Had a brisk (cold) four mile walk today down a new to me portion of the Swamp Rabbit Trail. Also checked out a new coffee shop that has a great outdoor area when it gets warmer.

Finished my book club book! I enjoyed but there was a lot of hard stuff in here. It was almost like a fantasy book where the world building was so strange it took time to get used to. My historical cdrama watching helped. Next- finish another book I started and then go much lighter tone.

#JinKiJoo is the perfect actress for this role. The underlying plot/mystery is much more than I expected for this drama. #SeoKangJoon continues to support "post-military muscles"...thank goodness. #UndercoverHighSchool

I woke up to an email this morning from ATT saying the service I requested to be cancelled is being processed. I didn't cancel any service but it's on my account. Really annoying that I have to spend time on this. On hold. We will see how long this takes.

Had a fun morning! Went to the Book Warehouse Sale again. Wasn’t expecting to get many books but almost all these were in my watch list! Then went to Frosty Market (the indoor version of the summer market). Treats I didn’t need but they were made by the Italian grandmother who was there selling!

Got my Robovac hooked to WiFi. It’s too late to map out the cleaning path tonight but I will tomorrow! Go Eugene!

Looks like #undercoverhighschool is delayed by one day on Viki from Kocowa.

Finished #FlourishedPeony. MuDan you really don't have a clue do you how he feels about you? She went through HELL to get where she is today and I am sure that will continue as she continues to gather enemies left and right. Not sure what S2 will cover but I will be there for it. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Did book club reading this morning. Over halfway through and I should be done Monday, a full week before the next meeting. It's getting easier to read. There are so many new (old) language that takes you a minute to grasp. #LadyTansCircleofWomen It's sunny but cold. Think I'm going to get a treat.

I know I'm supposed to change my mind later about him but Yang is really bad for this bride switch thing and beating up that poor groom. #PerfectMatch

Finished #MeloMovie. Ehhhh. #KimJaeWook is the best part hands down. I guess I really just don’t like the melo genre. Just too much back and forth misery. I didn’t feel a connection with the couples. ⭐️⭐️.5️⃣

In case you are looking for a twist on a classic.

Trying to finish #FlourishedPeony and/or #PerfectMatch before I start #TheFirstFrost but the temptation to press play is REAL. Plus #TheBestThing is right there following closely.

Finished #AoshimaKunisaBully. I think this is the first Japanese drama I've finished. It was okay. The bully refers to him being persistent, not really a bully. It was sweet but also a bit superficial on the issues. Maybe that's due to the 9 episode length. The hugs were weird, very abrupt. ⭐⭐⭐.5

A movie you’ve watched more than six times.

Boy this Halmoni looks to be a real evil gal. #MyDearestNemesis

#KimJaeWook is pretty much the only reason I stayed with #MeloMovie. The other characters just aren’t that likable. I just finished episode 7 and IYKYK.

I am ten minutes in trying to completely redo my resume to a more skills based one and I want to toss the laptop out the window. Why is this so hard??

This poor girl. I need for her life to be better. #TheWitch

Not only did I buy the wrong size printer cartridges once, I bought it twice. I was buying the ex-work printer size. Lawd. I think I've got it now.

Good.

#MyDearestNemesis first episode was fun. Hope it keeps this up.

Oh. This kid was in Atypical Family as the cool dude. He’s not so cool here but he’s hilarious. #MyDearestNemesis

Me and my Good reads “want to read” list need to have a chat. There are some books on there that really don’t interest me anymore.

Was out and about today since it’s a sunny day. Went to a few thrift stores and found a couple of nice used/new bookstores. One was more quaint and had a kpop section that I wasn’t sure why it was labeled that. The other was massive and overwhelming. Found thrift stuff for $4, some used books.

Oh nice! It’s back on Netflix!

Wait. Yang Xian is going to be LeShan’s match? This seems wrong. #PerfectMatch
