After a miserable last week with a horrible chest cold, I went back to the walk in clinic on Sunday. I have pneumonia.
Today, I actually am starting to feel human again.
But we're still in the middle of the renovation. Yes. Four weeks later. Today they painted. I really do like the color I picked for the bathroom. I wish to GOD that they would be done next week. Sigh. No kitchen; no bathroom upstairs.
But my chances of surviving a few days of a zombie apocalypse are better.
I'm also starting to read again.
OBSIDIO by Amie Kaufman & Jay Kristoff. 3rd of Illuminae trilogy.
Kady, Ezra, Hanna, and Nik narrowly escaped with their lives from the attacks on Heimdall station and now find themselves crammed with 2,000 refugees on the container ship, Mao. With the jump station destroyed and their resources scarce, the only option is to return to Kerenza--but who knows what they'll find seven months after the invasion? Meanwhile, Kady's cousin, Asha, survived the initial BeiTech assault and has joined Kerenza's ragtag underground resistance. When Rhys--an old flame from Asha's past--reappears on Kerenza, the two find themselves on opposite sides of the conflict. With time running out, a final battle will be waged on land and in space, heros will fall, and hearts will be broken.
And INTO THE FIRE by Elizabeth Moon. 2nd of Vatta's Peace duology.
Ky beats sabotage, betrayal, and the unforgiving elements to lead a ragtag group of crash survivors to safety on a remote arctic island. And she cheats death after uncovering secrets someone is hell-bent on protecting. But the worst is far from over when Ky discovers the headquarters of a vast conspiracy against her family and the heart of the planet’s government itself. With their base of operations breached, the plotters have no choice but to gamble everything on an audacious throw of the dice. Even so, the odds are stacked against Ky. When her official report on the crash and its aftermath goes missing—along with the men and women she rescued—Ky realizes that her mysterious enemies are more powerful and dangerous than she imagined. Now, targeted by faceless assassins, Ky and her family—along with her fiancé, Rafe—must battle to reclaim the upper hand and unmask the lethal cabal closing in on them with murderous intent.
Nothing on TV for me tonight. Steve has the range. I'll order a pizza and read and go to bed.
Have a good one
Much love,
PK the Bookeemonster
