The Downton Abbey
movie- We finally finished watching the series after speeding through all but
the last season.
The Goldfinch
movie- I thoroughly enjoyed the book and while I’m not usually a huge fan of
most book-to-film adaptations, this one looks good.
The British Baking
Show- They’re baaaaaaack! Only one episode at a time, but I’ll take it.
Workin’ Moms- I
know there are some major issues with this show, but it’s entertaining and it
makes me laugh. I sped through the first season and am working on the second
now
This is Us- I
fully admit this is such a guilty pleasure, and I’m always several shows
behind, but it makes me happy the new season starts in a few weeks.
4 Goals I’m
Working Hard on This Week
Yoga- I’ve completely fallen off the wagon and my body
has been hurting lately after running more than usual
Less Phone Time- It could be better, it could be worse
Grading- The semester is off and running, which means
that the kids are starting to write essays and turn in plenty of work for me to
grade. This is my fourteenth year of teaching and I know better than to get
behind this early in the game.
Etsy shop- I’m finishing up one project and need to start
a special order!
3 Events I’m
Looking Forward To
Jurassic Park Kid’s Run- It’s not until November, but I
just paid for the registration for Sawyer’s 1k at Universal Studios, so I can’t
wait
Cooler Weather- I hate exercise of any sort in the heat,
so I can’t wait for it to cool down so I can get in longer runs and start doing
more local hikes.
Halloween-y Stuff- I have never been a huge fan of
Halloween, but now that Sawyer is in it to win it I have a lot of fun taking
him to Pumpkin Patches, working on his costume, and trick-or-treating.
2 Books I’ve
Preordered for September
The Testaments
by Margaret Atwood (9/10)- I’m excited and scared for this follow up to The Handmaid’s Tale
The Dutch House by
Ann Patchett (9/24)- I hate the cover and I’m not won over by the synopsis, but
I love Patchett and she’s won my trust over the years.
1 Major
Unrealistic Want
An Airstream. All of the sudden being able to attach a
mini-house to my car and drive wherever is really attractive.
