What I Read in January
I can't believe the first month of 2026 is already over. I also can't believe I had such a solid start to my year of reading. I wasn't sure what to expect when I set a slightly higher goal of 60 books for the year, but so far it seems to be working out fine. Books I finished…

Starting to think our little community cat we brought into the basement to shelter her from the cold and snow has decided to domesticate herself.

People don't make their soup in a cauldron over an open fire under a full moon with the sound of wolves in the distance anymore, and honestly, I think that’s a shame.

I'm used to high snowfall estimates that decrease a bit as the storm approaches and finally arrives. I was not prepared to see our predicted snowfall total jump up to 10-15 inches this morning.

Art and writing is a form of protest. It is a form of empowerment. It is part of being human.
That is why you write when the world is on fire.

But the bigger reason that you should write and make art, is that your work is someone else's respite.
You don't know who they are. They may be someone in the future. But if you have escaped into a book, or a painting, or a TV show... Someone created that.
You can do that for someone else.

If you're a writer, wondering why you should bother writing with the world on fire. It feels like it's not important, I need you to understand that it is.
Even if it is just because it keeps you moving forward? Even if it only brings YOU joy, that gives you energy to fight & survive.

I rarely see movies in theaters but this weekend I'm seeing all three Lord of the Rings extended editions. I don't know how my body is going to handle it, but my mind is ready.

Until I saw this "challenge" earlier today, I didn't even know how to access ChatGPT.
Having seen how easy it is, I'm even more determined to never use it and mock those who do for their "writing."

Never used ChatGPT for anything. Not once. Never will.
RT if you've never had a tab of ChatGPT open 'just to do quick research'

Sometimes I convince myself this area isn't all that rural. Then we have the local news doing multiple reports on the sightings of an emu that escaped a few days ago.
The emu was just caught and I have no idea what the community will do without this to occupy us.

Can I please stop having issues that require me to contact businesses and speak on the phone? I had to make a call and now I'm waiting for a different person to call me and I'm too much of a nervous wreck to focus on writing like I'd originally wanted to do today.

We managed to get someone out to look at in on Friday, but had to deal with the leaking water the whole time. The water heater was replaced on Saturday, but as soon as the old one was shifted a bit to start the process of removing it, the entire bottom fell out and we ended up with even more water in our basement to deal with.

Our water heater is being replaced. I have no knowledge regarding this type of installation. Why do I still have the urge to go downstairs and ask if they need any help?

Anyone have any wisdom about broken water heaters they can share? Ours broke and I've never dealt with this as a homeowner.
