Spent the day in the pool yesterday and butterflies were everywhere. Felt inspired (not my pic).

Fancy fluttering
flitting freely — fabulous,
flirty, fantastic. 🦋

Bk2 Ch5
"I know that about five days ago he…took out three thousand roubles…packed them into a large envelope with five seals,& tied it across with red silk tape…And on the envelope was written: “For my angel Grushenka, if she decides to come”, scribbled by himself, in quiet, on the sly, and there‘s no one who knows he has the money there except his manservant Smerdyakov, in whose honesty he believes like his very own self."

Aimeesue @TheBookHippie It came from a holiday ornament that the new pup stole off the tree and chewed the bottom off of. #serendipity 😂 2y

TheBookHippie @Aimeesue 😬🤣 ah yes… puppytimes 2y
Aimeesue @TheBookHippie unbeknownst to us when we adopted her, she‘s an Australian Kelpie They‘re herding dogs, so maybe she was trying to herd her flock? Of penguins? 😂 She‘s a handful! (edited) 2y
TheBookHippie @Aimeesue oh my. I have an aging Diva English Bulldog. That‘s enough 😂 2y
Aimeesue @TheBookHippie Winnie, yes? Charlie the Kelpie is running our Winnie (pibble) ragged! 2y
TheBookHippie @Aimeesue yes Winnie the Winifred 😂🐶🐾♥️ 2y
BarkingMadRead Herding a flock of penguins 🤣 best picture ever btw 2y
Ruthiella I think the original saying was “that‘s making matryoshka doll hats out of chewed up Christmas ornaments” but eventually “making lemonade out of lemons” for some reason became more popular. 🥸 2y
Aimeesue @BarkingMadRead She herds her TOYS occasionally, so I bet she‘d be delighted with trying to round up a bunch of penguins 😂 2y
Aimeesue @Ruthiella Hahahahahaha! Yeah, I can‘t imagine why. It just flows off the tongue! 2y

The Tie That Binds | Kent Haruf

I‘ve had Haruf on my radar for a while & intended to grab myself a 2nd hand copy of any I come across. The first I found was Our Souls At Night, which I read & loved a couple of years ago.
Then this one turned up in my own little street library. I rarely take books from my own library, because I mainly have it to dispense them!
I see that this was Haruf‘s first novel, & the other I read was his last. 🙏

Finishing this book tonight, and it also completes my #Pantone2022 challenge for this year. Thank you for this fun one @Clwojick

Funny it‘s my last book for this one, happens to be the center square, and wasn‘t picked by me at all but the #SheSaid reading group pick. #Serendipity #Bookendipity

Clwojick Woohoo! Way to go! ❤️ 3y

Helen, this was lovely! @squirrelbrain Kept me occupied while waiting for my mammogram! 🤦‍♀️Thank you for putting it in my hands…. So perfect for me! A humorous romantic little essay, on the joys of picking books you never knew you needed or wanted…. i.e. the total joy of browsing a bookstore. 💕📚
