🚨WRITER BEWARE🚨 I've just gotten an email from a new "self-publishing platform" called Written (written.app), which is making suspiciously extravagant promises about the benefits they offer to authors. After further research, this is just "upload your book with us and make it an NFT :)" 🧡

Needed a quick cup of β˜• this morning, so I threw out an old pod, put mine in&fired up the keirug. Imagine my embarrassment when the new, very sweet doctor came around the corner&informed me he'd just put a fresh pod in...which I'd thrown out.πŸ™ˆLeft him one of mine&got outta there asap! πŸ˜…

I did all my housework, so I get a lil' treat. 😊

It's-16c and the furnace at work has been broken for 3 days, so I'm working in fuzzy socks, Ugg boots, a Norwegian sweater, and a toque. Sitting in front of the heater and still have perma nip-ons.πŸ₯Ά

Books are getting weird. Last one I read described the 5'4" protagonist as the tiniest, babiest bean. Next one described this couple as mature, older, with silver at their temples. I was picturing late 40s-early 50s. They were 28?! Makes you wonder who's writing these. πŸ˜…

Current read. The last two books I read weren't great, so I'm not posting them. This one sounds promising though. 😊

My winter workout is pulling my kid to school on their sled and then shoveling the driveway. πŸ’ͺ🏻

Oh nooo! Work got canceled because of the snowstorm, so I have to stay home and read πŸ˜ͺ

Today is my birthday. If you felt like giving me a gift, you might make a donation to this local-to-me library, volunteer run. Or any other group out there working to counter book bans! cdjlibrary.org/donate-cdjl

This is going to the top of my tbr list! #indigenous 🫢🏼

I would love to see my friends on here because I only see the same 5 people spamming the πŸ’© out of this app on "following" and "discover." Friends, where are you? 😫

Never wanted to kick my alarm clock's ass harder than this morning when it woke me from a sexy dream about Klaus Mikaelson 😫

It's the snowiest snow day, so I'm wrapped in a blanket reading, drinking coffee, and eating a Nanaimo bar while my vanilla snowflake candle burns in the background. πŸ₯°

Looking outside in February like...
