The Sunday Salon is a Facebook group that has become an
informal week-in-review gathering place for bloggers.
It is also a place to share our thoughts about things of a bookish nature.

A post to recap the past week on your blog, showcase books and things we have received, and share news about what is coming up on our blog for the week ahead.
HAPPY SUNDAY EVERYONE!
I loved watching the Olympics last week, especially the women’s gymnastics. Simone Biles was outstanding. Everyone on the team had interesting stories and things to overcome to compete. In the other sports too. I really enjoyed the in-depth stories of the athletes the network provided and how Snoop Dogg was everywhere cheering. Also, the rapper, Flavor Flav sponsored the men’s and women’s rugby teams. The women won bronze, their first-ever medal.
Friday afternoon we traveled to watch Natalie play in a softball tournament. She pitched 1 inning striking out 2 batters and played first where she did fantastic, and caught a pop-up for the game ending out. They won the game 11-3. That meant they would play yesterday morning. That is when my body let me down. I woke up with a splitting headache, achy joints, and an upset stomach. Mr. Dollycas blames the heat from the day before. All I know is I didn’t start to feel better until about two in the afternoon. I get really upset when I miss these special times with my grandchildren. Her team did win the second game 10-7 and went on to win the 3rd game 9-8 and won the tournament. I could not be more proud of this young lady.

I hope that you are on the mend. We have been dipping in and out of the Olympics. We don’t seem to have great coverage this year (something about the BBC not being given full rights 🤷) but it is ok for us who are just occasionally watching.
Have a great weekend!

I’ve been watching the Olympics, too. They are amazing this year.
I’m sorry you missed the last two games of the tournament, but at least you got to see Natalie play so well in the first game.
Congratulations to your granddaughter and her team!
In a Blink of a Pie! That is too cute. I am a big cozy mystery fan. There are a couple here that I will have to check out. I know you were disappointed to miss your granddaughters game! I am like that with mine too. I am glad that you weren’t down for too long. I am not a fan of the olympics anymore, but I do love Simone Biles. Isn’t she something?!
I’ve been enjoying the Olympics as well. It’s been very fun to watch! Congrats to your granddaughter! The heat can really sneak up on you. Take care!
