What I’ve been up to?
I’m still in Southern California and will be here another week. I’m enjoying myself very much, and spending time with my family has been nice. We took my grandniece to a local farm/petting zoo, and she loved it.
My sister will have her surgery on Friday, and then I’ll stay for a few days until she’s ok on her own.
Daylight savings time! I hope everyone does ok with the time change last night. I am experiencing the time change for the first time in 7 years! I’m in California, so I have to change the time like the rest of the country. I am missing living in Arizona today as they don’t change the time.
It was my wedding anniversary yesterday. 34 years! My husband and I are apart, as he stayed back in Arizona. But, during our life, we missed many anniversaries due to our life in the military. We’ll celebrate once I get back home.
Last week I read:
I had a good week of reading. And I enjoyed all these books. Especially A Tempest at Sea and The Love Wager.
Next week I hope to get to:
I hope I can get a few of these books read this week.
What I Watched:
I have finally discovered Ted Lasso. My sister and I have been binging this series and I love it. Season 3 starts on Wednesday.

Have you read any of these books? What are you hoping to read this next week? What have you been up to last week? Comment below!
Glad you are getting to enjoy family time and that you will be there for your sister. It is too bad to be away from your husband though, especially on your anniversary. Happy Anniversary. I don’t think Robert and I missed any together although there were years I forgot. He always remembered and would rib me terribly!
Your reading looks good.
I’ve read the first book in the Speedwell series. And I have heard of at least three of the other authors but they aren’t in my Goodreads list which is only since 2008.
I hope your week goes well. Happy Reading!
Aww the piglets! What fun! And happy anniversary! My husband travels a lot for work and we’ve missed a lot of anniversaries and birthdays so I can relate. I hope you are able to go have a nice dinner or do something special when you get home. Have a great week!
Look at all those piglets! So cute! It sounds like it has been a fun trip so far. Happy Anniversary!
Happy anniversary! Sounds like you’re having a good time with your family. You’ve read some great books last week. I have a few of them on my TBR. Have a great week.
Happy Anniversary, Wendy! We’re big Ted Lasso fans here. We rewatched a few episodes to be prepared for the season premiere this week.
Happy anniversary! ⛪💐🎉
I wish the plans for not changing the time anymore was for Standard Time and not DST. I hate DST. I like my extra light in the morning, not at night. 🙄
Sending healing energy for your sister. 🤗
Have a wonderful new week. ☀
Happy Anniversary! Those piglets are so cute. 😀 We have a petting farm up the road from where I live. They have so many goats , adults and babies, in the spring. It is fun to visit even for us adults. 🙂
Happy 34th anniversary, Wendy and congrats on 100 followers as well. Those piglets look cute. I hope it all goes okay for your sister.
I think I have heard about that lady Sherlock series but hasn’t read it yet.
Happy anniversary Wendy! And your grandniece is so very cute!! We love Ted Lasso too but need to catch up on the last season still..
I think she’s really cute too! 😍 Thank you!
Happy Anniversary!
I ended up DNFing (at least for now) Solomon’s Crown. It was boring me to tears. I’m reading Weyward now and kind of having the same problem but not quite as bad. Historical fiction if it’s not mixed with fantasy, mystery, or thriller genres is very tough for me. But like you, I love, love, loved A Tempest At Sea and want so much to read the 6 books that came before it (see – history and mystery genres mixed together works for me 😂)
Glad you’re having such a good time with your family. Sending positive vibes to your sister for a successful surgery and a quick recovery.
Thank you, Tessa. Solomons crown had a slow start, but I ended up enjoying it ok.
Congratulations on your anniversary and may you have many more! Glad you are enjoying your time in California! Happy reading!
Thank you, Jolene! 😀
Happy Anniversary, Wendy. I have a few of those books to read, Wendy and am looking forward to them. Have a great week and I hope your sister’s surgery goes well.
Thank you, Carla
Happy anniversary!
Thank you, Lydia.
Happy Anniversary! Speedy recovery to your sister, but it looks like your enjoying your stay. I wish the rest of the states would copy Arizona. It’s such a pain to change the time. Happy reading this week!
I am enjoying my stay in California very much. Thank you, Dedra
Happy anniversary! And looks like a fun trip. Getting to see familyt is always nice. 🙂
I’m not a fan of the time change as it always seems to take me a week to adjust ha ha!
Thank you, Greg
THE PHOTOS OH MY GOSH I LOVE THEM SO MUCH THE BABY PIGLETS ARE ADORABLE OKAY 😍😍 THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING THEM!!!!! ALSO YAY ON ENJOYING ALL THE BOOKS!! happy anniversary and i hope you still had a great day either way!!
Thank you, Anoushka!
Happy Anniversary!!! That’s impressive and what a fun time spending with family! The time change is rough and today my kid has let me know it. haha. We love Ted Lasso!! So excited for season 3! I hope you have a wonderful week!
Thank you, Leslie
Happy Anniversary!!!!
Your grandneice is tooooooooooooooooo cute!!!! Look at her!!!!
If you love Ted Lasso you must also try Shrinking, created by the same team. Harrison Ford is so good at comedy!
Hope all goes well with your sister’s surgery and that’s great that you can stay to help her out.
Thank you so much,! I’m going to check out, Shrinking!
Happy Anniversary, Wendy! Those piglets are sooo cute. Didn’t know Arizona didn’t do the time change. I just assumed everyone in the country did it. I’ve always had to do it and the Spring Ahead is my least favorite as we lose an hour. Enjoy your time in California! Hope your sister’s surgery goes well.
Arizona “opted out” of Daylight Savings Time in 1968!
Happy Anniversary, Wendy! Glad you are enjoying your time in California! And, enjoying lots of books! I hope your sister’s surgery and recovery goes well!
Thank you, Cindy
I hate the time change too! Does anyone like it? I love that picture of the piglets! Have a great week!
Those piglets were so cute!!
Hi Wendy!
Happy Anniversary to you! Glad you are enjoying your time with family. And you still manage to read so many books. You truly are my hero!
I’ve read The Thursday Murder Club and it’s good! I haven’t read any of the rest of the series, although I have the next one on my shelf! Hope you get to enjoy it.
Have a lovely week and enjoy your family and some reading!

Thank you so much! My sister can’t move around much. So there is plenty of time for reading.
So jealous that you guys don’t have to deal with the Daylight Savings time. As much as I like the Fall one where we “gain” an hour, the spring one is no fun and I wish they’d just finally leave it. The petting zoo looks like fun. Hope your sister’s surgery goes well!
Thank you, Lisa
Senate passed the bill to keep us on Daylight Savings Time, but it still requires the House vote and the President’s signature. I absolutely despise the change twice a year and have always said that Arizona “does it right.” I think its effects are worse if you are working, but even retired I think it is a disruption to my body. My husband declared this morning that for Lent he is giving up Daylight Savings Time.🤣 Great idea!
That’s so funny that your husband wants to give up DST for lent!
Happy Anniversary Wendy. I hope all goes well with your sister’s surgery. Daylight Savings Time is just awful. One thing I miss about living in AZ…..not changing the clocks!😂Have a wonderful week and happy reading!📚💜
Thank you, Susan.
Happy Anniversary! The little pigs are so cute! I hope everything goes well for your sister. I really dislike Daylight Savings and wish they would get rid of it for good!
Yes! To no more time change! Thank you Joanna
Happy Anniversary!
Thank you, Kristi!
Happy anniversary! I hope your sister’s surgery goes well and you have lots of fun with your family.
Thank you!
I am also looking forward to that new Lora Leigh. It will be interesting to see what she delivers there. Glad you ended up loving that Sherry Thomas. Happy Anniversary. Hope the time change isn’t too much of an adjustment. I do know senate passed a law that this is the last time we will have to experience the change and daylight savings which will be so nice.
I hope the time change goes away for everyone soon. Thank you!
We have been watching Ted Lasso too!!!! I absolutely love it.
And pigs are pretty darn cool. And cute when they are tiny babies.
Happy Anniversary!
Thank you, Erin!
Happy Anniversary Wendy! We will also be celebrating 34 years later this year. BC is ready to stay on daylight savings time and we’re hoping that the bill allowing states to change permanently to daylight savings time actually makes it to congress this time (it was just reintroduced). Hopefully this will be our last time change. Have a great week ahead Wendy.
Thank you Jodie. Life is just easier without those time changes.
Happy Anniversary! Glad you are enjoying family time in California, aww the piglets! Ted Lasso looks interesting.
Thank you!
Happy anniversary! Those piglets are adorable!
Thank you, Amanda
Happy anniversary & hope it all goes OK for your sister. Hope you have a great week 😊
Thank you, Jenny
Love family celebrations! 💕
I do too! Thank you, Carol!!
