It’s the last day of April. I promised myself at the beginning of the year that I wouldn’t start off each month saying, “I can’t believe it’s already…” so let the record show that I’m inserting that extraordinary level of disbelief here on the final day of the fourth month of 2012. On My Nightstand: … Continue reading
On My Nightstand: Currently reading: From The Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler. I’m a chapter away from the end of reading this book aloud to Brenna. I remember loving it when I read it in fourth grade and because she’s at that level now I thought this would be good for her. I … Continue reading
Despite my lack of posting more than once or twice a week this month – which kind of kicked my hind parts, if I’m being honest – I did still get around to living some. This is what I was into. On My Nightstand: Finished Reading: Bossypants by Tina Fey. (Review to come soon.) This … Continue reading
Have I mentioned how much I enjoy these monthly wrap-ups? Yes? Every time I publish one? Well, I do. New On My Nightstand: Finished Reading: Red Mist by Patricia Cornwell.

This has not been a productive autumn season in terms of getting … Continue reading
I have to say, for now I like these monthly posts better than weekly Tidbits posts. It’s a more concise way to share my own interests and activities without oversharing. Hopefully. On My Nightstand: Currently reading: The Omnivore’s Dilemma: Yes, I’m STILL reading this book. It’s… intense. Interesting and informative, but intense. The New Rules … Continue reading
I did this last month and liked the review it provided me you. ‘Cause you know I forget pretty much everything as soon as it happens. Memory of a goldfish, here. (One of the few pictures I took this month and didn’t already feature on the blog. I’m sure he’ll be thrilled.) On My Nightstand: … Continue reading
I saw this post on a blog that I’ve recently started reading, Sorta Crunchy, and thought this might be a good way to sum up each month, since it seems I’ve abandoned my Tuesday Tidbits posts for the time being. (Or blogging in general, for that matter.) Anyway, I’m here and below is what I … Continue reading
