Hibernation Catch Up
I feel like I'm finally waking up from my later-winter/early-spring hibernation period. I tend to burrow this time of year - maybe it's the anticipation of spring in New England or maybe it's the exhaustion from trying to push through unattainable new year resolutions, I don't know. But I tend to disappear and then pop... Continue Reading →
Better Than Before by Gretchen Rubin
April was a killer month for me - I'm pretty sure that I was sick for at least three solid weeks of it and I completely fell out of most of my habits. Today is May 1st and I just finished this wonderful books on habits, so I'm thinking about how to find a nice... Continue Reading →

Things That Make Me Pick Up A Book
I read for the atmosphere. If a book has that certain feel to it - I am hooked. Usually it's something that's inherently bookish - like libraries, coffee or tea, cobblestone streets, or ancient old-world vampires. You know. The usual. So read on for what makes my heart go pitter-patter!! A Leather Satchel The Clockmaker's... Continue Reading →
Library Check Out – March 2019
Hi friends! Sorry - I didn't mean to fall off the radar this past week. I wasn't able to make much time for writing, but that opened up time for other things that filled my bucket - I hope to share more about that soon. But we're approaching the end of March, so it's the... Continue Reading →
Devotion by Dani Shapiro
"The whole world is a lesson in what’s true. The whole world is a lesson—and the lesson keeps changing." I've had Devotion on my Kindle for several years and only just read it. But, as usual, the universe made sure the timing was perfect. This is Shapiro's memoir on finding and understanding her faith. She... Continue Reading →
