A while ago, I made a series of posts where I’d style an outfit to accompany a book I’d read. On Sunday, while deeply immersed in If I Had Your Face by Frances Cha, I looked at the cover of the book and then my sweater. I knew I had to go take some picturesContinue reading If I Had Your Face
I figured it was about time I share how I choose books to read. I am a librarian after all; lucky for me, books happily occupy much of my day. I’m always reading some book, often two, and I usually have an audio book that I’m listening to as well. I try to expose myselfContinue reading Goodreads
This month of May was a little slower on the reading front–probably because I read such bad books. I hate it when that happens. Usually I put a book down if I’m not enjoying it, but three times this month I held out with hopes that the books would get better. Unfortunately they did not.Continue reading What I’ve Been Reading and Watching this May
Let’s start with the Queen first, shall we? And no, I’m not talking about the animated Queen Elizabeth and corgi movie in the theaters. I’m talking about THE queen, Queen Bee, Queen Beyoncé. Wow! Stop everything right now (even reading this blog post!) to go watch the Netflix show Homecoming. It is BEYONd amazing! (SeeContinue reading What I’ve Been Reading and Watching This Spring
There’s been a main attraction this February: Maeve has been in town! It’s always fun when someone comes to visit because we end up taking on the role of tourist with our guest, and that’s what exactly what we’ve been doing with Maeve, my niece and the kids’ cousin. This means there’s been less NetflixContinue reading What I’ve Been Up To This February
This is a family pic from the start of the year, 2019 when we went to some beautiful rice fields in Bali. Some months are sooooo long, and January has been one of those months! It started out just superb; I mean we couldn’t have gone wrong with a new year beginning in Bali. (SeeContinue reading What I’ve Been Up To This January
This was December a year ago. We spent the holidays in Thailand with my sister and her family. What wonderful memories! What a hectic month! December always is–for everyone. It’s such a blur I’m having trouble remembering all that I was up to…. I’ll start with something I love very much: books. BOOKS Then SheContinue reading What I’ve Been Up to This December
It’s rather early this month, but here we are on the last Friday of October. I have to be honest with you my readers: I’ve been looking forward to sharing what I’ve been up to all month long. There has been so much good stuff. I don’t even know when and where or what toContinue reading What I’ve Been Up To This October
Last month I tried out a “What I’ve Been Up To,” post, and I really enjoyed reviewing my month in this way. So, here I am again at the end of September ready to share what I’ve been up to this month. Somehow it’s made what I do in my free time a bit moreContinue reading What I’ve Been Up To This September
A year ago today… WIBUT? it stands for “What I’ve Been Up To.” I’ve never done a post like this, but I always appreciate it when other bloggers so, so I thought I’d give it a try. Maybe it will become a semi regular post, but I wanted to share what I’ve been up toContinue reading What I’ve Been Up To
We went to see Ready Player One this weekend. I’ve been anticipating this movie since I read the amazing book by Ernest Kline last summer. (Here’s my book with an outfit for Ready Player One–I need to start creating these posts again.) Vincent read the book in two days, handed it over to me, andContinue reading Ready Player One
I’m reading again! This is really important since my day job is as a high school librarian after all. So why would I all of a sudden start reading again? Well, I’ve eliminated a past time that was replacing my reading time: Instagram. For the last month I’ve given up on that social media. Well,Continue reading I’m Reading Again–Because I Quit Instagram
