Crocheting 🧶 the crocodile 🐊 stitch, while the Big Game is on and stopping to watch commercials! This is a shawl, so I have to start at the tip/bottom and work my way bigger!

A dark and disturbing look at what lies in the deep. This book started out a bit slow and derivative. I kept being pulled out of the story...”oh, that reminds me of”...now, back to the story. But the book eventually came into its own and made it a pick. I will never be able to look at guinea pigs the same way ever again (See my post for #QuotsyDec18 | 7: #Magnetic ). And the bees, oh, the bees.

Dark and deeply unsettling in parts. This novella raised a lot of questions about society‘s expectations and normalcy. Keiko tried to fit in by mimicking others and being the perfect convenience store employee. Finds herself questioned bc she #startedfromthebottom and has no desire to move up. Dark broken up with some lightness in Keiko‘s observations about her coworkers and friends. not the light palate cleanser I expected. #timbittunes

🎵 Started from the bottom now we‘re here! started from the bottom, now MY WHOLE TEAM F#%#ing here!!! 🎵
Elizabeth Woodville put her whole fam of minor Lancastrian/Red rose nobles on the map when she married the victorious York/white rose king. She went from widow w/2 kids whose lands were taken from her, to queen of England. Started from the bottom for REAL!! 😎

Adam Kay #startedfromthebottom in the NHS. He kept a diary over the years, most of which was spent as a training OBGYN.

You‘ll be shocked. You‘ll find yourself laughing (Kay has an amazing sense of humor), you‘ll wonder how so many stupid people exist in this world. 😂 You‘ll also question why anyone in their right mind would become a doctor for NHS. (97 hour work week is just the tip of the ice berg.)

I was obsessed with this book as a kid - written in 1881 it‘s the story of a widow and her five children living in poverty. It emphasises the values of family and hard work and honesty etc as a good nineteenth century children‘s book tended to do! There‘s a kind of rescue from poverty along the way but it‘s the first in a series so I‘m not sure if that‘s the end of the story 😊

You would think you could not be more at the bottom than being imprisoned in a Prisoner Of War camp. But some people still manage to rise up.

A new month and a new photo challenge. Thanks @cinfhen @thekidupstairs it looks a lot of fun.

I adored this book when I read it late last year....

We first meet Kathy Kontent in ‘late middle age‘ attending an opening evening at MOMA, having clearly led a charmed life. However we go back in time to 30 years before where we see her sneaking into bars through the back door, hustling and a bit of stealing. There follows the story of how she got from there to here.....

In the 1860s, Horatio Alger wrote a series of books for boys about Ragged Dick, a New York City boot black who, through hard work, rises to middle class respectability. It's a classic, sentimental rags-to-riches fantasy of pulling yourself up by the bootstraps. #startedfromthebottom #timbittime @Cinfhen @TheKidUpstairs
