August Bookshelf: The Whoa Month

September 9, 2019 by Tanya // 18 Comments

Whoa I read. Whoa I liked some books. “Whoa …”, said Joey Lawrence. And woe is me, if you don’t know why that’s hilarious. Cuz it is. Super, super hilarious. Or not. Seriously, who knows. My humor is weird but what I read last month wasn’t … that weird. I don’t think. Some self-help. A little murder. You know, the normal.

Coffee Talk: What’s New with Moi, Volume 9

My blogging has once again been somewhat erratic. It’s not intentional but sometimes blogging simply falls to the wayside. Also sometimes I feel like if I did blog I WOULD WRITE EVERYTHING IN CAPS AND BE SCREAMING CONSTANTLY at you, which I do not want to do. You’re welcome.

July Bookshelf: My Birthday Reads

August 12, 2019 by Tanya // 46 Comments

July is my birthday month and I’m sad to see it gone, although I ate everything and it shows. Maybe I took that indulgence thing a little too far, but it’s my birthday and apparently I’ll eat if I wanna … and boy, did I ever. Weirdly and somewhat unfortunately, I read a lot less than I ate and probably should have done the opposite, which is why hindsight is 20/20.

I am a carb lover. PERIOD. My love affair with carbs began … as soon as I started eating solid food? 😀 It’s delicious and addictive. And it was my chosen birthday meal this year in large part because pasta will become an occasional meal as part of my get healthy plan. It won’t be eliminated but more of a special occasion treat – like my b-day!

I Got 44 Reflections but a Cat Complaint Ain’t One

Shout out to Jay-Z because any dude who uses the hook from Annie’s Hard Knock Life and turns it into a rap anthem is cool in my book. But I digress, July is my birthday month. I am a Cancer who was born in the Year of the Rabbit. I am also turning 44 on Saturday. Gulp. 44 is an awfully big number, y’all. Super big. BIG!!!!!

Happy Birthday Prompts to Me

July 15, 2019 by Tanya // 14 Comments

I’m trying to keep things a bit lighter this month because it is my birthday month, which is why I haven’t talked about my plans or a-has around my get healthy journey. Those aren’t always the easiest posts for me write, although very necessary and ultimately cathartic. Plus, in all honestly, my get healthy plans were put on the back-burner this month because I plan to eat cake, folks. I will not apologize for this. 😀
