Good morning all! I know I’m already lagging behind. I’m not good with making lists and sticking to the list. My book choices fluctuate with the mood and emotional state I find myself in manifesting in ways of feeding into meltdown, pulling myself out of meltdown, feeding my knowledge, feeding my soul (with comedy or
Friends, I picked up a ridiculous five dollar read called Pop Goes the Murder since I don’t get around to many mystery books, especially those with silly titles and funny covers– I grabbed this in an attempt to humor myself into distraction but it’s not working. I am so overwhelmed by the political climate in the
