I want to go home

Been watching all these travel videos for cruises and train rides and Vegas. Now after some of them I’ve seen, I am staying home. Ewwww

I think 2025 is going to find me reading mainly fiction other than homework. I need stories and am really craving books after a seriously long reading that lasted from 2023 through most if 2024. My longest one ever.

And on a positive note, it is Friday!!

Trying to figure out reading plans for 2025. I want to do something totally different and get back into it. This 2 year slump has really been awful. I just need to figure out how to work it in while pursuing two new masters degrees.

Back in late September I lost one of my dearest friends from college to a ruptured bowel. Last night I was watching the CMA Country Christmas and Amy Grant sang “Tennessee Christmas”. The tears poured but I will forever cherish this song we both love. I miss you friend.

I really don’t feel like I have much to post on socials anymore. It all just wears me out mentally.
