Help wanted
Exciting news! Mystic Memoirs Vol 2 will be coming out mid-July! This will be the THIRD anthology I have been fortunate enough to participate in. This time it's a NON-FICTION tale of my brush(es) with the supernatural. Gonna need your help when it launches. Will you help?
... Yes I can choose better food to start off my day. My blood sugar levels certainly deserve better.
But let's work on extricating myself from the "I don't matter" narrative, dear Self.
I DO matter.
... and the whole reason I even have Ferrero Rocher balls to stuff my face with this morning is because someone from Springfield drove out of their way to BloNo to personally deliver a care package, because I matter to them.
Today out of nowhere I DON'T MATTER clobbered me on the head.
Ouch.
Oh man.
That's so not true my head protested, and yet, there I was, putting myself last, and twisting it into a fault, vs just an observation that I got the kids stuff out of the way so now I could fix MYself some food...
Foot, meet gumball, and fall hard, hear a click, and break the base of the 5th metatarsal (and possibly a tiny fracture at the cuboid as well). The ankle itself was ok, just swollen. That was a fun Friday. I see Ortho Monday morning.
Yesterday I finished listening to Alex Bledsoe's Give the People What They Want, a collection of his characters/series short stories plus some standalones.
The cherry on top was the final story, though. A chef's kiss zombie tale.

the bones beneath my skin, though, is gritty, and geared to an older audience.
I chose the story bc it was available immediately on Libby, I don't know if I even read the blurb for it lol.
I have no regrets reading this, but I am GRATEFUL I chose this for a long road trip without kids present.
Prior to reading this, I'd only read House in the Cerulean Sea and its sequel Somewhere Beyond the Sea. I'd describe them as whimsical even as it tackles some big subjects. Definitely a Young Adult reader audience.
My warning / heads up: there is a HOT sex scene in there. I listen to my books, so I'm driving and listening and wooowheee was it hot in the vehicle ๐ณ๐
๐๐ Finally finished TJ Klune's the bones beneath my skin last night. It was ... interesting... a different take on the E.T. / Return to Witch Mountain type tale. I'd give it 4/5 stars. I do have to warn you about something though, see comment ๐ณ
๐ s'up y'all? I'm suddenly getting a whole bunch of new followers, not sure what's up with that. I'm kinda quiet here, but I'm following back most of ya โค๏ธ Had a day of being on the receiving end of three Spinal Flow sessions today, that was nice.
๐๐ Literally just finished this book a minute ago. O. M. G. Just amazing. So well-written. Great characters, and arc. Blinked back tears a few times, but in the end I'm just so damn proud Felix. Wow wow wow. #wow

I feel like I've always been a keen reader, and any memory of the first fave from childhood has been lost in the mists of time. Marion Zimmer's The Mists of Avalon, though, retelling the Arthurian legend from the female perspective, and priestesses??! Blew. My. Mind.
This is amazing, is this available to print/order? I would gladly hand this out to Planned Parenthood protestors. Where else might benefit from its distribution??
Adding to my TBR list... I almost exclusively "read" audiobooks nowadays, and I don't see an audio version on Hoopla or Libby :((
Ditto
Do you see the circles?
I've not finished this yet but I so highly recommend!! #transgender #demiboy ๐๐
... that someone is Karma ... May she bring down upon them everything they deserve.
*adds yet another thing to my to-do list*
