I did a little extra book sales reporting this week...just trying to help "catch fraud" in our government. 🤣

✌️🕊️

I swear, I was going to try and resist. I told myself only bring home the things I ABSOLUTELY WANT TO READ... So once again the TBR has reached triple digits.

To quote the baddest nerd villains- Resistance is Futile.

Not to mention the world is on fire, so...

✌️🌈🕊️❤️ My friends

Lots of red today on ye olde glucose monitor... In a direction I'm not used to. Good thing healthcare in this country isn't under fire! 🤣😡🤦😱🖕

Take care of yourselves, loves. Body & Mind. Don't be like me and try to power through "bad days". Listen to your body.

✌️🌈🕊️❤️

Office work done for the day, so rainy day reading and coloring time commencing.

And, YES, that IS an ABBOTT ELEMENTARY coloring book you can get from your friendly local bookshop.

✌️🕊️🌈❤️

Because we need cuteness right now. Squirrely Jr. enjoying brunch.

Time to dive back into "serious reading" for next week's book club.

Tough & timely discussion on race, racism, and democracy/voting in our first Conscious Reads meeting of the year.

Haven't posted in a bit. Life. Ya know. But here's me being a tease.

Blind Date books are gonna be in the shop next week. ❤️📚🎁

Thank you HU for the quick response. I didn't want to have to pretend I wasn't an alum.

Wish more institutions, businesses, etc. would stand up and speak out.

I don't have a "candle problem". It's completely "normal" to have a dozen different scented candles in your desk. Right? Asking for a friend ... that's going all in on hygge this year. 😁

After 20 years in the biz, it's rare an advance reader copy excites me this much. But my GenX TV addict cozy mystery heart is a flutter!

Oh no! I almost missed #squirrel appreciation day! Posting my recent tattoo...which is entirely a squirrel appreciation. Inspired by old Richard Scarry illustrations.

So, you're on #Bluesky to get away from the oligarchy...can I interest you in @thestorygraph.com ? A female bi-poc owned reading tracker? Cause ya know GR is owned by Beelzebub Bezos, right? And he uses your info and sells it.

Time to disentangle yourself from the Evil River Empire!

I'm reading for an upcoming book club...and this sentence is sticking out to me. "...when whyte voters are asked to defend wh!teness, wh!teness often fails to defend, honor, or restore them."

I think a bunch of folx will be finding this out the hard way, soon. Very soon.

It was tattoo o'clock yesterday. Went big and cute. Hurts like a...

Quarterly Endo visit. Apparently my body isn't reacting to the new fancy meds like everyone else's. So a new one to try. Going old school with a pre- jardiance/metformin/ozemp drug.

But I DID make my doctor laugh with this shirt today. I mean if you can't joke in the face of chronic illness...

We have hit that stage of my new hermit life where I have 4 books I'm actively reading. My "bed" book, my book club book, my for fun romance, and my listen while working book.

I seriously doubt I'll emerge from my cozy cocoon anytime soon. It's much better than the dumpster fire in the news.
