July is officially over, and I hope that the extreme Summer heat will soon follow suit. I know we probably still have another month of 90 and 100° heat, but I am dreaming of the coming days when I will be able to comfortably eat lunch in my car with the windows down, and drive... Continue Reading →
On Saturday, July 25, I achieved my goal of reading 60 books in 2020!! I am so glad that I got this finished before school starts next month (somehow orientation being this Saturday seems both way too soon and not soon enough!). I wanted to have a little fun to celebrate, so I'm doing the... Continue Reading →

I love the Annie Moses Band. Their music is just phenomenal! They're most well-known for their Christmas music, but I love their other music as well. As we're nearly halfway through Summer, this seemed an ideal time to share this song with y'all! For the same reason, it's time for me to check in on... Continue Reading →
I hope you had a wonderful weekend, Readers! I managed a three-day weekend for Fourth of July this year, and while it was not what I anticipated when I first found out I would have three days off, it was definitely good. Last week things became very stressful at work, and being able to be both physically and mentally separated from that environment for a few days was restorative. Many of the reasons for last week's stress do carry over into this week, but I'm hopeful that everyone involved had a chance to relax this weekend and will come back into the situation with a little more peace and perspective.

Taking another dive into my TBR list today! I have gone through so many books already, but my list is still unbearably large. Looks like there are some classics in today's batch, as well as some children's books and at least one that I have no idea what it is. Read on to find out more!
I'm struggling to come up with an interesting intro today, so let's just jump into what I hope to read this month.

I have a lot of feelings and thoughts about the way my country is run and the current state of our society. Many of them are positive, but not all. There is certainly room for improvement, which I believe could realistically happen if more people were inclined to regular times of reflection and deep (especially... Continue Reading →
