Play Nice - Rachel Harrison
👹
Family trauma meets Amityville meets sibling rivalry meets unreliable narrator. The result is not only enthralling from start to finish but also a perfect blend of humor, drama, and horror. I’ll definitely be seeking out more of her novels. 5 🌟

A wise woman

Self-Made Boys - Anna-Marie McLemore
🏳️‍⚧️
Finished this and loved it. The Great Gatsby has always been one of my favorite books, so when I saw this reimagining I was definitely excited. Factor in queer and trans BIPOC and it was a no-brainer. 5 🌟

A new school year has begun! This year I’ve moved down to 2nd Grade! Nervous and excited to be back in lower elementary. The first day was a fun and busy whirlwind but it’s already shaping up to be a great year!

Found this half finished project there other day and couldn’t remember why it was sidelined. So I finished it before starting something new. Just a little flower.

You are something. You’re you and that’s perfect.

Definitely on my list. For the nostalgia alone

Today marks 10 years since same-sex marriage was legalized in 🇺🇸. Thanks to Obergefell v. Hodges. We remember Jim & John, the fact that the fight can be won & the battle goes on. Because of you I got to marry my beloved.

Stupid plastic evil Kristi Noem at a press conference

Ironic that a woman whose face is full of foreign substances doesn’t seem to like foreign people that much

Last week was Spring Break and we planned a project to usher in the new season. This year we installed a drip irrigation system so we can schedule our watering, save all that time, and enjoy all our plants.

OMFG. I love this. Need to make it myself!!

Just two more days of work. Then the weekend. Then a week on a cruise with the hubby for a belated honeymoon.

#crossstitch #stitchsky help me find more cross stitch pattern makers!

I'm trying to get a good feed together for designers so it's easier to find new patterns. Comment and repost is the best way to get added.

I'm manually approving additions so we keep out the bot/AI sludge.
