#makesmeLOL
blurb
BarbaraTheBibliophage
A Confederacy of Dunces | John Kennedy Toole
post image

Just couldn‘t bring myself to dig into my pandemic books. Closed my massage business for the duration (how long, I don‘t really know). So sad, but it didn‘t feel safe to me. So ... I‘m going to see if this #makesmeLOL for the #booked2020 prompt. Hoping so! And a glass of Viking Grog (really, that‘s what it‘s called) can‘t hurt.

hilded I‘m sorry you had to close, but I think it was a good decision 😢 Here in Norway the government ordered closing of all massage and hair cutting services. (edited) 5y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @hilded That makes me feel like I did the right thing. Our local hospital offers massage to employees and the public. It was their decision to close that finally convinced me I wasn‘t being alarmist. 😘 5y

Clare-Dragonfly Closing your business was probably the best call. I hope it won‘t be too much of a financial strain! 5y

Cinfhen Hard decisions, Barb but your health is still most important 🧡hope you find the light in this one...I couldn‘t stand the “humor” but that‘s me #OddDuck 🦆or even better a #FlirtyFlamingo🦩 5y
batsy Tough times and sorry you're going through it too. Hope this book helps... Was thinking of rereading it yesterday. It's funny, but reminds how you effed-up the world is!! 5y
daniwithtea Glad to hear you‘re keeping yourself safe! I have a massage scheduled at the end of the month, and while I haven‘t heard from my masseuse yet, I will probably cancel for her safety and mine. 5y

Pickpick

Funny, yet hard hitting and intelligent look at periods in today‘s society(s). Specifically at the silence surrounding them and the shameful tinge attached to them.
Some of the stories #makesmelol - #booked2020
Also #feminism #jennyis30
And #readwithmrbook - #1wordtitle (will repost later in the month!)

alisiakae This sounds like a book I would really like. 5y
