Autumn has always been more than a season. It is a turning point filled with omens, rituals, and offerings. Folklore captures its beauty and its fear, reminding us that endings and beginnings often walk side by side. #FolkloreSunday Art: George Miller

Did more than just in-and-out pick up my library hold last night. Went upstairs and took a look around. There weren’t many people at the the tables so I felt comfortable taking my time in the very cozy rooms. So glad I did! Having company this time helped me slow down and enjoy browsing #booksky 💙📚

The odor of a sharpie is kind of overwhelming. That could be the reason; some people are very sensitive to odors, get migraines or nausea.

You had me right there with you. I am in tears. I’m so sorry you endured that horror and what came after. I am so glad you survived and are able to give voice to your experience. Thank you 💗

Sarah, Plain and Tall by Patricia MacLachlan have not read this children’s book series but I have heard of it and thought I’d share. The author won a Newbery Medal for it. It was also made into a movie.

Uh oh! I hope my sunrise pic was obvious that it was “fire in the sky”! I went with winter sunrise, but it sure did look fire-y that morning. The colors were amazing, even through my window.
