Thank You @AllDebooks for #Chatterday, and Thank You @Eggs for the tag 😉👍🏼💝.
Movies with my mom, then I'm holding a gathering...I've invited all the characters from the worlds of my current reads.

Haven't had time for reading, therefore I plan to spend the later part of this evening on reading ✨📚💝.
Happy Saturday 💝💝💝.

When I was a junior in high school, my English teacher told us about her escape from Budapest during the 1956 revolution, and how she swam to freedom across the Danube River with a backpack that contained only a change of clothes and a copy of “Hamlet.” (You try explaining that you don‘t care for Shakespeare after that story…) She was brilliant and terrifying and she scared the crap out of me. And she pushed me to become a better writer … ⬇️
5JoysFriday Part Two

What day is it? j/kI know this happened a week ago. Time just flies by. #bookspin #doublespin
Mean Spirit was a #bookspin pick on another year too. The Crossing is also a #husbandpick that I should have read last year. 😂
For Pope Leo The Fourteenth
May 8th 2025
Update Note: The Full Armor Of God is a spiritual metaphor from the Bible. I know using metaphors in Haiku is breaking the rules...👀📜✍️...

This is Penny, my silly girl. She‘s laying in a dog bed. 😂
Second favorite part of AI's explanation of Fantasy. More of what I expected from an AI generated definition about Fantasy.
“In essence, fantasy is a genre that allows us to explore the possibilities beyond our everyday reality, offering a space for creativity, imagination, and escapism.“ -AI

Curious, today I asked AI to explain Fantasy to me?
This is my favorite part of AI's explanation...
“Fantasy is not a mere escape from reality but a way to understand it, to find truth in the human imagination, and to see the world through a different lens.“ -AI

Thank You @debinhawaii for #5JoysFriday and Thank You 💕🌺💝 & @TheSpineView 💕🐎💝 for the tags ☺️👌💖.
1- May has arrived 💝.
2- I was tending a rose bud, who became stuck in a wood gap. As I freed the bud, the Winds came in a breeze and the leaves of the rosebush I was tending softly brushed at my left cheek...like a kiss of thanks 😉🌹💖.
3- the Magic of Books 🪄📚💝.
4- Our Garden 🌱💖.
5- I'm back on Litsy 📚💝.
Hi Littens!
How's everybody?
Hadn't meant to disappear. I needed some time for my Catholic Faith 🙏🕊️💝.
Hope all is well with everyone. Excited to rejoin this amazing community.

#Bookspin My list is all books I own again. It‘s made up of a few I have started and set aside in the past, a few my husband picked, random others, and possibly my oldest unread Kindle book.

So that explains the mysterious, soothing, addictive smell we love! I want to know more about this.
A book nerd friend is moving and gave me first dibbs on her books she‘s okay with giving away. Many more shelves to go through. I chose these yesterday.
So this is what this year has come to, a pessimistic fortune cookie 🥠 🤦🏼♀️🥠
