This is my own version of a weekly book haul and all things new on fuonlyknew.
I’m also linking up with The Sunday Post hosted by Kimberly @Caffeinated Book Reviewer.
Some chit chat.
Happy Mother’s Day to all of you moms!
This week was crazy busy a work. And HOT!!!! Around 90 each day. Guess what I did? Every day I’d come home from work, throw on my swim suit and head right to the pool. The water temp is the low 80s so it feels so cool when I get in.
I’ve got in a lot of reading. And I’m now writing a bunch of reviews so I can get ahead on bogging for the summer. And I’ve continued to watch The Terror. It’s really ramping up. Also watching new episodes of The Doctor Blake Mysteries. Finally back on! And bot did they get me with that one episode. If you watch this, I;m sure you know which one I’m talking about. And I watched the first season of The Rain. Anybody else watching it? What do you think?
And now for my weekly plant update!
They are still growing! The leaves are now all the way up to my chest.
This is my largest Sega. I was worried that it wouldn’t be growing new leaves. It sometimes skips a year.
But then…. this!
The tendrils are super soft and fluffy. I’m thinking this is the beginning of a huge seed bowl. yippee! Free segas. It will be fun to show you how they develop and grow. It’s really weird looking.
And some of you were wondering about my banana trees.
Some are now already up to the roof line!
And here are some other shrubs stating to bloom. Pretty blue blossoms that form into huge balls.
And I have no idea what this is but the colors are so lovely.
And my Yucca is going crazy. It’s gotten huge and there are a bunch of them. You have to be careful around these. If you get stuck by one it hurts like the dickens.
They also grow every which way. I had a couple I had to cut back because they grew horizontal along the ground. I have these tucked up close to the house so I don’t get poked when I walk by. They are about 9 feet tall. They get a glorious bloom but it seems to only happen every few years. I’m hoping it will this year so I can show you.
That’s all folks.
Have a fabulous Sunday!

My new books this week.
I went a bit crazy this week. Most of these are eBooks. Some I bought and some were freebies. I just couldn’t help myself. LOL
And just look at these beauties! I won this box of books giveaway from Sara on her blog Forever 17.
Thanks, Sara!! I’ll be gobbling this up out by the pool.

And this week I won’t be sharing the usual batch of free books. I’ve been getting up early and heading right outside to read and enjoy nature. Plus, I’ve been sending every day in the pool. I’ll be back to sharing them next week!
The water temp is a cool low 80s. Just the way I like it!
And Quigley got a bath.
As soon as I was done he had to go roll around and get dirty again. LOL He’s that strange blob in the sun. I would have got a better picture but he would stand up when I got closer. Had to drop my float and snap this quickie when he wasn’t looking.
