Hello Bookworms, We’re heading into Thanksgiving week and it’s looking like pretty much every other week since March for us. We decided to scuttle our plans to have Thanksgiving dinner with my parents because COVID is raging right now in our state. Like, I know that vaccines are coming and there’s a light at the… Read more »
Greetings Bookworms! Raise your hand if you’re a vibrating ball of anxiety. WHEW. COVID has ramped up to eleven (which I hesitate to say because, let’s face it, it’s probably only going to get worse) and I am just like “I’ve been stuck in my house with a toddler for 8 months already what’s 4… Read more »
Howdy Bookworms,I’ve been reading a lot of Beverly Jenkins lately. My favorite thing about reading is learning… stuff. I’m not talking about when you read a non-fiction book dedicated to a particular subject. My absolute favorite book learning is picking up seemingly random tidbits in unexpected places. For example: I’ve read a surprising number of… Read more »
Hello Bookworms, I’m playing a bit of catch-up telling you about books because I have been on fire with the reading lately. Whew. Too much stress means so much book bingeing. Let’s just get right to it. American Royals by Katharine McGee- I know, I know, it seems a bit MUCH to be reading about… Read more »
Hidey Ho, Bookworms! I’m writing this intro as my kid naps. He actually refused his nap at the appointed time, only to crash on the couch next to me a couple hours later. Whatever, I’m letting him sleep. Pandemic rules: there are no rules. (Am I laughing or crying? I can’t tell.) It takes me… Read more »

If the Boot Fits is the second installment of the Cowboys of California series. You’ll recall when I read A Cowboy to Remember, surely? If not, check it out HERE. A… Read more »
Greetings Bookworms! This week I’ve been working on Sammy’s Halloween costume. Not that we’re going Trick-or-Treating in the traditional sense, but that’s no excuse not to have a fun costume. I had originally planned to have Sammers dress up as Mike Wazowski- I even got myself a Sulley costume so we could be all matchy-matchy…. Read more »
Greetings, Bookworms! I don’t know about you, but I’m completely exhausted by current events. My energy is sapped. My blood pressure goes bonkers when I see science denial and arguing with people on the internet gives me hives. For my own mental health, I’ve liberally (get it? Because I’m liberal? Come for the books, stay… Read more »
Hiiiiii Bookworms, I finished reading some books this week! Yay me! This week we decided to take a quick weeknight trip to a local apple orchard/pumpkin patch. We didn’t go to the super popular one because crowds. And, actually, crowd avoidance was why we went on a Monday night. We may be the last people… Read more »
Hidey Ho, Bookworms! You’ll probably recall that the tiny human I grew turned 3 about a month ago. Having him out of daycare for the last 6 months while we attempt to work from home has been an ADVENTURE. And, while we had to celebrate the boy’s birthday in shifts so he could see a… Read more »
