Welcome to Litsy!

This book is gorgeous and informative, but it‘s too dang heavy and the font is really small and cramped. For a book that has so much emphasis on design, they really didn‘t design that aspect well.

*Not the tagged book* Audible produces a Words + Music series, which allows listeners to consume a brief overview of various music artists. I enjoyed learning about legendary cellist Yo-Yo Ma in this Audible Original, Beginner‘s Mind. Yo-Yo Ma immediately had my attention when the audiobook opened with him describing a remote home he and his wife enjoy that is immersed in nature.

I took am intro embroidery class this morning and I enjoyed it very much!

#LitsyLoveBingo for November is helping me meet new friends. Watch for some mail @Deifio

I decided that I should own more of the women‘s studies books that I am reading so I can *gasp* write in them.

But I‘m going to return “who‘s afraid of gender” because I think I can find it used and I‘ll feel better writing in a preloved copy.

Could you ever write in a book?

#WickedWhispers #Lantern This DK book is loaded with self sufficient skills that people like my grandparents were familiar with. That is why they saved everything, you might be able to fix it or use it as parts to make something else. I swear Grandpa could fix almost anything with duct tape and baling wire !

Just harvested my first attempt at chard. It actually worked! #gardening

Happy Birthday, Andrew @TieDyeDude ! 🎈🎈🎈 I hope your day is grand! 🎂

In honor of your birthday, I made a donation to this Tie Dye project at a low-income elementary school (through the Donors Choose website - one of my favorite charities.) 🎉

1. My original Litsy handle was some kind of library pun, but I felt like a fraud after I left my library job, but I couldn't think of a good alternative, so I just went with TieDyeDude 😄
2. Well I don't LIKE doing chores (dishes, mowing, laundry, etc), but that's normally when I have time. Sometimes I'll find time in the morning or during my lunch break to sneak in a half hour.
3. Last audio book is Mrs. Calliban
