  • Depends Where I Am

    What is your favorite restaurant? I really like mom and pop local places, so it depends what city I’m in at the time. I like Jason’s Deli, Boomerang Pizza and McKinleys, and The Hanger here at home. When visiting family or friends and traveling, my favorite is wherever they choose to go. Light & Love,…

    Sh*t Cassandra Saw by Gwen E. Kirby Review

    The Greek goddess Cassandra has the gift of prophesy but no one believed her visions of the future, only because she refused to have sex with him. The stories in this collection focus on women supposedly from Cassandra’s perspective – those from history and those from today’s time and age full of feminism and the…

    Easter

    Easter. Jesus lives. He went to the darkest of places for three days. He returned to his disciples. He said to them, “Why are you startled? Why are doubts arising in your hearts? Look at my hands and my feet. It’s really me! Touch me and see, for a ghost doesn’t have flesh and bones…

    It’s Friday

    This is Good Friday. For me it’s a day to reflect on faith. To be honest, our Christian faith must seem insane to the average non believer. We believe that God almighty sent his son to one small place on the planet to convince the world he is the best chance we have of salvation…

  • Sh*t Cassandra Saw by Gwen E Kirby

    Incase you want to read my bookcase right along with me, I am starting way out of my comfort zone with Shit Cassandra Saw. I don’t even remember how I acquired this book. Maybe it was the cover. Here we go.

    Today is my Day!

    Today is my birthday! As tradition, I make a resolution to myself. Last year I decided to take a social media fast for a year. The year of no social media was not easy at first. It got easy fairly quickly. I spent significantly less time scrolling. I allowed myself to go directly to my…

    Let’s Unplug

    From sunset 1March to sunset 2 March is the day of unplugging.  The idea behind the day was to challenge people to keep their electronic devices unplugged and unused for 24 hours. People are encouraged to give themselves the chance to take a break and spend time relaxing with family, friends, or alone.  That means…

    Yes! I ❤️ my job.

    Do you enjoy your job? I don’t call being a super cool librarian, library director, and author a job. All of those things are a part of who I am. I love talking about books, reading books, writing books and being around people who also love books. I also like people. My “job” involves helping…

  • Okay…

    Okay…

    If you could permanently ban a word from general usage, which one would it be? Why? I would ban the word “okay” and while I’m at it I will ban the tone that is used with it. Instead of using that lazy word use the word that means the same thing, “Yes”. My teenagers use…
