Let's talk body-switching and time travel, shall we?

If you must mood and allergy, then let it be with flowers and coffee and sunshine…

No, that’s not dirt.
It’s HAY.

So, as it turns out, it WASN’T in the couch.

You say clutter, he says best! Decor! Ever!

Let bouquet picking season begin.
Just as good as I was hoping. Except I hope it’s not the last one. But I think maybe it almost has to be. #guessilljusthavetoreread #beingajaneaustenmystery
Whipped through this delightful #beingajaneaustenmystery a while back. Remembered to post it this morning when I got my copy of the brand new one… #rubbinghandstogether #nosorrynotavailableimreading
One of these books is not like the others… 📚
Much of what I’m planning to@read this year won’t show up in the form of finished books. Oh, I’m still reading books. Just…differently. Sometimes I get lost in the goals, so I’m leaning in a bit to what reading was like before challenges and focuses and other people’s recs. 📚 I’d call these all valuable, though none a favorite. 📚 What have you been reading?
I could’ve read this in one sitting, but instead, I savored it chunk by chunk. That’s the beauty of the #handylittleguide series from @osvcatholicbooks and this particular gem on prayer by @franciscanmom. Take it all at once or in bite-sized bits between loads of laundry. The wisdom that it embodies will do you good regardless. Highly recommended.
Glad I read this not long after the precious (Meg & Jo)…they are almost one book (probably a publication decision there). Enjoyed this, and that’s IT: I’m reading Little Women next. How about you? What have you been reading?
#bethandamy #littlewomenfandom
When my daughter recommends a book, it’s usually a home run. This was no different…reminded me, in some ways, of the disorientation of watching Sixth Sense. Maybe there’s some figuring this out ahead of time, but it’s probably too late once you do. Quite a read.
