5, it was the only one I remembered to get a picture of.
Okay, that Christmas tree picture. Back in January, Jeff and I decided we would give away our artificial Christmas tree because we weren’t using it, and so clearly we should give it away. Jeff said, “Let’s wait and when Superman is home for Spring Break, I’ll have him help me bring it down.” Well, that didn’t happen. Then it didn’t happen, and it didn’t happen. So I decided to bring it down on my own. I shoved the tree down to the landing and it exploded out of the box, and made this giant mess. I carefully got it back up and with an obnoxiously large amount of tape, put that box back together and made sure that box would not come apart again. Then I shoved the tree down the stairs more carefully. I got almost all the way down the stairs and Leezard just stared at me. Like, “What Mom? I’m just going to stand in the middle of the stairs where it’s not a problem for you to stroll down.” It was a problem. But I eventually got the tree down the stairs.
Also, did you know some crazy person thought it would be a great idea to sell a bag of only black jelly beans, what crazy person thought that would be a good idea?
Okay, now comes the stressful part of April. So Leezard quit eating. With Leezard that is a huge warning sign. So I take her into the vet on that Friday, and they give her an x-ray, and she’s got something in her gut. We decide to do surgery. They pull out some chicken bones. It’s all dramatic. She comes home. Has large amounts of pills to take.
Then, Sunday night her wound starts seeping, so Monday I take her back into the vet, and they say, it’s not a big deal, it’s gotten infected. She spends the day at the vet, they give her IV fluids, she gets more pills to take, and a fancy blue bandage, and I get to spend every day of the week coming in for them to change her bandage and give her a special treatment.
It’s a long week. A very stressful long week. She is taking 20 pills a day.
Books read
- Billionaire Benefactor– Cinder Luna reminded me of a book in this series, that I could vaguely remember, and I needed something that was no braincells to read, so I started through this book series I had as a box set and was no brain to read
- Billionaire Baron– honestly, the books are early in this author’s writing career, and you can tell. Now if she were writing them, there would be another 50 or so pages to let the books have more breathing room and the story wouldn’t feel so rushed
- Billionaire’s Masquerade Ball– it was this book, but I hadn’t remembered which book it was until I got to this one, and again, the author was young in her writing, and needed another few scenes for the book to not feel too rushed
- Billionaire’s Secret Heir– this was an odd book, and definitely the weakest in the series for me
- Tis the Gingerbread Season– supposedly a Hansel and Gretel retelling, but it’s a rom-com, and Hansel and Gretel are siblings and there is no evil witch, the closest we have is there is a gingerbread cottage, and this book is ridiculously short, overall, the only reason I don’t feel gipped is I paid like 99 cents
- Meet Me at Midnight– vaguely kind of sort of Cinderella, this is actually book 1 in this series, and I like the concept of the series, but really the author just wants to write a magical town that is vaguely kind of sort of inspired by fairy tales, and has a family you should really beware of making deals with
- The Lucky One– so like this, this is supposedly based on Goldilocks, but it’s not really, I forget what they even claimed was the loose tie to that fairy tale, it’s a fun series, and the books are so freaking short. It’s kind of annoying.
- Once Upon a Rose– supposedly this is a Beauty and the Beast retelling. In reality, it’s just a guy who is under a curse, he’s not even cursed so that he’s transformed, he’s just cursed in some vague curse. Again, the author just had a fantasy story she wanted to tell and claimed she wanted to tell a Beauty and the Beast tale. Argh, why?
