I finished June with 37 ARCs left to be read. July has been somehow both hectic and relaxing, if that makes any sense. We had a heatwave, just like most people in the Northern Hemisphere apparently. There were a few days where we couldn’t go anywhere because smoke […]
I finished May with 40 ARCs left to be read. June was another busy month for me. There were a lot of medical appointments for me and my mother, and we had to follow up on a few things. We ended up getting a new car after the […]
I finished April with 23 ARCs left to be read. The weather has been up and down in New York—it’s going from temps in the 80s to temps in the 50s. There have been some big thunderstorms and a lot of rain, so at least I know the […]

I finished October with 20 ARCs left to be read. Is it just me, or did November feel like it lasted eleventy billion days? The month started out warm and cooled off a lot more, even having some frosty nights and one day of flurries but no actual […]
I finished August with 19 ARCs left to be read. Hi all! This post is always scheduled for the first of the month, but I got a little delayed because of Yom Kippur. Our High Holy Days were really nice, for the most part. My sister came to […]
I finished July with 19 ARCs left to be read. Happy Saturday! I am so ready for autumn and everything that comes along with it: the scent of woodsmoke in the air (from fireplaces, not wildfires), the leaves changing color, chilly weather, switching from capris and sandals to […]
