Hello, lovely readers! Remember me? Remember fun? Let's pretend I'm sitting on a chaise relaxing by the lake in this photo. Ha. I survived the 2,200 mile drive from Ann Arbor, but am now ensconced in a utilitarian, extended stay hotel that is to put it kindly, dreary. My poor husband tries to manage Zoom calls at 5am with me sleeping in bed 3’ away. The fire alarm went ... Read More...
June Reading Recap
June. What a month. Normally, this is a recap of my reading, but no matter how I try to stick to the subject of books my brain refuses to cooperate. By this time next week we’ll be starting the 2,200 mile trip from Ann Arbor to Seattle. The unending list of what needs to be done before then is one of the things that has me awake at 4am. But that’s not it, I can power through ... Read More...

So…we’re headed back to Seattle ... Read More...

I'm being optimistic with this March graphic as Michigan is mired in low temperatures right now. Earlier we had 70 degrees, but that was a tease from Mother Nature. Now, the sunshine (and reading) are best enjoyed from inside. A circumstance I'm happy to use as an excuse to curl up on the couch! Dear William supposed to be a memoir about his son’s death from a ... Read More...
Monday Thoughts
Not my usual Monday post, but my head is overflowing with thoughts these days and it’s getting harder to push them away. I decided to trust myself (and all of you) by writing today about something other than books. Namely, life outside the world of reading. It’s a leap, because I’m not a fan of oversharing or platitudes and I may veer into both in the following paragraphs. I’m ... Read More...
