Issue #8 - December 6, 2015 to December 12, 2015

Hello, everyone! Welcome to Issue #8 of The Sunday Post on Once Untold!

I think I'm going to change up the format for this section of The Sunday Post. Instead of just doing a paragraph about my week, I'm going to make a list so that each day I can just fill in what went on. So let's get started on my rundown of my life this past week!

Sunday: As I mentioned in Issue #7, I wasn't feeling too hot from last Wednesday to today. But today was just so much worse, because I couldn't keep any of my food down. That's a little TMI, but I just felt like I was constantly hungry, and that's no fun at all. Also today, I just received my copy of S.T. Bende's Perfekt Order, which I need to have read for Tuesday's release. It was sent to everyone last Monday, on November 30th, but my stupid Kindle hasn't been downloading files when they are sent, so now I only have two days to get the book read and it's a long one. Which isn't going to be easy since I'm not feeling all that well today. I just want to sleep. So that leaves all the reading for Monday. Wish me luck!

Monday: I finally got my December TBR updated. This month is basically a catch-up reading month for all the books that I got behind on or just need to finish reading. It's a really long list. I'm kind of ashamed that I let myself get so behind on my reading. I wasn't able to get my comforter from the store today, because they still haven't sent a confirmation email saying that it has been delivered. So I'm a bit disappointed by that. Hopefully, I won't have to wait too much longer.

Tuesday: Okay, so I didn't get Perfekt Order done by today, even though I stayed up reading until after 7 AM. I've got about 40% of the book left to read. Luckily, we have until the end of the week to have our reviews posted. Has anyone tried the Cheetos Sweetos Cinnamon Sugar Puffs? At first I wasn't sure that I liked them, but then as I kept eating them they got better and better. I'm sort or ashamed to say that I ate a whole 7 ounce bag of them today. They really aren't that filling and I just kept snacking on them periodically as I was doing internet stuff.

Wednesday: I started a new blog today! It's called The Review Files and it's basically just a site where I post reviews for a bunch of different things - books, movies, TV, clothing, accessories, food, products, services, etc. This blog is going to be way more relaxed than any of my other blogs, since I plan on just posting as things come. I'm hoping it does well. I also finally got the email confirmation that my comforting is in the store for pick up, so hopefully I can go pick it up tomorrow or Friday.

Thursday: I finally finished reading Perfekt Order at about 3:40 AM! It was so good! I really want the second book, Perfekt Control, but I have to wait until February. You can check out my 5 Star review here! I was able to pick up my comforter today and I'm so glad that it ended up being made out of cotton and not that silky material.

Friday: Today was a real low-key day. Not much happened that is worth saying here.

Saturday: I finished setting up the website page and sign up form for a book tour I'm organizing through LIEP Promotions. If you'd like to take part in the My Heart Is Yours Tour, taking place from January 1st to 7th, click here or the button below!

  2. Nice to know you are feeling better and able to keep food down. Even is it's junk food:) I munch on Doritos while on the internet and it's funny that I still get surprised when I reach in the bag and it's empty. LOL
