C'mere, let me pay you some attention.
It's September... I'm driving my taxi (#MinivanMafia) e'ry morning and dropping off Rachel at her 3 morning preschool which is a learning lab at the high school. She protests daily, but greets me with "Don't look in my bag! It's a surprise!" when I pick her up. Sarah and J are doing well and J is even shadowing in Sarah's classroom for 30 minutes at the end of the day. We're all bopping along, doing dance and choir; we just finished our first long read-aloud of The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe (not without a lot of redirection and silliness) this weekend and watched the movie. I've got the girls hooked and we've started Prince Caspian. I'd highly recommend a re-read and/or re-watch of this series. I caught a few new allusions that delighted me.
It occurs to me that after 9 years of being out the of professional world I have filled my inner life with great books, blogs, podcasts and music as I can't seem to stop myself from recommending a new informational avenue to any live human with whom I get the pleasure of having a conversation.
I'm also jogging (more than once!) and eating like a sensible person. (Baby steps.)
I'll drop in a few recent favorites to add some substance to this brief missive.
Outlander by Diana Galbaldon (also a Starz series--adult content warning)
Author Liane Moriarty who recently released Truly, Madly, Guilty
Crazy Ex-Girlfriend series on CW (season 1 on Netflix-- hilarious genre-bending musical comedy, also adults only)
The Popcast Newsletter (with long read links)
And I'd be remiss not to include this nugget:
Have a good one!
