Have you noticed that every month this year has had me talking about how it’s been A MONTH. 2023 is trying to test me. But this month I started drawing boundaries and taking care of myself (if you know me, you know this isn’t my normal self) which has really helped. Or maybe I’m feelingContinue reading “May 2023 in Books”

April 2023 in Books
April is always this conundrum to me. It feels like an incredibly long month but I’m also trying to grapple with the fact that it’s already over and now it’s May! I did so much in April. Hung out with so many friends, went on so many adventures, drank a lot of wine, and enjoyedContinue reading “April 2023 in Books”
March 2023 in Books
I’m really just here to bitch. So if you want reviews, scroll on down. If you want to read my bitchfest, keep on going: This year has been a whirlwind. Scotland was amazing (I swear I’ll post soon) but I feel like any and all of my downtime has been re-watching Veronica Mars (for theContinue reading “March 2023 in Books”
February 2023 in Books
Something crazy happened this month. I listened to my first (new) audiobook. I’ve listened to Harry Potter in audiobook form, but it was more of a background music/comfort thing. When I got my current job (over 8 years ago), I knew I would be driving a lot so I tried out an audiobook. I immediatelyContinue reading “February 2023 in Books”
January 2023 in Books
Boy, I really hope that January 2023 doesn’t set a precedence for how the rest of 2023 will be. Sure, I was in Mexico for week one [fantastic, got a great tan] but a week after getting back, my husband got the flu! Thankfully, I didn’t get his full blown sickness – it felt moreContinue reading “January 2023 in Books”
December 2022 in Books
Why do I always think that December is going to be chill? Most of my December weekends were fully booked by mid-November. Not to mention that at work, this is the busiest time to of the year. But here I was, at the end of November, going “Man, I can’t wait to chill in December.”Continue reading “December 2022 in Books”

See ya later, 2022. When I look back on this year, I have a lot of really cool memories but in between the cool memories, I really don’t know what happened. We went on our RV Road Trip in May and then like, it was the beginning of August all of a sudden and IContinue reading “2022 in Books”
November 2022 in Books
November is probably my favorite month. I love the BER months, in general, but seeing as I was born in November, it’s my favorite by default. I’m also a big fan of Thanksgiving food. I eat non-deli turkey and stuffing once a year and I cherish it. This year, I made a Thanksgiving Pie withContinue reading “November 2022 in Books”
October 2022 in Books
Oh hello there, lovlies. Long time, no see. I feel like since August, I’ve been in a whirlwind of work and social responsibilities and I don’t see it ending any time soon. I have several started blog posts that are abandoned for one reason or another. I committed myself to a 31 Day Writing ChallengeContinue reading “October 2022 in Books”
September 2022 in Books
Instead of waking me up when September ends, can you please tell me where September went? I feel like I took one deep and healing breath and BOOM, it’s October. Perhaps it was my short East Coast vacation (more to come on that) or just my serious anticipation for the BER months (Fall, Halloween, sweaterContinue reading “September 2022 in Books”
