Monday Musings...

My to-do list feels exhausted. I need to check more items off of it. Then again it's the holiday season, so what do I expect, right? Tis the season and whatnot. 

Yeah, I'm not feeling that jolly this year. No decorating or turkey for me. Since my dad passed away at the end of May, holidays seem to have lost their charm. Maybe next year I'll feel different. Until then, bah humbug, but not really.

I am reading more and that has been great. I finished the Patti Smith book and loved it. I took my time, because I love to savor her writing - it's that kind of writing.  I also finished a ridiculous story about four teens on a boat with a drunk sea captain and stormy weather. Suffice it to say, I sped through it by skipping a lot of it. I'm not sure what I'll read next, but I'm excited that I'm already looking for a new read. I've missed my reading mojo, so it feels so good to have it back - albeit it on a much smaller scale. Oh well, I'll take what I can get. 

I'm rewatching Homeland. I was going to watch Claire Danes' new show, The Beast in Me, but decided to go for her older work instead. I love Saul, Quinn, and Max. Such a great show!

I ordered another planner. Yikes! What is wrong with me? I have too many to count sitting in a pile. I even mailed two to my cousin last week to downsize them. This is one bad habit I am nipping in the bud starting NOW. Wish me luck!

And now, I'm off to grab a cuppa and write out all the anxiety running around in my head at the moment. Hoping you all have a lovely week. Happy reading!
