    Good Vibes Only? Why This Popular Phrase is a Problem

    August 16, 2020 /

    “Good Vibes Only!” has inserted itself on shirts, hats, bumper stickers. It’s become so popular, it’s difficult to not encounter it in some form daily. It was once one of my favorite personal mantras. Now? Not so much. I have no quibbles with the phrase, “Good vibes only!” itself. Being hopeful and knowing that there are things to be…

    Do They See You?

    January 12, 2020 /

    It’s no secret that I am a bibliophile, for which my husband has always been supportive, but he isn’t the type to buy books as gifts. That changed this past Christmas. He picked out the book pictured above: it details various Tarot card meanings, and ties those meanings into tips to increase creativity. Mike isn’t a reader. He isn’t…

    Good Vibrations: Raise Yourself (Pt. 1)

    September 18, 2019 /

    Even if you haven’t seen the vast number of posts circulating the Web that mention “low” versus “high” vibrations, you are undoubtedly familiar with them, even subconsciously: they’re feelings you get from people, places, or situations. That one person who, despite not actually doing anything to you, stresses you out when you’re around them? That’s low vibration.That job which…

    This is something I have been putting off. I should really know better. Haven’t I always known I wouldn’t be able to truly move on by pretending I wasn’t still hurting? That my upturned nose and indignant sniffs of, “I don’t care at all!” were just more bandages on the cracks in the foundation? I’ve been seeing so many…

    No one could accuse me of lacking a work ethic, but I also greatly enjoy my down time. Recently, events in my life have, as they say, “lit a fire” under my butt, and I have moved into action in a way similar to a bull barreling down a hill. This happens to me occasionally, when I have decided…

    Thoughts on a Tuesday: Ego

    March 26, 2019 /

    “Not everything is about you.” I tell myself, cursing the person in front of me, who is keeping their car a firm ten miles below the speed limit, at least. They seem to be overly cautious, I want to get home quickly, and our conflict of interest has left me feeling like they’re doing it on purpose.  Ego is,…

Spring is around the corner, and I’m feeling the Spring is around the corner, and I’m feeling the urge to do some spring cleaning. Not books, mind you, but friendships and acquaintances that no longer mesh with my energy. ✂️ I try to embrace change; sometimes it’s easy. Sometimes it’s not. 

I wish strength for y’all to cut ties where needed, too.

I was going to show my new spoon bookmark (in the I was going to show my new spoon bookmark (in the right corner), but it turned into focusing more on the cover of this book. 😅 Van Gogh is beloved by so many, and I’m one of them. His struggles with mental health, the sincere and deep joy he felt in the every day beauty of things, touches my heart in a way not many people manage to do. So, no horror today. Just appreciation for a true artist. 

Incidentally, the quote on the spoon is one of my very favorites.

Got this vintage paperback from @lanecrioteca and Got this vintage paperback from @lanecrioteca and it came with a super cool bonus: an old receipt (?) from none other than Strand Bookstore in NY! 

I love finding things like that in old books; one of my other favorites is a collection of mysteries with a lovingly handwritten note from the giver to the recipient on the front page.

Found a couple of treasures at #halfpricebooks tod Found a couple of treasures at #halfpricebooks today. I had a credit with HPB for some books I’d traded in, then promptly turned around and got more books. Super pleased to add both of these to my collection. I like how the Dracula book has a protective cover (I believe it’s the first edition from 1977). And look at that art on the Masters book. 😱😱 Swipe through to see the spine and back of the book. It’s a little worn, but still gorgeous. 

I’m a huge fan of anthologies because I can try a little of everything. I would love to hear any suggestions y’all have for good collections to check out!

My grandma died last year; today would have been h My grandma died last year; today would have been her birthday. I alternate between days where I am able to be happy she isn’t suffering, and then there are days like today, where I miss her terribly. 
She’s gone. My grandpa is gone. The farm where my mom grew up, and I spent part of my childhood, is gone. How strange it is, to think such a huge part of my life is over. 

Eventually, the years without them, will be greater than the number of years I had with them. But right now, I can still see every detail in my mind. Right now, they’re so close I can feel them in my heartbeats.
I know not everyone uses wall #calendars anymore, I know not everyone uses wall #calendars anymore, but I LOVE THEM. I love having pretty things to look at, whether it’s pinups, fantasy art, cute food illustrations (for the kitchen, of course), or in this case, photos of places I would rather be.

I am a fan of all the classic Christmas movies——both Home Alones, The Grinch, White Christmas, A Muppet Christmas Carol.....but Krampus has become a yearly tradition, too. It’s so much fun, yet has eerie moments (the snowmen....yikes). Somehow, even though the mail is seriously delayed right now, I was able to get a replacement copy in the mail within a week.
