What were some of your favorites?

We've been dealing with a COVID case in the household. Celena was sent home from college to recover. She's been here for a few days and getting better, Fortunately, she's been vaccinated (and young) so it wasn't that bad.

I've been reading a LOT lately - which has been great. I just finished what was *the* most disturbing book I've ever read... "The Girl Next Door", which, given that it's horror and I found it on a list of "the most terrifying books ever" probably shouldn't have surprised me much. :)
The worst part of it though is that it's based on a true story. (Basically a fictionalized narrator's POV of a real life event with the names changed) The things that people are willing to do to each other is far more terrifying than any alien spider monster that lives in the sewer.
We also finally started the Squid Games.
So basically I'm feeling pretty darn good about humanity right now. :D

What have YOU been up to?

Date: 2021-11-15 10:54 pm (UTC)It's scary what people can do to other people. And what mothers can do to their children, and, and, and.... sigh.
I've been semi-busy at work, and getting ready to do holiday stuff for all 3 companies ... *YIKES!* as well as take weekend trip with my Mom to FL for her to see her sisters for the first time in 5 years -- I actually think the one sister she hasn't seen since 2014 :(. And there are just 3 of them left, out of 9. Mom will be 82 in March -- she needs to see her family.
Anywho. I guess I better get back to work for the next 5 or so minutes. Ya'll have a good day!
