Good morning Susan! Finish any good books this week? I'm still struggling to get off my phone and start reading again, but I do think about doing it from time to time. So I guess that's a start? 😁

Good morning Kevin! Intention is everything, I think! I did finish a fun book this week called “The Calculating Stars” by Mary Robinette Kowal, recommended to me by Den @denterrick.bsky.social. Pretty quick read - I gobbled it down in two days and am on to the next in the series. Thanks for asking!

It may be good for you. It is written, however, entirely from a woman’s point of view - be sure you’re ready for the “Lady Astronauts” 😊 Have a great day too, my friend!

Hi Susan — I’d love a cup of the usual! Looks like a rainy/stormy next few days in coastal Georgia. Probably a good time to catch up on mundane things — and that’s perfectly fine 😊 Have a good Thursday!
