LOOKING FORWARD to October


This week I drove for ride-share and took a ton of people to the airport ,some of which were complaining about the cost of flights as the time passes. 

Downtown Mpls Murals


My son made his first phone call to a friend this year(he’s six).  He also making plans to go to a pumpkin patch with a friend today. 

Chicken Tandoori from Masala Restuarant


This week I also did some improv for a zombie Podcast. we are still in the planning stages of deciding what kind of audio equipment we should use and breaking up the scenes for each section of the podcast.


This was my week, how was yours?  Let me know in the comments below.





 

ON THE BLOG


Reading





Magnolia Parks.  Lots of fun stuff in this novel. I'd describe it as a Billionaire novel series meets Korean K-pop drama because the little love triangles in this novel are very similar but maybe more intense. (And it's set in the UK) There's rhythm and snappy dialogue in Jessa Hastings writing that made me understand why this novel has at least 5,000 reads on GoodReads.

I loved the concept in this romance novel. The characters travel in their dreams.  I kind of thought it could be expanded upon or even work better as a fantasy novel but I heard that time travelling novels are the hardest to write overall and writers should avoid it if possible.

This book by Elizabeth O'Roark was recommended by Youtuber: Peace, Love Books and It was described as one of her books she was obsessed with.  This book is outstanding!. Olivia's character had such a tone and rebellious attitude. I don't want to spoil it for you but she is a runner with a flaw.  This novel literally got me excited about Exercising again.  The energy between the characters in this dual narrative novel was phenomenal.

  3. Hi, Trin!

    Thank you for visiting Shady's Place Music & Memories today! As I mentioned in my reply to your comment, my background is similar to yours in certain ways, specifically my work with actors, comedians, models and other types of entertainers.

    Halloween season is in full swing at Shady's Place...

    1. Thanks for the great feedback. My biggest discovery while social networking is that Comedians know a ton of people. My friend Mark Knutson is a comedian and through him I've met so many many people!

  4. The telephone is completely essential to kids! Your son will probably want his own iPhone before you know it!

  6. Your son's first phone call to a friend! How cute! I remember when my little neighbor girl would call me (on behalf of her mom) to see if I wanted to go to Target with them. One time I said "Yes, can I throw some clothes on first?" She said "Yes...and brush your teeth, too." Ack I love little kids. lol

    1. Yes, I learned that with young kids on the phone, you have to help get the conversation going.
