I stopped reading a book a day toward the end of the year because I had the cold from hell and a lot of family stuff going on. I would rather play Code Names (a board game) with all my cousins than read a book in the corner all day. First, We Make the Beast… Read More: What you should read next – January 2020 »
I’ve read a lot of books recently. One a day, actually. A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman I wish I had written this book. It’s such a good story.

These are the books I read in November. Becoming by Michelle Obama This is Michelle Obama’s memoir. I didn’t know she had IVF. Or that she failed the bar. She’s a goddess.

How’d you guys do on your November resolutions? Not to brag, but I did pretty well on mine except for forces beyond my control.

September seeped into October and my laptop stayed… Read More: My November 2019 Resolutions »
Say something on social media was a habit on my resolutions chart for approximately a week in August. After eight days, I realized, again, that I despise social media. The number of hearts I receive determined my mood more than I’d like. That’s a silly and unpredictable variant that I can cut out completely. So… Read More: My social media posts »
I’m traveling in September, so I probably won’t be updating my resolutions chart on my blog regularly and I probably won’t be posting as regularly either. But you should still do a resolutions chart because it’s the most fun you can have without a sloth. I imagine sloths are pretty fun. I don’t know why… Read More: Our September 2019 resolutions »
