Meet The New Post; Same As The Old Post
All of this may sound familiar:
I'm still reading and enjoying Grant by Ron Chernow and excluding all other books from my life until I'm finished.
I'm still doing NaNoWriMo. Now the writing is starting to feel unwieldy and that scares me. Then I remember that it's OK to let it get out of hand this month. Next month I can edit.
Mom is still in the nursing home. The doctor wants her to stay through Christmas. Maybe it will help to break this crazy cycle of home/hospital/nursing home.
But what's new?
I'm dreaming of a Bonnethead Christmas! No, not the tin cup and the penny this time. Took a run through the local bookstore today and there are so many new and delectable books, fiction and nonfiction, about Laura and her world.
There's a million things I haven't done, but getting a 2018 calendar isn't one of them. Hamilton is going to grace my wall for a second year. As soon as I saw it, I didn't hesitate; I exhibited no restraint.
After a certain notorious monster died recently, I decided that I'm finally ready after many years to read Helter Skelter. Some other library patron had the same idea, so I'm on the waitlist.
Recently, I discovered the Broadway channel on satellite radio and I am in love. Problem: I'm listening to show tunes during my commutes to work and the nursing home and that's messing with my resolution to always keep an audiobook on the go. I don't know if I'll start another one before the end of the year but if I do, it will be The Nix by Nathan Hill.
Because I am listening to the Broadway channel so much, I am dreaming books into musicals almost every night. A Little Life. Lincoln in the Bardo. Grant. Even my own fledgling...there was a showstopper called Squawk the Squawk. That's all I can remember. Bye-bye, Tony Award!

I enjoyed this post. And how on earth do you find out how people find your blog? Ugh to how some of them use your title....now I know why you are considering changing it. I'd never have thought! but then we don't do we? sick people will use anything....I do love how you can answer some of those referrers to your blog! lol I'm sick with a cold, so I just had an amusing moment imagining all the ways we say sorry over here....I never would have thought of us saying 'soar-ee' but I think you are right....no mumbling it north of the border! Lol Some of the search terms in my referrers make me laugh, I wonder what on earth they were thinking. Some I just can't work out why they made it to my blog from what thye typed. Thank you for sharing your article about Blue-Hearted Bookworm If you interested to know more information please visit http://onedaytop.com/donald-trump-claims-time-magazine/
