Traditions:
1. Watching “Easter Parade“ and “Singin' in the Rain“ every Easter with my Family. Same with “It's a Wonderful Life“ and “A Christmas Carol“ on Xmas Eve.
2. Sitting on the porch during a rainstorm.
3. Getting away with the pups every autumn to see the leaves change.
4. Going with Matt to at least one football game (high school or college) instead of watching from home.
The list goes on ...
Not afraid of judgement. 🧡💜💛

Today is not only the anniversary of a horrible day in US history, it‘s also my mother‘s birthday. We lost her several years ago, and Litsy was wonderfully supportive at the time. @Chrissyreadit suggested that I share something special about her, so here goes.
I still think of her often and the influence she had on my life. When I was in high school, she thought it was important that I have some “culture” in my life, so she bought us ⬇️
It‘s here!! National Book Awards longlist week!!! 🥳🥳🥳🥳 Today‘s lists are translated lit and young people‘s lit (you‘ll have to go their website for the latter, which I don‘t follow). I‘ve actually read 2 of these, the Kang and Hunchback, and the Balle and Barrera don‘t release until November, which is always frustrating. I am loving the cover of Sleep Phase and We Computers only has 3 ratings on Goodreads, so I love seeing it elevated here.
@dabbe and @TheBookHippie - just came across this on social media and thought of you both and your passionate posting. I know we try to keep the content book related but I also want you to know - you are not alone. #silenceiscompliance
Cary Grant is my fave Old Hollywood actor (I own all 72 of his movies 😳). My fave movie of his by far is the hilarious dark comedy Arsenic & Old Lace. It was filmed in 1941 but released in 1944. During this time, Cary became a United States citizen & donated his entire salary from this movie to the war effort. Can‘t recommend it enough!
insanity runs
in his family — no it
practically gallops!

pickNo I haven‘t fallen off the face of the earth I‘ve just been moving… still 🥴 But I finally got to listen to this cast audio version of Angels in America which was fantastic. I see a subscription to National Theater at Home in my future. Maybe a reward for when this moving nonsense is behind me. 🙃

High tension moment,
the pain palpable — in the
end, laughter triumphs.

When I feel adrift, I remember Emily‘s words and they seem to shift everything into a perspective I can live with💔
Do you have something that pulls you back into the will to move forward?
