pickEnjoyable! Recommended for anyone who wants to engage or reengage with running. Just a well written, well told story that combines running with life.
Books to start 2023. I will be doing a chapter a day in each of these books.
so-soFYI for readers to go into this book with the right mindset, I think it's important to describe this as a text-heavy graphic novel, a memoir of an individual recounting how they experience the personal highs and lows, strivings and insights of each decade. Yes, examining the author's relationship to exercise is a major theme, but so is examining the author's romantic relationships, examining sense of self, substance abuse(?), workaholism.
She finally arrived!
This is a Broadway Cares, Broadway Legends, collectable glass ornament of Angela Lansbury in Mame. My grandpa was like - Angela who? 🙄
She was my tax refund splurge - shipping was ridiculously expensive and didn‘t come with any tracking - so it was a bit of a nervous wait!
pickThis book is about a boy that loved to stay inside and do nothing but play video games. He never wanted to go outside or do anything else besides play his games. However, one day he is unable to play his video games because he loses power. He is forced to find something else to occupy him. He ends up going outside and realizing how much fun it is to do things other than playing video games all day.
The Couch Potato by Jory John is a great children's book about a Couch Potato that has everything he could ever need in arm's reach but will not get up off the couch. This story is great for young children about determination and the benefits of getting active and being outside.
pickPublished in 2020, this story became an immediate New York times best seller. This is a story about a young potato who only enjoys playing video games. When his power goes out he is forced to find something else to entertain him. He goes outside and gets to explore the world and find beauty in little things other than video games. He ends up enjoying it and says that he is going to continue to do this more often.
My forever favourite, Angela Lansbury has passed away.
She almost made it to 97, she outlived the Queen. She was the last of Old Hollywood - and just pretty cool in general.
