Outfit: Sweater and Shorts

I wanted to start a new column where I put together different outfits whether it's seasonal or for various occasions. So for my first post, I found this really cute beige sweater with black and white Scottish Terriers on it. I thought it would be cute with a pair of blackish gray corduroy shorts.

Although it's Fall, I picked shorts because the weather is still sort of warm with a bit of coolness to it. You could also add tights to the look for additional warmth. If you're not interested in shorts, you could easily pair the sweater with jeans, pants, skirts or leggings. I really thought this would be a cute outfit.

What's On Tonight (Monday 10/14): 9-1-1: Lone Star, Superman & Lois, Rescue: Hi-Surf and Brilliant Minds

It's Monday! What are you watching tonight?

It's my usual Monday lineup with: 9-1-1: Lone Star, Superman & Lois, Rescue: Hi-Surf and Brilliant Minds. For 9-1-1: Lone Star, I wonder if newly promoted Lieutenant, Paul Strickland is nervous and is second guessing himself. Because Paul has always been shown as smart take charge character, so I'm hoping that whatever confidence issue will be resolved in this episode. For Superman & Lois, it looks like Natalie and her dad are going to try to take on Doomsday. I just hope they survive the fight.

Now Rescue: Hi-Surf has rookie lifeguard Hina in a difficult rescue. I wonder if they person she tried to rescue was still able to be saved? Hopefully, she doesn't lose her job because unfortunate accident. And finally with Brilliant Minds, it looks like Doctor Wolf is going to really immerse himself into his patient's state of mind to figure what happened to her.

I'm really enjoying watching all four of these shows.

What's On Tonight (Sunday 10/13): Tracker

Happy Sunday!

Tonight is the highly anticipated return of Tracker with the premiere of the second season. I really loved the first season and Colter Shaw is an interesting character. He's a bit of a loner, however he does get help from a close circle of friends. Which results in him finding a lot of missing people.

The trailer for season two looks good. And it looks like the cases are going to be just as interesting and intense as they were in the first season.

Video: Janine Teagues and Gregory Eddie's Dates (Abbott Elementary)

In my latest Fandom Friday post, I wrote about Abbott Elementary's Janine Teagues and Gregory Eddie's newfound relationship in the fourth season premeire episode Back to School. As well as how cute and adorable their dates were which were shown in a montage scenes. And thanks to finding this video by BreeStarEdits, I can post it.

So in the montage, Janine and Gregory's dates were of them going: out to dinner, to the museum, the movie theatre and enjoying outdoor dates. All these sweet and romantic moments allowing them to get to know each other as more than just friends. Because being in a romantic relationship will be so much more different than the years of friendship that they had. But what I love about friends-to-lovers, is that their friendship is still there. It's just the romance enhances it.

So many of us fans had been waiting for Janine and Gregory to get together. I didn't think it was going to happen, that is until it finally happened at the end of last season finale. It's just so amazing when one of your favorite non-canon couples finally goes canon. Which is why I can't wait to see how their relationship will continue to develop throughout this new season.

What's On Tonight (Friday 10/11): Joan

I'm totally cutting it close posting this but there's a new episode of Joan on tonight. I guess depending on where you, the show was moved to Friday. I liked the first episode, Joan's story is interesting because she's fallen back into being a thief. I wonder how etangled she's going to get because I thought the goal was to get back on her feet and get her daughter back. But if she ends up getting arrested, she's most likely will lose her daughter. I'm looking forward to seeing tonight's episode, it looks like it's going to be good.

Fandom Friday: Random Fandom Thoughts #44: Superman & Lois, Abbott Elementary and Rescue: Hi-Surf


Happy Friday! Here are a few fandom thoughts that have been on my mind:

- The first two episodes of the fourth season of Superman & Lois are so heartbreaking but oh so good. Lois Lane and her sons Jordan and Jonathan are trying to deal with the death of Superman/Clark Kent while also having to deal with a very vindicative Lex Luthor who is the reason why Superman is dead. I think at some point grief is going to hit Lois hard because right now she's trying to hold it all together but sooner or later she's going to be dealing with it.

I thought Jordan had a good idea of looking for their dad's heart but his twin brother Jon was right that Lex had set a trap. But my thought is that Lex didn't stomp on Clark's heart that was some kind of decoy heart. I believe Clark's heart was in that briefcase or whatever that case or container was that Lex was looking at before Amanda McCoy arrived at Lex's house. I could be wrong but it just seemed too easy to destroy a Krytopian's heart. I guess I'll see how the rest of this final season goes but I think they will get Clark's heart back to be able to revive him.



- I loved seeing the montage of all the cute and adorable dates Janine Teague and Gregory Eddie went on the Abbott Elementary fourth season premiere episode. And the dates they were planning, it's just so cute. I hope we get to see more of their dates as the season continues. I can't wait to see how their relationship will grow and develop further because right now they are still in the early stages. I'm sure they will have a few issues along the way but for now they are sweet and happy getting to know each other.



- I really like Rescue: Hi-Surf and I'm trying to figure when Captain Harlan "Sonny" Jennings is going to get help for his grief. It's getting worse and he truly needs to talk with a therapist about it. I think Emily "Em" Wright and Will Ready (I believe that's his last name) have really good chemistry. And I'm sure at some point they will get together. Which is why I can't see Will getting married to his fiance Julie (I think that's her name). Because what little of their relationship that's been show, I don't see them working out.

What's On Tonight (Wednesday 10/9): Chicago Fire and Abbott Elementary

What are you watching tonight? For me it's just choosing between whether to watch or tape Chicago Fire and Abbott Elementary. Apparently, Joan has been moved to Friday night well at least where I live. Anyway, I'll probably watch Abbott Elementary since it's the premeire of the fourth season. I can't wait to see how Janine Teague and Gregory Eddie relationship has progressed since their kiss back in the third season finale.

I also want to see Chicago Fire because I wonder if it's either going to be Stella Kidd or Jack Damon who is going to be fired. I really get a sense that that the new Captain really doesn't like Stella. So, I wouldn't be surprised if he fired her. But if he does, I can see her fighting to get her job back.

What's On Tonight (Tuesday 10/8): Murder in a Small Town, High Potential and The Irrational

My Tuesday night line up is quickly becoming one of my favorites because it's a night of mysteries. First is Murder in a Small Town, I am loving this show. It's like a mini movie every week with interesting mysteries. Then later, I have to figure out which show to watch and which one to tape: High Potential or The Irrational.

High Potential returns after a short break while tonight is the second season premiere of The Irrational. Both shows are really good, so either one I pick to watch I'm sure I won't be disappointed. Which is why I'm really thinking of going with season premiere of The Irrational, I'll see.

What's On Tonight (Monday 10/7): 9-1-1: Lone Star, Superman & Lois, Rescue: Hi-Surf and Brilliant Minds

Happy Monday! What are you watching tonight?

I added another show to my Monday night line up, Superman & Lois. This is the fourth and final season for the show which initially was supposed premiere on Thursday, October 17th with a two hour back to back premiere. However, the show was moved over to Monday for an earlier premiere. Not sure why but Thursday is also a pretty busy with a lot of shows on that night as well.

Now, I just have to figure out whether to watch or tape Superman & Lois or 9-1-1: Lone Star and Rescue: Hi-Surf. Superman & Lois is going to be so good with everyone dealing with the death of Superman. While 9-1-1: Lone Star continues with the final part of the three part train derailment story and it also looks like it's going to be really good. The same goes for Rescue: Hi-Surf with the lifeguards dealing with various emergencies. While Will decides whether he wants to be a firefighter. I can see him deciding to leave but then realize he rather stay a lifeguard, I guess we'll see. The final show is Brilliant Minds, this show continues to be so good. And it looks like the doctors will have two very interesting patients to help.

On My List: October 7th: Books and Heartstopper

It's been a while since I've posted an On My List, especially since there are so many things on my list. Anyway, here is a small list of some the books and a TV show that I'm really interested in reading and watching.

Books I Want to Read:

From a dark supernatural fantasy to a foodie cozy mystery to a cozy witchy supernatural romantic comedy, I so want to read these three books. They each seem like such good reads. The first book has magic that's seems like it's haunting and life changing. While the second book has small town murder mystery with the new resident as the prime suspect. And finally, a witch is looking for a new love but is her former love helping or hindering the processes.


Book: The Sun and the Void (The Warring Gods book #1) by Gabriela Romero Lacruz

Description:

Two women embark on a unforgettable quest into a world of dark gods and ancient magic in this sweeping fantasy debut inspired by the history and folklore of colonial South America.

Reina is desperate.

Stuck on the edges of society, Reina’s only hope lies in an invitation from a grandmother she’s never met. But the journey to her is dangerous, and prayer can’t always avert disaster.

Attacked by creatures that stalk the mountains, Reina is on the verge of death until her grandmother, a dark sorceress, intervenes. Now dependent on the Doña’s magic for her life, Reina will do anything to earn—and keep—her favor. Even the bidding of an ancient god who whispers to her at night.

Eva Kesaré is unwanted.

Illegitimate and of mixed heritage, Eva is her family’s shame. She tries to be the perfect daughter, but Eva is hiding a secret: Magic calls to her.

Eva knows she should fight the temptation. Magic is the sign of the dark god, and using it is punishable by death. Yet it’s hard to ignore power when it has always been denied you. Eva is walking a dangerous path. And in the end, she’ll become something she never imagined.
