I love books.

I love used books.

I love used book sales at my local library.

Here's the loot.

The awesome part is that I got 4 books that I needed for my summer recommended reading list (for my English lit classes next term)

Grant and I have a new roommate. He’s messy, clingy, and doesn’t help with the mortgage, but he’s also incredibly sweet, loving, and loyal. Meet Ragnar!

Happy Fourth of July

Jul 4, 2020

The Fourth of July was always a holiday I looked forward to as a kid. It meant packing up our picnic blanket in the afternoon and staking out a good spot in our city park, which would be packed with hundreds of people by nightfall.

There are real, concrete steps to make sure our fellow human beings are treated with dignity.

Quarantine Life: Day 72, Thriving vs. Surviving in Lockdown

May 27, 2020

t wasn’t until recently that I reflected deeper on what I expect from this shelter-in-place experience. Maybe it’s ok not to tick off every single item on my ambitious list. Maybe it’s ok just to veg and binge watch series after series (I’m looking at you, Netflix, Hulu, Starz, and Prime). Maybe this time at home isn’t necessarily about thriving, but surviving— focusing on wellness and being kinder and more forgiving toward ourselves and others. That shift in perspective has helped me adjust my expectations. I have my health and wellbeing. If I can accomplish a few goals on the side, then that’s icing on the cake.
