Goodbye, July! My first full month of real summer in the Midwest. What I loved: fireflies, thunder and rain storms that last for hours. What is not so much: humidity that flattens me but makes my hair explode. And flies. So many flies! Why? The natural world aside, even with the increasing crazy that is America, July was an outstanding reading month. I finished 15 ... Read More...
What I’m Reading in July
I realize we’re already 10 days into July, but honestly, can you really tell at this point? If anything, the news feels as if we’re moving backwards. With no guidance or support from the federal government the first ‘wave’ keeps growing. Who knows what’s next? All of which means, I’m behind in sharing the July reading I’m looking forward to. I’ve already had some ... Read More...

May Reading Recap
It’s getting harder and harder to tell the end of any month. Who knows when one has ended and a new one begun, but apparently May is over. The loss of normalcy and routine means that even as restrictions in Michigan ease I feel unsettled going out and saddened by the fact that what was once normal may not be that way for the foreseeable future. This ongoing uncertainty has led ... Read More...
