But I also say this: that light is an invitation to happiness, & that happiness, when it’s done right, is a kind of holiness, palpable & redemptive. -Mary Oliver

I am a bed maker (even in hotels).

That being said, when Brontë plops down right in the middle of my unmade bed, I leave her be for a bit* because she looks so comfy.

Cats are the algorithm on here & in my home.

* This is the weekend routine, during the week I gently move her b/c I don’t like coming home to an unmade bed.

I’m just such a Luddite & I want to write books about Luddites. — Ann Patchett

I finally visited Ann Patchett’s bookstore in Nashville (about 2 hrs away) & it didn’t disappoint. I’ve loved her books for some time, so this stop was a long time coming. I’m a Luddite at heart, which might be one of the many reasons I enjoy her books & characters.

Not your average patient.

Seeing her *walk in here with her 80 year old daughters in tow is nothing short of awesome.

*No wheelchair & fully cognizant.

Hope this made you smile

20 years.

A lot of life can happen in twenty years. This book is one that was available for free through Prime & usually I never give those books a second glance (b/c they are usually just not very good) let alone read. Since I am reading other books at the moment, I’m not sure why I decided to also read this one. (I had download awhile back). Anyway— it’s pretty darn good, I’m 70% through and I would definitely recommend. Maybe Prime picked it on accident
