Description: The Sunday Post is a chance to share News. A post to recap the past week, showcase books and things we have received and share news about what is coming up for the week on our blog. This is your news post, so personalize it! Include as much as you want or as little. Be creative, it can be a vlog or just a showcase of your goodies.
SERIOUSLY, penguins–empty boxes are beginning to take over my apartment! It’s like a cardboard invasion, except I can’t battle them down or fight them off because I’m going to NEED them here very soon. I mean, it’s fine, don’t get me wrong…but they’re EVERYWHERE. My coworkers keep threatening to pile them up around me and then knock the tower down so I’m buried and can’t leave town. XD
I spent the whole of yesterday chasing high blood sugars. I am honestly still not certain if it’s thanks to hormones or just one of those fluke weeks that comes around now and then. My sugar didn’t drop below 136…and most of my day was spent over 200. I woke up super low this morning….but spiked again after breakfast to 190. And stayed there, preeeeeetty stubbornly, for most of the morning. It did, finally, drop about an hour before my second dose of insulin peaked, and I’ve been battling lows ever since, so…fingers crossed I’m back on track!
Aside from all THAT madness, there’s a whole lotta nothing going on in my life right now, so….let’s take a look at how the last week treated me on the blog!

LOL I honestly have no idea? I have been scheduling a lot of my posts ahead of time–I take a day or two a week and just bang out a bunch at once, which helps. The review posts I do as I finish books, so that helps too. Cover reveals and the likes are pretty easy to just copy/paste… *shrugs*
You are SO very welcome! I hope you enjoy reading through the different blogs I shared here! 😀 Thank YOU for stopping by, Reg!

And doesn’t it?! I have the first two books to read atm, and am signed up to review the third book before it’s released–I’m pretty excited about them! I looooove the covers for them, too, so far!

Isn’t it great?! I’d never actually watched the video before now, though, so that was an interesting–and disturbing–experience! It sort of reminds me of The Shining…I found myself wondering if perhaps that’s where they got the idea from? 🙂

I hope your blood sugar stays on track ♥ Also yess at The Kill. I’ve loved that song since I was 16!

Seeing that video with 30 seconds to Mars made me think about which celebrities and politicians I’d like to send on a one way trip there! I do keep lists for things like that and Celebrity Death Island which I have soooo many ideas for…yes I am twisted, I admit it. Wonder if I’m a secret sociopath…?
