I didn’t run this morning but I did get a run in after work. My pacing was one of the best I’ve had since I got back at it.

Very proud of myself

Mentally I’m already checking out of running tomorrow cause of my cramps and overall bleeeechness. I’m still setting my alarm and going to try but if my head isn’t in it now I’m not hopeful

The first chapter engaged me so I’ve got high hopes.

I want to find a book on their earlier years. I tried reading The House of Medici by Hibbert but it was a bit of a slog for me

I just finished Weir’s Queens of the Conquest. It was my first non-fiction by her and I loved it as much as her fiction.

6 days in a row!! I feel like I’m sleeping better and I am definitely just feeling better. Hoping I can keep it up

Oh my gosh! It’s halfway through October and I haven’t work my knitted Halloween sweater. What is wrong with me?!?

I recently picked up The Lies of Lock Lamora too! I’m excited to check the series out. I’ve only heard good things about it

I am not in a good mood today. I’m just irritable and I’ve had it with everyone

lakedarling.bsky.social @lakedarling.bsky.social · 6d

I’m curious if the next book will be the last. I’d love for her to write books about the other houses someday!

Just wrapped up #HellBent. I’m excited to see what’s next in this series. I could do without some of the potential love interest occurring but that’s life. Overall though I’m really loving this magic system she’s created.

Great day at the Renaissance festival. I can only hope the weather is as good on our next trip

lakedarling.bsky.social @lakedarling.bsky.social · 10d

Got a run in already! I’m trying really hard to start getting back into any sort of exercise so am proud

lakedarling.bsky.social @lakedarling.bsky.social · 10d

What books am I not wanting to buy 😂

I hadn’t realized this was a feature and I’m glad you said something. I always tried to remember to post alt text and would get upset when I hit post and of course immediately realized I didn’t add any. Now that’ll be fixed! At least until mine is mysteriously turned off lol

Finished #NinthHouse tonight! It was a really cool concept and I’m excited to read the second book in the series. I could also go for lots of backstory into each of the houses. A lot of world to build out here if Bardugo chooses to

I just finished up 1916 a book about the Irish fight for freedom during that year and it was fantastic! I’m really inspired to read more about this topic and the subsequent years that encompass this same fight

An appointment became a sole and 7am this morning so I booked it. Just arrived and there are probably 40 people in line in front of me

lakedarling.bsky.social @lakedarling.bsky.social · 18d

It’s noon and I haven’t had coffee.
