What I am reading 10/31/25
Read more: What I am reading 10/31/25I love the delusion I had that this would finally be my week that wasn’t busy. Thank God for some easy reading for those between moments. I did the mad dash to get the Halloween costume done last week, and several of my daughter’s activities were cancelled. That just fed the delusion. But I was…

Read more: What I am reading 10/17/25It has felt like a long week, but I’m still reading. I’ve made it a priority to be more open lately.

What I am reading 10/10/25
Read more: What I am reading 10/10/25Who knew a cough could be this disruptive? After almost a week of this, I am just not reading in the way that I want to be.

What I am reading 10/3/25
Read more: What I am reading 10/3/25I have been busy, so reading hasn’t been as much of a priority this week. Postseason baseball is a special time for me.

Read more: What I am reading 9/19/25It’s been a weird and wonderful week. And although it’s been full of library joy, I haven’t been reading as much.

What I am reading 9/12/25
Read more: What I am reading 9/12/25The preschool funk has hit me and hit me hard. But I’m still reading. At the end of last week, I started feeling exhausted and congested.

What I am reading 9/5/25
Read more: What I am reading 9/5/25I had sixteen hours riding in a car, so you better believe I did some heavy reading last weekend. I don’t get to see my family very often, because they live so far away. It was a welcome break from constantly being worried about my daughter. She has people who are dying to entertain her,…

What I am reading 8/29/25
Read more: What I am reading 8/29/25I’m writing this with tears streaking down my face after a rough week. But somehow I’ve kept reading. I knew preschool would be hard. It was always going to be a big change for our family, and I think for the most part, we’ve handled that well. Have I turned into a mad woman in…
