Welcome to Litsy!

My joys:

1. Finished “Enchantment” - tagged. Such exquisite writing and a beautiful reminder to notice wonder in your every day.

2. I got a new job! I‘ve been working as a marketing copywriter for 15 years - most recently at John Deere. I recently go head hunted by Bobcat and cannot wait to start! Gonna be amazing.

3. The sun this morning!

4. Made pasta!

5. Watched “No Taste Like Home with Antoni Porowski” - highly recommend!

Almost finished with this one. Hannah Bonam-Young is one of my new favorite authors (I may keep referring to her as Helen Bonham Young and Hannah Bonham Carpenter🤷🏾‍♀️)

4 ⭐ Wow, this is not a boys town press it kind of reads like one. Where you‘re given a problem and ways to deal with it. The refrain in this book is worry worry go away. I don‘t have time for you today. And that actually really works especially with the examples that are given , and that the reaction isn‘t always the same as long as you take time to think about it and know that you can be better. Over all this book works.

For anyone feeling alone, no one understands the deep depression you're trying to just survive another day with, or even the powerful prison that anxiety has locked you away in this book will give you hope, light, and encouragement. Haig really knocks it out of the park describing the #mentalhealth struggles and their manifestations. For anyone suffering in silence please get help. The Stigma is a LIE!! You are worth saving.

This book expresses everything I‘ve been feeling lately. About finding wonder, whimsy, and magic in everyday life. Highly recommend.

Encouraging words for anyone dealing with darkness.

Went to see Matt Haig talk last night and he was very engaging and funny. He talked a lot about his most recent book, his writing process, dogs, recovery and mental health. A really enjoyable night.
