Wednesday
Half way through a rough week.
On the plus side for me tonight, I have a new episode of The Chosen.
Episode 7.
And then read and then bed. A day, a night ... another day.
Have a good day

Only Tuesday.
Currently reading A COLD DAY IN HELL by Lissa Marie Redmond. 1st of 5 in series featuring Lauren Riley, a cold case homicide detective, in Buffalo, New York.
Lauren Riley is an accomplished detective who has always been on the opposite side of the courtroom from slick defense attorney Frank Violanti. But now he's begging to hire her as a private investigator to help clear his client of murder. At first Lauren refuses, wanting nothing to do with the media circus surrounding the case―until she meets the eighteen-year-old suspect. To keep an innocent teen from life in prison, Lauren must unravel the conflicting evidence and changing stories to get at the buried facts. But the more she digs, the more she discovers that nothing is what it first appears to be. As Lauren puts her career and life in danger, doubt lurks on every corner . . . and so does her stalker.

Over the weekend I finished reading the fantasy by Elizabeth Moon -- also the end of the series.
I started and finished HEIRS AND ASSIGNS by Majorie Eccles Featuring Herbert Reardon, a detective inspector in late 1920s Shropshire, England
November, 1928. Family and friends have gathered at the Shropshire country home of Penrose Llewellyn to celebrate the retired wealthy businessman’s 60th birthday. But the morning after what should have been a convivial supper party, their host is found dead in his bed—and the circumstances look decidedly suspicious. As he questions the victim’s nearest and dearest, DI Herbert Reardon discovers there are several longstanding secrets lurking amongst the Llewellyn clan—and he is convinced that not everyone is telling him the truth, or at least not the whole truth. Those who stand to inherit most from Pen Llewellyn’s will—if it can be found—are under the strongest suspicion, and among them hides a ruthless killer.
Published 2015; 220 pages.
And I started and finished TRANS GALACTIC INSURANCE by Andrew Moriarty. 1st of 4 in Adventures of a Jump Space Accountant series.
The Galactic Empire disappeared a lifetime ago. Jake Stewart doesn't care, he needs to earn a living. He fled his station in the outer Belt, enrolled in the merchant academy, and snagged a scholarship. The future looks bright. But a crooked boss, some paperwork shenanigans, and a freeloading best friend put him in a bind. When he's accused of a murder he didn't commit he goes on the run from the Planetary Militia. There's only his wits and a suspiciously helpful pretty girl between him and jail. Can he trust her to prove his innocence? Or does she have another agenda?

I'm not sure yet what I'll be starting next.
Tonight we have dinner, watch some hockey and Street Outlaws.

I don't have any external plans. Steve was thinking of going ATV-ing again tomorrow. If he does, than I definitely stay home with the boys. If he doesn't, I may spend a couple hours at the bead shop.
I don't really care either way what happens. Just glad for the days off.
The list of the usual: reading, napping, maybe some beading, maybe some cleaning, etc.
Have a good weekend

Monday
Currently reading CROWN OF RENEWAL by Elizabeth Moon. 5th and last (sob) of Legend of Paksenarrion fantasy series.
The mysterious reappearance of magery throughout the land has been met with suspicion, fear, and violence. In the kingdom of Lyonya, Kieri, the half-elven, half-human king, struggles to balance the competing demands of his heritage while fighting a deadly threat to his rule: evil elves linked in some way to the rebirth of magic. Meanwhile, in the neighboring kingdom of Tsaia, a set of ancient artifacts recovered by the former mercenary Dorrin Verrakai may hold the answer to the riddle of magery’s return. Thus Dorrin embarks on a dangerous quest to return these relics of a bygone age to their all-but-mythical place of origin. What she encounters there will change her in unimaginable ways—and spell doom or salvation for the entire world.

No plans this weekend except a haircut. Woot!
My new cellphone arrived today. That was quicker than I was led to believe.
Steve doesn't have anything going on. We're just going to hang out and relax from the week.
Have a good weekend
