Sundays In Bed With... / Weekly Wrap Up

Sundays in Bed With… #MyWeeklyWrapUp [256]

Dini @ dinipandareads14 Comments

We’re back with another Sundays in Bed With… meme! This meme dares to ask you what book has been in your bed this morning and is hosted by Midnight Book Girl. Come share what book you’ve spent your time reading in bed or wish you had time to read today.

I’ve spent my Sunday reading a gothic fantasy and a romance: Starling House and Rare Blend. I’m buddy reading Starling House with Leslie and Julie, and I’m enjoying it so much but it’s defo a daytime read cos it’s doing a great job of creeping me out, lol. To balance the creepy I picked up Rare Blend after seeing a review yesterday Jeeve Reads Romance. I love the angst, mutual pining, and slow burn so far!

What book are you spending your Sunday in bed with?

How is everyone doing? I know that this past week has hit hard for many fellow bloggers and I want to say that if you ever need a safe space to let it all out, to talk, or to just simply be, you can always DM me wherever! 🫂 Earlier this week I revived my Bluesky account and it’s so lovely over there! The feeds are peaceful and calm, and people aren’t coming in with toxic attitudes, which is so refreshing compared to the mess that is the bird app. I’m still on the bird app cos many friends still do but I’ll balance it with time spent where the sky is blue. 🦋 If you want to join us over there, I’m dinipandareads.bsky.social and I’d love to connect. 💜

Other than that, I spent the whole week working from home. My chest was hurting so bad from my bronchi and everyone at the office has been getting sick lately so my boss told me to stay home. It’ll be nice but it’ll also suck to go back to the office tomorrow! 😂 Even with being sick, it was so relaxing and peaceful working from home. On a very high note, it’s finally started raining here! This has been the hottest and driest year and we’ve been parched so I’m happy the rain has arrived. ⛈️

ICYMI here’s what I posted this week:

II HANDS II HEAVEN – beyoncé

I really hope you’re all doing okay and treating yourself with care. Let’s have a great week ahead! 💜

  1. Sorry to hear you are under the weather. I hope you are feeling better. It’s nice they let you WFH. I think, if one can do their job from home, they should never be in office when they have a cold or virus. Twitter has always been toxic. I deleted FB in 2016, and stepped back from Twitter during the pandemic. I only keep my account for NJ Transit updates. IG may be the next to go with all the garbage going on there.

    • I am feeling much better now thanks! Just counting down the days until this cough finally disappears. My job is thankfully pretty flexible when it comes to health and family related things. As long as we do the work at the end of the day/week, it’s all good! I still have my FB active but I don’t think I’ve properly been on it or posted there for close to 6-7 years now? It just holds so many past memories, I’m not ready to let it go just yet, lol. I still have IG but am rarely on there although I have bouts of activeness. I think Bluesky is a lovely place so far and I hope it stays that way 🙂

    • Thanks, Celeste! I’m already feeling heaps better but I’m counting down the days until this cough disappears. I haven’t even touched Threads because I’m rarely on IG as it is but I’ve heard the drama there gets even worse than Twitter and I cannot even fathom dealing with that kind of energy. Bluesky is quiet in comparison to Twitter but it’s so peaceful too. I hope to build up the habit of engaging there more 🙂

  3. I revived my bsky account a day or so ago and try to keep it up. Only use FB for some blogging groups with eventually getting some tipps or sth. Haven’t used Twitter in a while and don’t plan to, however I’m twisted about IG. It just sucks to stay recognized, Ig.

    Get better soon!

    • It has been so long since I’ve been on FB. That was one of the first places that I ‘grew out of’ for various reasons and it’s slowly happening to almost all social media platforms I have. I hope BlueSky remains the good place 🤣 IG is definitely frustrating if you don’t post regularly and engage frequently. I used to be obsessed until I burned out and then recognised that it’s just not worth it to me, lol.

      • Yeah, I get it. Was similar for me with IG as well. Besides, I can’t even decide on an aesthetic theme ‘nd how to manage blog posting and social media at the same time. At least I finally got the feature for scheduling posts 😂

        I’m mostly for the reading tours on FB in a group to communicate, or for the ABC challenge to maybe get motivated n that stuff but I haven’t even installed the app 😂

  6. Sorry to hear you’ve been feeling under the weather but glad you were able to work from home and hope you’re feeling better by now!

    I didn’t know about Bluesky but I should check it out! I’m hardly on the bird app anymore and I’ll probably delete my profile there soon enough as it really is a toxic place.

    • Thanks, Lindsey! I’m doing much better now 🙂 And YES, Bluesky is like that bird app back when it was good? Haha. It’s so calm and lovely there actually. People are on there to genuinely connect and everyone’s so nice! It’s such a refreshing change in comparison 🙂
