I wanted to brag about my oldest. He has been inducted (as a Junior) into Phi Kappa Phi Honors Fraternity at his university. He has worked so hard the last few years. He was a kid that struggled with his anxiety & ADHD all through elementary school (we had one teacher tell us he‘d never make it to college). Now I look at all of his accomplishments: this, Dean‘s list. He‘s studying Wildlife Biology & Conservation. He‘s told us he wants to pursue

ncsufoxes his PhD & to hopefully do research on birds (his taking summer classes & helping with a shore birds research project right now). It‘s amazing how far he‘s come & how incredibly proud we are. I never would have imagined years ago that he‘d be talking about wanting to pursue his PhD. Neurodiverse minds are amazing. 18h
Gissy What a lovely story!❤️Yes, you deserve to be proud, you are part of that story, with your unconditional love, support, perseverance. I‘m so happy for him! Congratulations!!! 🎉 18h

dabbe Congrats to your son! 🤩 I‘d like to slap that teacher, though! ☺️ 3h
ncsufoxes @dabbe I know, that was his 5th grade teacher. His 1st grade teacher told my husband & I that we just might have to come to terms with that fact that “he‘s just a slow child.” This was prior to him being diagnosed with anything. That‘s why I feel it‘s important to share stories like this because it‘s important for other people to know about the obstacles that can be put in the place of many kids. My son‘s fortunate to have parents that pushed 2h
ncsufoxes back & fought for him. Unfortunately many kids don‘t have that or many parents that feel discouraged. I think my son still suffers from a bit of imposter syndrome. I don‘t think he realizes that not everyone gets straight A‘s (of gets a final grade of 96 in Organic Chemistry). He‘s luckily found his passion & interest, which has made school easier & fun for him. 2h
dabbe @ncsufoxes Your son sounds like a fabulous young man with lovely parents. Thanks for sharing your story. 💚💜💚 1h

#MentalHealthMonday @Kerrbearlib

1. Feeling decent today. A little bit of pain in my knee is all. I had my first injection in my back Thursday, so I am trying to cut back on my meds. Fingers crossed that the injections work.
2. I have a doctor's appointment Thursday as a follow-up to the injection. I hope I am finally cleared to ride again. That will be the best for my mental health.

Pleased with my #JumpStartSummer weekend. Despite spending 4 1/2 hours on Eurovision 🤣, I met my goals of reading Erasure and Floating Hotel, listened to a couple of hours of Great Big Beautiful Life, cleaned a bunch of short reads off my ereader and am in chapter five of Paladin's Strength. Will certainly read for at least another hour tonight, but might as well post now.

Faranae I'd complain about my Eurovision watch group being far, far too straight and can I join yours, but I'm probably never watching again until they deal with some very obvious problems. 😬 1d

Having nightmares of
uncontrollable classrooms.
I'll no longer sub.

P. S. And it's my 4th year of retirement. 🤣

Roary47 My students are rough this year. I haven‘t had the same sub twice. 🥹 2d
TheBookHippie We have college students who now sub each teacher has a college student and the students get paid. 2d
dabbe @Roary47 The more I've been removed from it, the harder the kids seem. Here's to your well-earned summer! 😍 2d

dabbe @TheBookHippie It's really hard to get subs these days, isn't it? 2d
TheBookHippie @dabbe They try to bribe me all the time …. 2d
AnnCrystal Kids seem to have lost their childhood these days, just in the news where two stories...“2 days ago — Police arrested a 13-year-old and a 12-year-old for a series of burglaries and vandalis“ and “5 days ago — Brothers, 7 and 9, Engaged in Armed Standoff with Police.“ Unreal! The poor teachers who must have to deal with these rascals.

👏🏼🐝🙏🏼🏫🐝💝.
2d
TheBookHippie @AnnCrystal only about 5 percent of that here and I‘m in Title One Schools. It‘s more extreme poverty and hunger by me. The behavior problems are in the “white” schools and private schools including weapons, rape and theft. Unreal. 2d

AnnCrystal @TheBookHippie there's something terribly unbalanced in the world 🙏🏼😢🌍🌎🌏💝. 2d
TheBookHippie @AnnCrystal I feed as many as I can as often as I can. And give out as many books as I can! (edited) 2d
dabbe @TheBookHippie Oh, I bet they do! How much do subs make in your district? We make $100 a day, $120 if it's long-term. 2d
dabbe @AnnCrystal 😱😳😱 2d
dabbe @TheBookHippie The middle school I taught at awas Title 1. The high school I retired at was white privilege. Both in the same district. 😳 2d
dabbe @kspenmoll My last sub day was a day of ALL freshmen. It about did me in. 🤣😍🤣 (edited) 2d
dabbe @JenlovesJT47 🤣🐝💛 2d
TheBookHippie @dabbe same here we have 5 Title One and three very privileged and then about 10 that are everything in between .. our district alone is 9000. We have a huge district because it‘s everything not in the city proper. 2d
TheSpineView Kudos to all the teachers! I would have nightmares too. 2d
dabbe @TheSpineView I hope my brain finally gets over the 30 years of fun-filled trauma. 🤣 Just let me dream of lakes, mountains, and trees, please. 😍 2d
dabbe @TheBookHippie Ours is one of the biggest in the state with 27,000 students. I think we have around 15 Title 1 schools. 2d
AnnCrystal @TheBookHippie 📚💝📚💝. 2d
TheBookHippie @dabbe WOWIE. Also- I tried to take sabbatical this year…. Making decisions about next year. 2d
dabbe @TheBookHippie Do what you need to do for YOU. I know if you take another sabbatical, you'll still go in and work. Because you care about those kids, and they need you. At my high school, I'm not needed at all. They have all the privilege and everything that goes with that. So, it's easier to stay away and not sub. It's the 1st year I declined to do AP test proctoring as well. #timeformetomoveon #ifonlymybrainwouldlisten 2d
Reggie I used to be a waiter and had nightmares all the time about the restaurant. Great haiku. 2d
Eggs I still have nightmares about middle school…😳 2d
TheBookHippie @dabbe 🙃😬🤷🏻‍♀️ still deciding. I was a nurse for 20 years I would dream I lost the key to the med cart or reach for my stethoscope around my neck while I was asleep 🤣🫣😂 2d
bellabella I was homeschooled all the way until I graduated high school. I'm afraid I don't know what you're talking about, but I can guess by the way I see middleschoolers now. It's very sad. 1d
SaunteringVaguelyDownwards I was fortunate enough to get my teaching job without subbing first - those who do it have my utmost respect! (Except for that one sub who ignored my detailed sub plans to keep us on pace with the novel we were reading and just "discussed current events" in my English classes.) 1d
dabbe @Reggie I was a waitress once, too! And had some nightmares there also! Usually in those, I drop all of the dishes, and the cook has to yell something like “Redo!“ 🤣 1d
dabbe @Eggs The most awkard time period ever. 🤣 1d
dabbe @TheBookHippie #oy! Losing the key to the med cart! 😱 1d
dabbe @bellabella It's exactly what my pic portrays. Kids doing all kinds of things except what they're supposed to be doing and me standing in the middle of the room, not knowing whose behavior to try to stop first. 😱 1d
dabbe @SaunteringVaguelyDownwards So was I. I was a teacher fro 30 years until I retired in 2021; my last year was the COVID year. I subbed after that, and the last day I did it was when I had to deal with freshmen all day. That was enough. 😳 1d

There is a trend going around BookTok about what about a book will immediately cause you to not read a book (keeping in mind there is always exceptions like favorite authors)

It could be anything from page length, topics, style of writing, format.

What are your big turnoffs? Mine in the comments.

Bookwormjillk Mine is when entire plots are built around people refusing to communicate. 2d
ChaoticMissAdventures 1) Reproductive issues - Infertility/miscarriages/pregnancy
2) Rape. (This is not a plot device)
3) “The Dog Dies“ books
4) WWII (Please there are so many other wars!)
5) Age gap romance (nothing makes me feel more icky)
6) Audio narrators who cannot pronounce common famous people's names correctly

Funnily I don't have issues with POV, first person vs others, I don't even blink that no quotes around speaking bits.
2d
ChaoticMissAdventures @Bookwormjillk what a common romance trope. And so badly used!!! Miscommunication can be handled well, but it rarely is. 2d
See All 17 Comments
ChaoticMissAdventures oh goodness, because I am old, I should add romance books where one of them is a virgin.... which sounds so slutty of me, but I will not pick up a book if I know one of the main characters is a virgin. It makes me feel dirty 😂😂 😂 2d
Kitta I don‘t read romance as a genre! I don‘t know why, it just doesn‘t appeal to me. I don‘t mind a bit of romance in a story but that can‘t be the main focus. Also most YA is not for me, and I‘ve been avoiding queer coming of age novels because I think it‘s just overdone and I‘ve read too many. I want stories about queer adults living their queer lives! Stories where the main focus isn‘t coming out but what happens afterwards. 2d
Kitta I actually really like WWII books 😂 I totally understand there‘s more out there though. 2d
ChaoticMissAdventures @Kitta I totally get the coming of age, I just listened to a whole rant by one of my favorite booktokers about his annoyance with "bi-awakenings" and I completely agree with him. They are an overused trope. I think like your coming out overdose about 10 yrs ago I realized that 90% of historical fiction is WWII, rarely told by Jewish or marginalized authors and I just got annoyed and will still not pick any of them up on my own. 2d
Kitta @ChaoticMissAdventures oh that‘s totally fair re:WWII. Same with queer novels. We need own voices telling the stories! Most of what I read is dystopian what would have happened if we went to nuclear war stuff with little basis in reality lol. I liked the nightingale by Kristen Hannah though, not many stories about war are about the women and their resistance/war effort. It was interesting. 2d
Cheryl_Russell Romance. Please no. My idea of hell is endless shelves of nothing but romance books. 🤢🤢 2d
ChaoticMissAdventures @Cheryl_Russell 😂😂😂😂 this hits my funny bone because the last couple of weeks I have been devouring dozens of romance audiobooks, it is not my normal genre and I am actually too embarrassed to really own up to them (not putting them in my Storygraph lists) but they have been weirdly satisfying 2d
ChaoticMissAdventures @Kitta I read the Nightingale for a bookclub a few years ago. I am willing to dive into my no goes for bookclubs and stuff like that but not too often. 2d
dabbe Say the words “Harlequin Romance“, and I'm outta here/there/everywhere. 🤣 2d
ChaoticMissAdventures @dabbe when I was around 8 through middle and highschool my parents lived out of city limits and I wasn't able to go to the library, so I read ANYTHING laying around, my mom had a linen closet filled with harlequin, I doubt she knows I read ever single one of those heaving bosom books 😂 2d
dabbe @ChaoticMissAdventures I loved them as a teenager, too! My older sister would give them to me, and I gobbled them up like candy. Now I prefer mysteries, historical fiction, and 19th century British literature. If there's a little romance in there, fine, but my days of heaving bosoms are long gone. 🤣 2d
Cheryl_Russell @ChaoticMissAdventures 🤣🤣 I kinda do that with horror. It‘s way outside my usual, I don‘t read much of it, but yet it‘s oddly satisfying. Gives me an emotional release of sorts. 🤷🏼‍♀️ 1d
AnneCecilie @dabbe I used to devour Harlequin Romance books in my 20s when I was a student. I think they helped me remember the joy of reading, and making it easier to read something else afterwards 1d

My brain was too tired for my current book (The Floating Hotel) so I read a bunch of little free stories that were cluttering up my ereader, mostly extra epilogues to romances. I don't know why I bother, they're hardly ever worth reading, but at least I did a lot of deleting. I don't even like digital clutter!

#JumpStartSummer

Faranae My main 3 romance culprits all have worthwhile “extras“ and I feel like this has given me expectations of others' extras that will be cruelly disappointed... 2d

Mehso-so

Carnivore by Justin Boote. Human remains are being found around the town; some are what appears to be the work of a serial killer, others are…eaten? Are the wild animals attacking humans?

Books of Horror Indie Author Brawl! This was fun, but it had some grammar issues and the story was a bit choppy. The gore was great though.

They say that four leaf
clovers bring you luck but you
need luck to find one.

And now I'm finally caught up on my two days I skipped!!

bellabella @lil1inblue It's always so satsifying when you finally find one. Although sometimes you think you find one but it turns out to be two leaves overlapping. 😂 17h

The Phantom of the Opera
was lonely for love
Christine was his muse.

Like some of you already know, I also love Phantom of the Opera (2004 starring Gerard Butler).

JenlovesJT47 I will make an embarrassing confession — I‘ve never seen it! I‘m going to see if I can track this down and watch it this weekend. Thanks for the inspiration! Great job 💛🐝🖤 3d
bellabella @JenlovesJT47 Thank you! 💕 I need to tell you when I first watched the movie I got a crush on Gerard Butler because of how he played the Phantom. (I was ten) (edited) 3d
TheBookHippie One of my favorite on stage operas. I enjoyed the movie as well. (I was way older than ten …. 😬🙃😅🤷🏻‍♀️) 3d

dabbe This and LES MIS are my fave musicals of all time. I was lucky enough to see it on Broadway back in the late 80s with Michael Crawford as the Phantom. And I agree: Gerard is gorgeous in the movie! Well done! 💛🐝🖤 3d

You've got mail: “Those are

enemies to friends.

Thanks to @JenlovesJT47 for inspiring me to make some movie haikus!
I love this movie.
The quote comes from when Joe (Tom Hanks) goes to visit a sick Kathleen (Meg Ryan).

JenlovesJT47 Awesome! I love this movie and the original, The Shop Around The Corner. So good and romantical 🥰 lol 😁 3d
TheBookHippie ♥️ 3d

bellabella By the way, @JenlovesJT47, I'm about to watch Anne of Green Gables again because of your haiku! 3d
JenlovesJT47 It‘s a great movie! I try to watch it every year around Christmas. It‘s from 1940 with Jimmy Stewart and Margaret Sullavan. And you can‘t go wrong with AOGG! My DVD has scratches so I have to whip out my treasured VHS tapes from childhood whenever I want to watch it 😅 3d

Thanks for tagging me 🩵🩵 @TheSpineView

Another hot 🥵 day in the Austin area 🔥
Two errands and a walk outside are my morning activities. The last 6 months have been a whirlwind and I want nothing more than to selfishly lose myself in a book 📖 !!

Elizabeth2 I hope you get that time and headspace soon, to lose yourself in a book. Sending you love and prayers always. 💕🙏 3d

#Chatterday2025 @AllDebooks

It is storming this morning. Thunderstorms scare my dogs so I have been comforting them with cuddles. I have tried thunder shirts to no avail. They are finally dying down and I can get on with things. My plans are to get a bit of housework done this morning. Lunch with my bestie, which will certainly involve alcohol. Afterward, I hope to have some time to myself later in the afternoon.
Play? @dabbe @DebinHawaii

Eggs TY for the tag 🌺 3d
ElizaMarie Love your lunch plans!!! I'm still sitting in bed with a coffee and a Frenchie sleeping in my lap (our new puppy is great when he is sleeping). Storming out here too. I haven't decided what I'm doing today. Husband has to attend graduation (for work). 3d

Elizabeth2 Enjoy your lunch! Sounds like a perfect date! 😁🥂 One of my dogs is terrified of storms, and she suffers seizures when stressed so we try to do all we can to keep her calm. Sitting and cuddling with the TV on and turned up kinda loud to something more soothing - no explosions, or playing calming music but kind of loud to drown out the thunder and wind. I try to just relax. Dogs read our own moods, so if I am calm, it helps keep her calm. 💕 3d
Elizabeth2 During 4th of July fireworks, I play patriotic music loud to drown out the booms, and I sit and read a book. There are enough of those types of sounds in the patriotic music that she can‘t tell the difference. And she sees me reading, which is a normal activity around here. 😂 She goes right to sleep. 3d
TheSpineView @Eggs 😘🥰😊 3d
TheSpineView @ElizaMarie Cuddling in bed sounds divine. I've been up since 6:30. After the rain stopped it was a long walk for the pups. Have to get some energy out of the 6 month old. 3d
TheSpineView @Elizabeth2 Looking forward to lunch. It's her birthday Monday so we are celebrating today. 3d
Cupcake12 Enjoy lunch. Currently sat on the floor with my girls waiting to go into a concert 🎵 It‘s going to be a late night 3d
dabbe Thanks for the tag! 😍I just replied on @AllDeBooks post! Sounds like you have a lovely day ahead of you. HB to your BFF. I hope you drink enough so that you will HAVE to relax in the afternoon. Hugs to your fur babies, too. 🖤🐾🖤 3d
TheSpineView @dabbe YW! We had a great lunch 3d

Today‘s Norway‘s National Day. We celebrate our constitution from 1814.

We celebrate with the children‘s parade, so this is seen as the kids day where they can eat all the ice cream and hot dogs that they like

So to any Norwegian in here: Happy Birthday
And I hope everyone has a great day

Mollyanna Happy National Day! 🇳🇴 3d

Teresereading Happy National Day! My great grandfather was Norwegian and two of his ancestors were Eidsvollmen. I only found out about them when we visited my cousins in Norway. My ggg grandfather was the longest serving member of the Storting. 🇳🇴 + 🇦🇺 3d
ChaoticMissAdventures Happy National Day, and best of luck in Eurovision finals today!!! 3d
squirrelbrain Happy NationalDay! 🇳🇴 3d
dabbe Yay for Norway! The most beautiful country I have ever been lucky enough to see! ♥️🇳🇴💙 3d
AnneCecilie @Teresereading Thank you 😊 I hope you managed to visit the Eidsvoll building when you was here? That‘s quite the achievement, how long did he sit? 3d
AnneCecilie @ChaoticMissAdventures Thank you 😊 We definitely need it when it comes to the Eurovision finals. 3d
AnneCecilie @dabbe Thank you 😊 you had visited Bergen before right? It was actually sunny there today as well. There was some talk about a heat record in Bergen today with temperatures in the 20s. 3d
dabbe @AnneCecilie Those would be high temps for that area, though in Phoenix, AZ, we'd love them! Yes, I visited Bergen back in 1990. I also did the Norway in a Nutshell trip and was just floored by all of the gorgeous fjords! People there were the friendliest, too. We also got to see the northern lights. All in all, a completely magical place. ♥️ 3d
AnneCecilie @dabbe I‘ve actually never seen the fjords or the northern lights for that matter. But the northern lights are moving further south, and was over Oslo this winter only I was in bed by then and didn‘t see it. 3d
ChaoticMissAdventures @AnneCecilie oh I thought he did so well! And just 19, with such a sweet backstory to his song! I am in the US so cannot vote but it is so fun watching 3d
Read-n-Bloom Happy Birthday to Norway! 🇳🇴 3d
dabbe @AnneCecilie Are the fjords only on the western side? I didn't know that! 3d
Teresereading @AnneCecilie Doren Jaabaek sat from 1845-1891! No, I didn‘t know about Eidsvoll until after we left Norway. Need to come back! 3d
AnneCecilie @dabbe The famous ones are in the west, but there‘s also fjords in the north. We have the Oslo fjord, not as beautiful or dramatic as the others ones (edited) 3d
AnneCecilie @ChaoticMissAdventures Yeah, at least we didn‘t get zero points. I thought the whole world could vote now? 3d
AnneCecilie @Read-n-Bloom Thank you 😊 3d

I forgot to participate in #threelistthursday last week so I‘m posting this on a Friday night. This week‘s list is books that were published in the 1800s. I‘m posting what I read and my thoughts about the books. My score for this is 7 of 100 - 7%.

dabbe What wonderful descriptions! Thanks for playing and sharing. 💜💚💜 3d

Good news for Boots! She let the vet drawn her blood this time & her labs came back looking good. Her chronic kidney disease hadn‘t gotten significantly worse (some of her numbers have improved!) We still need to get her urine tested, but overall she is doing well. Can‘t believe she‘ll be 16 in July!
