Not so happy…

In addition to the fiction books I’ve been reading, I’ve also been trying to read more nonfiction. It’s not too bad so far.

I’ve liked some books. Haven’t liked others.

However, when I opened the latest used nonfiction I bought, awhile ago, I found out it had been highlighted and written in.

I am most unhappy because I felt this was going to be a keeper book and I wanted to be the one writing in it.

I’ll have to see if work has it.

Anywho’s, this was slightly ranty and I apologize.

I’ll see everyone next week!

Atlantis!

Technically yes, but technically no.

Book 24 in the Atlantis series does have our favorite people in it but it also mostly deals with the Genaii and the ship Shepherd procured for them so many books ago.

Still not a fan of the Genaii (and not just cause of what they did to our favorite Wraith) because they have such a bad mindset.

They started out lying, and we can kind of forgive them for it because the Wraith are scary and their way did keep them safe and able to grow technologically without discovery.

The problem started when they then tried to take over Atlantis and killed people instead of allying with them.

The story would have been completely different had that happened.

Even now, so many books later (you’d think they’d learn) their mindset is very much that of a controlling force. They want to be the ones in charge of the galaxy and can’t seem to understand that the rest of the galaxy doesn’t really want them around.

Just started this one again (getting a ton of books off my TBR shelves too!!) and will keep you all updated!

Have a fantastic week!

Not so tech savvy

I’m sure y’all have seen the new page I did and my Thursday posts.

The posts were supposed to be posted to the new Bible Study page.

🙄

My sister, thank heavens, has a possible solution to my ineptness, but our schedules aren’t syncing for a bit.

I’ll get things worked out but it may be a couple of weeks before that happens.

Sorry!

In the Beginning…

‘In the beginning’ is a great start to any book and the Bible started that trend a long time ago.

However!

Apparently the Bible wasn’t written in chronological order?!?!

Now, according to my mama (as far as she knows) it’s not necessarily big differences. The Gospels (Mathew, Mark, Luke and John) are written during the same time so it’s interesting to think about why they were put in that order than.

Currently, I have King James (KJV), New International (NIV) and New Living (NLT) translations, but non are the chronological type so I’ll have to buy one of those to see what differences there are.

In case anyone is wondering why I have 3 different types, it’s because KJV is what I grew up with and I love the word’s because they’re beautiful!

I was gifted the NIV back in Missionettes (kind of like Girl Scouts but Christian) and my mama bought me the NLT as a Christmas present!

It has a galaxy cover!!!

Until next time may I give to you a consideration?

Consider this: there are UFO’s in the Bible!

Audiobooks!!

Y’all!

You know the audiobooks for SG-1 and Atlantis? I got some for Christmas last year! (Which I would have squee’d about at the time of course).

It’s taken me this long to listen to them because each disc is roughly an hour long and my commute is only 20ish.

Some of y’all are doing the math and it’s not adding up. I understand.

However!

This is Stargate we’re talking about and you really can’t cut these stories off in the middle and not have that mess with your day because you need to know what happens next!

Which is why I’ve been waiting to listen to them until I’m driving an hour or more.

I have one disc of six left (3 per overarching story and each disc it’s own self contained story) and I NEED to know how it ends!!

Problem is I don’t have an hour drive coming up anytime soon…

I might have to bring the CD player out and craft while I listen.

Until next time, think about adopting or fostering a pet from your local shelter, or even volunteering with them!

Ciao!

About that…

I may be depressed again. I don’t feel like doing anything but sleeping.

I spent four hours scrolling through YouTube video’s instead of reading today.

This is sounding familiar and I’m not happy about it so please excuse the posts for awhile. Or lack thereof actually.

Ta.
