I finished March with 27 ARCs left to be read. It’s definitely springtime—the weather is vacillating between warm and cool, sun and clouds, and rain. Mom got away to Florida to visit the grandkids, great-grandkids, and her siblings, and I got a nice quiet break at home. I […]
March hit us with some weird weather—we got snow, rain, days in the 40s and days in the 70s, most recently back to back. I am glad to see some of the plants and trees start to bloom, although I will miss the cold weather. I really love […]
I finished January with 21 ARCs left to be read. February is now over, and it was a wild ride. Here in New York, the cold weather and the snow have continued. The temps were so low and we got snow in record breaking amounts. This kind of […]

May was finally more of a laid back month, and I’ve been trying my best to get caught up on some things I neglected in April. I completed a side project that I had volunteered to do through a Jewish Genealogy website, transcribing records so they can be […]
