Welcome to The Weekend Post #147! The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted at Caffeinated Reviewer. It’s a chance to share news~ A post to recap the past week on your blog and showcase books and things we have received. Share news about what is coming up on our blog for the week ahead. See rules here: Sunday Post Meme. I will also be joining Deb at Readerbuzz for the Sunday Salon and Marlene of Reading Reality in her meme Stacking The Shelves.
My Week:
It’s been raining much of the week and we have more expected this weekend. Luckily Friday we had a break in the weather and I could get out for a more pleasant walk. I’m ready for warmer temperatures and drier weather.
Aside from running errands and accompanying my Dad for his treatment, it’s been a quiet week. The freezer part of my refrigerator is on its way out and has outlived its life expectancy. We found a replacement on sale and will have it delivered April 1. We’re glad it happened now before any tariffs were applied to the cost. There are presently over two hundred pages worth of items affected by the tariffs thus far. On a bright note, our new federal government and our provincial government are eliminating the carbon tax for consumers. This should reflect in cheaper gas prices which is very much appreciated.
Books I’ve Added to My Shelves This Week:
From Publishers, Netgalley, Edelweiss+ & Libro.fm: None. I’ve been offered several books but they just aren’t a good fit for me right now.
From The Library:
What I’m Watching:
We’ve been binging a Canadian comedy TV show reminiscent of The Goldbergs called Son of a Critch. It’s set in St. John’s Newfoundland in the 1980’s and follows the real life Canadian comedian Mark Critch growing up in an extended family. I’m not sure if this show is available yet elsewhere in the world – let me know if it is!

That’s a wrap on The Weekend Post #147. How was your week?
I wish you a wonderful week ahead!

I’ve read Chamberlain and Hewwit before and enjoyed their books. Glad you are getting a tax break on the gas. Over 200 items on the tariff list? That’s horrible. I hope one day we can return to reasonable governing in the US. Canadians and Americans had a good relationship before this last election.

I agree Tina. It’s time to get this trade war resolved.

I really don’t know about this country anymore. I think it’s going to get worse before better!
I watched every season of Corner Gas a while back and would like to watch it again. I thought it was hilarious!
