January Bookshelf: YAY! I Read a Book!

February 11, 2020 by Tanya // 30 Comments

Yes, I know. One book is probably not super brag-worthy but since I haven’t read a new-to-me book since September or October, it feels pretty amazing. Or sad. Maybe a bit of both? And sure, maybe I finished reading the book Sunday night but let’s not lose sight of the main point: I read something and I’m participating in the Show Us Your Books link-up again. Yay Tanya! You are such a good, committed reader. Or committable. Sometimes I get confused. 😉 Moving on, folks. Nothing to see here!

5 Things that Make Me Go Hmmmmm

February 4, 2020 by Tanya // 6 Comments

First up, y’all should have been jamming to a little C+C Music Factory when you saw the title. And if you’re not, well, see the first thing that makes me go hmmmm. But enough about my possibly bad taste in music! The world is on fire and democracy is ending, so let’s go out with a laugh. I mean that’s better than tears – right?

My Favorite Books from 2019

January 28, 2020 by Tanya // 10 Comments

Some of you may have noticed that I’ve been MIA from the Show Us Your Books link-up. Or not. That’s cool either way. Okay, that’s a lie. It’s not cool that you didn’t miss me because I missed participating! But after my move, I sought the comfort of rereading favorite books versus reading new books to share with y’all. No regrets because I needed that comfort but I did regret not participating in their year-end link-up because I particularly love seeing what everyone’s favorite books were. And yeah, sharing mine too.

Yup. Still Here and Blogging. Again.

Whoa. I know. It’s been more than three months since I’ve blogged. I didn’t intend to disappear but well, life. As you know I moved back to Minnesota and started working 9-5, which meant blogging became a secondary … non-existent … priority. Every week I had good intentions to write a Hey, I’m Still Alive post but then, you know, life happened.

September Bookshelf: A Book Miracle

October 8, 2019 by Tanya // 34 Comments

The whole month I had a quite a few books sitting on my nightstand. Did I read them all? No. Did I read some of them? Yes. And I’m calling that a victory! Even better, I really, really loved one of them. That I’m calling a freaking miracle! Or a tale as old as time.

So Yeah. I’m Moving Back to … Minnesota

I’ve known for some time but haven’t publicly talked about it on the blog for multiple reasons, mainly because I needed to accept that it was happening. It’s not a bad thing. Nor is it necessarily awesome. I mean it’s October. You know what’s coming. Winter. And unlike GoT, winter in Minnesota always kicks ass. And again, depending on your perspective, that’s a good thing or a really bad, bad thing.
