Reader 📚 Book club mod 💚 Little librarian Parent 📖 Teacher 🏊♂️ Swimmer 💬 Think big, think disruptive. Execute with full passion. StoryGraph: Book Club:
Got a 3,000 yard swim in and voted in the Wisconsin primary. Get out there and do the thing, people 🗳
Getting back into swimming as I prepare for a triathalon has really felt like reclaiming the sport for myself. This time, I swim for myself and no one else. 3000 yards today, felt good 💪
Hardy hibiscus spotted outside the health club this morning #bloomscroll 🌺
Something about fire and going insane inside apparently sends me to the pool. Back to back 2000 yard days 😁
CR: The Night We Met by Abby Jimenez The new Abby book has some bars in it, and I can't wait to see how this one ends 📚💙 "Sometimes necessity forces us to be the most efficient version of ourselves." #currentlyreading #booksky
Wild fires mean we're inside today. Just finished my first plastic bag swim workout in over a decade. The last 100 was at 1:18; muscle memory is mind-blowing sometimes 🏊♂️
Saw a massive field of black-eyed susans in bloom by my library yesterday 🌞 #bloomscroll
Acrobatics show at the library "Welcome to Barely Balanced. You get to watch middle-aged acrobats living out their plan B"
My local library has a store that sells donated books and materials leaving circulation. It's volunteer run, and all funds go back to the library's general fund. I've gotten so many treasures there recently and gotten to help my library in the process! 💙📚
Just picked up this new pocket-sized board game. Look at the little wooden books 🥺 #booksky
CR: Paladin's Faith by T. Kingfisher The anxious, bookish male love interest in this one is doing it for me 🤓 #booksky #currentlyreading
Currently reading: Beartown by Fredrik Backman 💙📚 Sometimes a book cuts deep into your soul and this isn't the first time Backman has done so "Being a parent makes you feel like a blanket that’s always too small. No matter how hard you try to cover everyone, there’s always someone who’s freezing."
This pocket-sized printing of Toward Eternity by Anton Hur is so cool! I want to see more of this. It has the same energy as the well loved mass market paperback 💙📚
Felt a bit bold tonight and made palak paneer at home. It turned out SO WELL 😁
CR: A Parade of Horribles by Matt Dinniman I'm holding on to my butt for the 8th installment to Dungeon Crawler Carl 🦶 💙📚👀 #booksky #currentlyreading
This 30 pound common snapping turtle was in the middle of a busy road, so obviously had to move this baby somewhere safe.
CR: I've been enjoying reading the occasional middle grade fantasy book this year. It's like watching Saturday morning cartoons. Illuminations by T. Kingfisher is such a fun little romp 🐦⬛ #currentlyreading #booksky
Updated library stock for May. I've tried to do a better job sorting out children's books, middle grade, YA, and adult. Ugh, I need a bigger library. So many books I want to share, so little space 💙📚 #littlefreelibrary #booksky
