So I took some time off from blogging and from my computer in general so that I could spend time with family and friends...and to rest. It felt good to do nothing on some days. I binged on Continuum and Virgin River, both of which I enjoyed immensely. The ending of Continuum left me in tears. As for Virgin River I have to patiently wait for Season 2.
I also watched several movies. At the cinema I watched Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, which was good. And on Prime Video I watched Five Feet Apart. Oh my gosh, more bawling! I had to watch comedies henceforth to get over the emotional upheaval of that one.
And Monday it's back to work...

It's nice to spend time with friends and family so I totally understand taking time off from the computer to do it. Loved Virgin River and I now have to patiently wait for season 2 also! Hope we get it soon! :)
ReplyDeleteMe too. It's so hard to wait for the next season when it comes to addictive tv shows. :-)
DeleteI am glad you were able to get some rest. I also got to see the new Star Wars movie recently and enjoyed it. I hope you enjoy your new books! The Nutcracker Conspiracy by Lauren Carr sounds like it will be good. I hope you have a great week!
ReplyDeleteI'm not a die hard fan of Star Wars but I've watched all the movies and enjoyed them all.
DeleteLooks like a nice beginning of your reading year. I wish you many great books
ReplyDeleteThanks Emma!
DeleteI'm waiting on my copy of The Nutcracker Conspiracy. I love Lauren's books and been reading them for years. Virgin River was fun and now I want to read the books.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like another winner by Lauren.
DeleteNow I must check out Virgin River. I've heard good things. I also need to catch up on the Lauren Carr books. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you'll enjoy Virgin River. :-)
DeleteI'm glad you had a chance to relax and recharge. The holiday season is always a busy time for us so we need some of that right now. Enjoy your new books!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you enjoyed your 'down' time. Our son had us watch a few movies with him and the first season of The Good Place.
ReplyDeleteI'm eyeing The Nutcracker Conspiracy book.
Happy Reading!
Glad you took a break. We all need it. The one thing I didn't do this year is watch A Christmas Carol, which I always do. I'll have to pull it out soon.
ReplyDeleteAll your books look great. I bet The Bad Zamboni is funny. Hope you have a nice week.

Don't you just love that title: The Bad Zamboni :-) I love it.
DeleteYay for spending time with your family and friends ;)
ReplyDeleteWishing you a great reading week
Well I hope to get to Virgin River as it is getting such positive reviews but I don't watch much tv. We just hooked ours up and we've lived here 6 months. I don't think I watched any tv this past year at all. We have Netflix but I haven't watched that either. I do want to see the new Star Wars movie in the theater since I have seen them all.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad your holiday was restful. Have a great week and enjoy some new books!

Deletehope you enjoyed all your time with friends and family it's nice to step away from the blogging world every once in a while

I liked Star Wars too. I wasn't entirely expecting to so I was pleasantly surprised. and Continuum was one of my favorite shows! That ending was bittersweet. :)
ReplyDeleteHave a nice week!
Yes, well said, Greg. It was a bittersweet ending.
DeleteHappy to hear you took some time to spend with family and friends.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year, Laura.
Thanks for all the giveaways! I've heard of several people like Virgin River. Hubs and I are watching the second season of Good Girls now and really enjoying it. Happy New Year!
