Happy 4th of July everyone!! 💥  Let’s see what new books we can find that went live early! But first…

THREE THINGS:

1.) We are still in unpacking mode (and mostly it’s building furniture).

2.) When I sold my last house, I had donated most of my furniture to Habitat for Humanity, and left a few things for the new owners (my beloved desk and bookshelf, for example). So I forgot that when we order stuff, the majority of it comes unbuilt. What fun! 🙄

3.) My new street/neighborhood is a lot of fun. They had a block party on Saturday night (not too late), and we got to meet a bunch of ’em. read more

Michele G: The new Emma Scott book Between Hello and Goodby is flat out AMAZING!!! It’s probably my favorite by her in a while and I truly enjoy everything she writes. For me this one really struck a chord. I highly recommend it.

THREE THINGS:

1.) Still not completely unpacked (and we have desks to build) but it’s starting to look like the pretty home we bought. read more
