Hey Rosetta!'s #CarryMeHome is a Christmas song about a man who wants nothing more than to reach the warmth and comfort of home, and to escape the hardships he faces. https://youtu.be/61EkGm__esw

An archetypal tale, as old as Western literature. I still have yet to read The Odyssey, but I loved Atwood's tale of the woman left at home awaiting her husband's return.

“There is a tide in the affairs of men, Which taken at the flood, leads on to fortune. Omitted, all the voyage of their life is bound in shallows and in miseries. On such a full sea are we now afloat. And we must take the current when it serves, or lose our ventures.”

Curt Warner is well known because of his career as the Seattle Seahawks running back in the 80s. He has recently become an advocate in the autism community after speaking out about the struggles he and his wife Ana faces raising twin boys with ASD. This is a heartbreaking book and I appreciate the different perspective. As a mother to a higher functioning ASD child, it was important for me to step outside of my own experiences. #carrymehome ⤵️

#TimbitTunes #CarryMeHome Everything about this book, from it‘s title to the cover and the blurb just tickles my heart ❤️ Haven‘t read it yet, but was wondering if it would work for #genrebusting since it‘s a memoir fiction mashup?!??

Day 16 - #carrymehome #thekillers #timbittunes

Carry me home,
I'm not afraid,
The stars in my eyes were shimmering lights,
Carry me home,
Don't let me fade away.
Stop the press,
The kid's light is growing dim,
I took a month long slide,
Then the world came caving in,
When you self-destruct,
You wind up looking for a glimmer of hope,
But the writing's on the wall,
I'm not the one.
The morning dove sings with two broken wings,
Carry me home

In an earlier post, I stated my obsession with the historic rich, visiting their stately homes and reading about their shenanigans. Well, that obsession extends beyond the US border to the stately homes of Europe. I‘ve never left the US - except for a few hours on Campobello Island in Canada - so I‘ve never visited these estates. But, this is one book that will #CarryMeHome to one of these estates. Yet another tbr. #TimbitTunes
