It’s funny because it’s true.
Physical copies thanks to the publishers:
This week was better. I got some office furniture, so yay! I still don’t have a swipe card to get into the building, and we thought we had some other things set up, but it didn’t work. But, progress was made. I feel like I am settling in a bit.
Yesterday was my husband’s birthday. We had dinner with friends. It was nice. His friend wanted to surprise him-they haven’t hung out in a while since we live about an hour away. It was a nice evening.
I had some training on Friday so I wasn’t at my school. It was nice to get together with the other school psychologists. We raided the supplies to get some stuff we needed and swapped cell phone numbers. The training was less enjoyable because it was about crisis prevention and how to safely perform holds on students. I still can’t imagine I would ever use it-I am more of a “get everyone else out” kind of educator.
I was excited for season 3 of Only Murders in the Building until I realized it only releases an episode a week. It’s like watch TV in the 90’s again. Ugh! Another teacher and I were talking this week because the AC was out in our room and then the WI-FI went down and we joked it would be like school in the 80’s. Then we got sad that we are old enough for that joke.
My reading has been slower because I’m so tired when I get home. I always forget that the beginning of the school year is so exhausting. By the time we put the dogs to bed and head to bed ourselves, I am ready to pass out.
It has been super hot this week (like hottest in decades). This morning though, it seems the heat wave has passed. Thank goodness! We had no dog escapes this week as well. Poor Sammy is still chewing through things (a step, the wall) so we are trying to work on that!
So, whats new with you this week? Did you read any of the same books I did? Did you find any great book deals I need to grab ASAP? Let me know in the comments!

So glad you are settling in and getting into school. The new routines are exhausting so take care of you.
Happy birthday to your hubs! I can’t wait to start the new season of Only Murders in the Building. I love that series.
“Not paying bills”. SO TRUE. Why did we want to be adults again? lol
I don’t get the whole release an episode a week thing. Remember when we went to releasing entire seasons at once? That seemed so nice, and now they’re walking it back? Gah. I’m complaining about everything lately hahahaha
See, I like tv like the 90s, or just like it was before streaming. I like watching an episode a week. Knowing I have more coming the next week. But I’m old, so I guess that makes sense, lol. Not that I’ve never binged a show, but even then I only watch 2 or 3 episodes at most at a time. Glad you got some things figured out for your new job. Sounds like it is going well so far! I’m jealous of some of the physical copies you got! I also need to make sure I check out your review for My Roommate is a Vampire, I’m very interested in that one! My review for the new Samantha Young book will be coming up this week! Have a great week!
Glad to hear you’re settling in more at the new job. Yes, not paying bills has to be one of my fondest memories too! Have a great week, Sam!
Glad you had a better week and happy birthday to your husband!
I’m glad that even with the tech issues and heat you seem happy to be in your new job.
Wishing you a happy reading week
As kids we wanted to be adults, and now as adults we want to go back to the freedom of being a child and not stressing about those things lol So many great releases coming out this week, so will be a great reading week!
Your office certainly looks colorful! And yay for the dogs not escaping!
I was going to start watching a new series and decided to wait since it wasn’t the entire season yet. Funny what we get used to now. I don’t want to wait a week. LOL
No AC and then no wi-fi? It’s like living in the Dark Ages. lol The heat has been absolutely brutal, though we’re actually getting a break today thanks to Hurricane Idalia. Only in the 80’s today. I’ll take it.
