Welcome to Litsy!

My cat Dusty , is feeling under the weather. She was at the Vet yesterday, nothing was found. I‘m hoping this might cheer her up . She is perking up a little.

Not many buildings can rival the bright lights and vibrant colors of the Strip at night, but the big top of Treatro della Notte certainly holds its own.
The black-and-gold-striped building is blanketed by an explosion of twinkling white lights.

Last night‘s scores from the book swap after my extra exam ballet lesson. It was nice to walk home after in the warm evening air with the full moon rising. Summer is on its way to save me! I also scored the stool from next to the bins downstairs. Yay for a new pot stand!

4⭐️ Really enjoyed this book and I am kinda glad I read it after all the hype had died down to read it. Looking forward to the next book in the series. #2025 #fiction #historicalfiction #literary #friendship #comingofage

#HaikuADay #HaikuHive

Still one haiku behind (Friday‘s) but today‘s is inspired by doing a few hours of work today on the Labor Day holiday, but at least changing the scene by working out of my local coffee shop where I can be fed & caffeinated while I do it.

Laboring

It is Labor Day
And so I labor, low key,
Coffee close at hand

My pick for August is tagged. I also loved Book Woman. I read it for work bookclub and then found out I read the wrong book. 😂 The rest were picks as well.

Oh, hello.

Finished this one earlier in the week, my second for August‘s #AuthorAMonth #JudyBlume. The library audiobook became free & so I listened to it & really enjoyed the reread. I must have read this book a bazillion times growing up & it all came back. Perfectly captures growing up in the late 70s-early 80s for me & all those things—bras, periods, boys & friendships & all the questions & angst they bring.
