I had a minute, so I thought I’d pop in and do Top Ten Tuesday, hosted by Jana @ That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s topic: Binge Worthy TV shows. So to be fair, I don’t watch that much television. We usually do one show at a time, and watch them once the season is … More Binge Worthy TV Shows | Top Ten Tuesday
Update: I’m only about 16 pages into Ghost Boys. I had some challenges with the audiobook and figuring out the format of the text, so I put it on hold until I got home. That meant there was a lot of singing during the two hours I spent in the car by myself today. Today’s … More Bout of Books 22.3

It seems to keep slipping through my fingers while I’m doing other things. Like writing. I wanted to pop in and say that I’m almost ready with … More A Backlog of Book Reviews

And that’s really all I … More Moving House
