1. My only New Year's Resolution this year is:
To remember Life is not a competition, it is not a race, but a journey of discovery. And not to compare myself to others who are on their own separate journeys unique to them. Hopefully we'll cross paths from time to time and teach each other, hug each other, and support each other along the way.
I'm posting this as a reminder to myself.
2. Watching the last hour of the "Great American Holiday Baking Show" in the background. Saw the first half in Hilton Head. Had the whole thing recorded at home, so I can watch second half here.
For the Brits and the people out there who have no clue what a snickerdoodle cookie is? It's a cinnamin and sugar cookie. Basically a sugar cookie with cinnamon and cream of tartar. I don't miss them.
3.What I'm Reading? Because it is Wed, apparently...
* Saga by Brian K Vaughn, on Vol#3. Amazon Fire Tablets are great for reading graphic novels electronically. Actually it's better than reading them in paper format -- because you can read it frame by frame. And the books don't take up shelf space, nor does anyone know you are reading them.
By the way the art in the Saga series is not only consistent, it's VERY good. Among the best out there. I'm impressed.
* Finished X-men: Red - "The Hate You Give" byTom Fraction Tom Taylor (I think) [ETA - thanks to berric].. ( Read more... )
* Finished X-men Exterminated -- or four out of the five issues released to date.( Read more... )
* Finished Ms. Marvel Vol #1 and Vol #2 -- see previous posts on this. ( Read more... )
* Reading Dream Hunter by Laura Kinsale -- which is a romance novel that takes place in the 1800s. ( Read more... )
Sort of Lawrence of Arabia meets...Queen of the Desert by way of the 1800s...?
What I'm reading next?
I don't know. I'm flirting with book one of the Broken Earth Saga by N.K.Jemisin -- which I bought a while back. That's in my queue, along with Where Did You Go, Bernadette? and various other books. I have too many books on my Kindle. I've lost track of what I've read and what I haven't read. Not to mention all the books in my apartment that I need to read.
You see? I have this bad or somewhat odd habit of collecting and hoarding books...but not necessarily getting around to reading them or finishing them. I know, I should borrow them from the library -- because apparently you can do that electronically and even with audio books -- but have I? No. Why?
Because that would be the logical and reasonable not to mention affordable thing to do. ( Read more... )
