Welcome to Litsy!

Thanks for the tag @Eggs

🎃 Hanging with my 2 1/2 year old granddaughter

🎃🎃 I would love to meet Stassi and Beau from Vanderpump Rules, and just hang out sipping cocktails.

🎃🎃🎃 Books. I enjoy putting just the right book into just the right hands.

#WondrousWednesday

1. Not too often
2. Too many to say but HP will be there
3. Haunted houses, family dramas, second chance romances, magical/enchanted libraries there are few more.
4. I could take some quality time for myself❤️

Thank you @Eggs

1. I used to be a news hawk, reading several weekly and monthly magazines. Between Trump, the 2020 election and covid, I cancelled most of my subscription. Only get National Geo, Food Network magazine and Locus.
2. A few, some on Litsy, most not as avid a reader as I am.
3. A book I'll think about for days after finishing it, and recommend to everyone else.
4. I'm grateful to be alive and healthy.
#wonderouswednesday @Eggs

1. Like many Littens, I remember the Challenger explosion. I also got to attend the World‘s Fair in 1982 when I was about 6. Used to think I dreamed it & wasn‘t a real memory until parents talked about it a few years ago. Another good event was watching Mary Lou Retton win at the Olympics.
2. Library. If you look at my book pile though, you would think the bookstore. 😂
3. Unsure-I know I read The Little Princess a lot.

#wondrouswednesday @Eggs

1. A little bit of everything. Pop, 90s/00 R&B, and showtunes are always in the rotation.
2. I took a cruise a couple of years ago and I didn‘t want to come back. The staff took such good care of us, cleaning, constant food, entertainment, off shopping adventures. I loved it.
3. Probably 5-10. The elementary school days were drama free.
4. My nieces and nephews. They can always make me laugh.

1 - When I was 4, I wanted to be a bird 😂 When I was 10, I wanted to be an actress, but planned to go to law school first so I'd have a career to fall back on in case I didn't make it in Hollywood. 🤣 I never tried to be an actress (or a bird!), but I am a lawyer now! ⚖️

2 - snooze x a million 😴

3 - Don‘t sweat the small stuff. Also, when I am doubting myself I ask, “What would a mediocre white man do?”

4 - 🚒 red!

#wondrouswednesday @Eggs

1. Audiobook. I love that I can enjoy a book while doing almost anything.
2. Bathroom at work. Sorry work, but sometimes you just have-to-know-what-happens-next. 🤷🏻‍♀️
3. Finally starting to feel more like Spring. In the 40‘s and people are in shorts and t-shirts. Outside. 🤣

#wondrouswednesday @Eggs

1. Paperbacks mostly, although audiobooks have come a close second the last couple of years.
2. Sitting on pallets in the back of a farm supply store.
3. I'm grateful for the doctor who stitched up my foot yesterday when I gashed it on some broken glass.

4. Yes - to a select few.
#WondrousWednesday @Eggs

1. The original Halloween

3. Dairy Queen in high school. Because, Dairy Queen
4. 👍
@Eggs #wondrouswednesday

1. No. Here‘s an unpopular opinion: I don‘t really like Halloween. I don‘t like being scared. Don‘t hate me, Litsy!
2. No. See above answer.
3. I would like to get a wreath of fall leaves for my front door.
4. Will do! #WondrousWednesday @Eggs

1. My dogs looking out the window together. #DogsOfLitsy
2. Baking, cooking, reading, or napping if I‘m really lucky.
3. The hubs and I will be married 14 years this Monday, so we‘ll probably do something to celebrate this weekend.

1. If you follow me on IG, this may look familiar... #SebastianKitty resting on my legs. #catsoflitsy

3. Not anything at the moment - my kind of weekend!

1. Eating with their mouth open, or talking with food in their mouth

3. Anyone who makes the best of what life has given them. People like Dave Sykes or Jessica Cox - explained in comments.

#wondrouswednesday @Eggs

📚 Hmm. As I finish a book, I usually just get an urge that there is one book in particular I want to read next. 🤷‍♀️
📚 When I lived in Washington, DC, I read every day on the Metro. Now I live in a car culture, so I listen to audiobooks when I‘m in transit.
📚 Television, Internet
📚 Nothing reading-specific, but I do always like a handful of M&M‘s.
📚 Oh dear, this is late, but I‘m tagging @Kloves2read and @Jinster

#WondrousWednesday @Eggs

1. I read fiction and nonfiction simultaneously. For my nonfiction reads, I usually pursue a specific challenge or subject. For my fiction reads, I‘m totally a mood reader.
2. Every day! My commute on the train is an hour each way, 5 days a week. That‘s 10 hours of dedicated reading time each week. 😊
3. Sadly, TV 🙁
4. Tea. Lots and lots of tea.
5. @bbdeese @JMEdwards @ulrichyumiodd

4. Coffee or wine depending on the time of day. Usually I don‘t snack when reading.
5. @catebutler @LiterRohde @Amiable @charl08

4. No.
5. I tag anyone who wants to play!

2. Nothing
3. I have a flash drive with all my grandma's recipes. That's my go-to.

🍭🍭 Gemini
🍭🍭🍭 Harper Lee. To Kill A Mockingbird has been my favorite book since the 7th grade. Atticus isn't the direct reason I became a lawyer, but it probably contributed
