Welcome to the #SundayRoundup #54!!
On the homefront:
Oh lord where to start? .... Everything on the homefront is okish. I have been having a few problems with my youngest daughter (started over Christmas - wound up with a visit to my home) and has since seemed to die down. We are working on appropriate behaviors and attitudes and getting more therapy. So far so good. Oldest is doing good and has decided to start community college then transfer after she has taken her basic courses. So two more years with us (yay-I think). I am sorry if last week you came and the Sunday Post was all messed up as I wasn't able to fix it before Sunday. Sorry. I will add last weeks with this weeks post! I hope you had a great week!
Things I know:
Nothing is worth anything if you don't try hard doing it. The saying goes something like that! =)
School Front:
Back in session and in my 4th week. I have taken my first Microbiology test and scored a 96! I take my first Chemistry test this week. Wish we luck! =)
All my other courses are test free. Humanities and Ethics class.
Blog:
I have to get something in gear for my Monday posts. I am really busy with school to do that just yet. I hope sometime next week to think of a few ideas to get something up and ready for you guys. Sorry, this is taking me a bit to do.
Around the Blogosphere:
Some posts I read this week that I thought were cool:

Hope things are on the right track with your daughter. Congrats on your test results! I just picked up Our Year of Maybe from the library - hopefully I can get to it before it's due back.

Me too Tanya. You know it's hard raising kids. I hope you get a chance to dive into it before than. I had that problem with Bone Witch twice. So I just purchased it.
DeleteWell done on the test scores!
ReplyDeleteThe Gilded Wolves looks like a good one.
Thanks and how you get a chance to check out the book Nicci!
DeleteOur year of maybe is one I keep seeing everywhere as well as Glided Wolves. I love the cover of Glided Wolves. I hope you have a great week.
ReplyDeleteYes, I am excited to read both! Have a great week also.
DeleteGood luck pn your Chemistry test! A Broken Reality looks good. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteMy Sunday post is here.
That is the book that is taking me a bit to read but so far I am liking it. Thanks for the GL.
DeleteWell mary I know all about working on attitude and behaviors of kids/young adults! And if you saying is true then being a parent must be worth it because we have to work HARD for it! Now congrats on your 96 percent!!! Have a great week ;-)
ReplyDeleteYes, Sophie I know you know. It's not as easy as they say and really I wish I had some directions to know what I should and shouldn't say sometimes. A little filter to help me with them both. Have a great week!
DeleteI can relate to issues with daughters...LOL. Good luck with that, and enjoy your upcoming week. Thanks for visiting my blog.
ReplyDeleteThis is way harder with my second then with my first for some reason. Thanks and you enjoy too.
DeleteI imagine blogging while in school is really hard. My reading pretty much happened between semesters when I was in college.
ReplyDeleteYes, that seems to be what is going on with me too. Not much time to read during the semester cause I am way to busy reading my texts and studying etc for school. I try the best I can. =)
DeleteGood luck with your chemistry test! And A Broken Reality looks like something I'd like. I'll have to take a closer peek. :)
ReplyDeleteLove that cover of Blesses!
Thanks Greg! It's not bad at all - that is the one I am reading when I can currently. The blog tour is the end of the month so I am hoping to have it finished next weekend. =) Have a wonderful week.
DeleteGood luck with your classes!! Hopefully things get better with your daughter. Have a good week!
ReplyDeleteBeen a much better week than the last one, definitely see things going smoother moving forward. Grats on the high scores. Lovely roundup. Will keep on visiting
ReplyDeleteI hope things are looking better with your daughter, and WOW! You crushed your microbiology test. Good luck with Chem. I am sure you will crush that as well. Yeah! You got Our Year of Maybe. That was an emotional roller coaster for me, but really good.
ReplyDeleteGood luck on your test and I hope your school work all goes well. My daughter is also at community college until she gets through some health stuff and figures out her path. She's really excellent at school but her health causes some issues. Hopefully this path works well for your daughter. I have considered Gilded Wolves with its pretty cover. Enjoy your week and what reading you can do. Take care of yourself. Anne - Books of My Heart
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the great test score. Sounds like you have a lot going on. Parenting is hard enough without having other things in the background. How old is your younger daughter?
ReplyDeleteThat Gilded Wolves cover is very attractive!
ReplyDeleteAnd kids. Phew. Always something, whether it's amazing or not-so-great.
Enjoy your reading this week!
It's always a worry when the wheels drop off your children's lives - I hope she manages to get the help you need. Congratulations on the your test result - very impressive! I've read and reviewed The Gilded Wolves and loved it, so I hope you also enjoy it. Have a great week, Mary:).
ReplyDeleteI hope she get the help she needs. We had that with my son, I had to have services come to check on him and he also spent 3 1/2 weeks in the hospital so they can get his meds correct. It was the worst 3 1/2 weeks of my life but it helped. We have an emergency mobile unit that we can call but so far he is going very good.
ReplyDeleteI just got The Gilded Wolves too, It was one of my most anticipated for this year. I hope we both love it.
Have a great week, Mary! Happy Reading! xx
I recently discovered 'Girls like you' as well, I love it so much!! Blessed intrigues me, I can't wait to read your review!
ReplyDeleteWow, awesome job on your test! The Gilded Wolves is one I'm really looking forward to.
ReplyDeleteUh I want to buy Stain soon! The cover is just so beautiful to resist isn't it?
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!

Great score on your test! And so many lovely books. I want to go check out A Broken Reality. Looks thrilling.
ReplyDeleteI hope things calm down with your daughter and congrats to your oldest for making a college plan. Nice job on the test! I hope you have a great week and enjoy all of your new books.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad things are improving with your daughter. I have to congratulate you on how you dealt with it. A lot of parents try to ignore issues like that but you guys had the guts to admit you needed help and you are getting it sorted which I think is a sign of great parents! You and your daughter will benefit greatly from this!
