Hi friends, welcome back! We’ve made it through another month and another quarter of 2024. We are rapidly approaching the time when I will need to think about goals for 2025 … but I’m not there yet. Instead, join me for a quick overview of how September went. I’ll likely also take a look at... Continue Reading →
Happy September, everyone! September is supposed to signal the start of autumn here in the US. Of course, that isn’t typically true for us here in the desert southwest.

(For original: click HERE). As of today, I officially have 140 books on my TBR. That’s after reading... Continue Reading →
It’s officially MAY. Temperatures in my neck of the woods are regularly going over 90 degrees Fahrenheit and headed for that dreaded 100.
