    Spooky skeletons

    I trained as a medical assistant and worked in a doctor’s office for almost a year and a half. I have thought about becoming a nurse when I go back to school but I haven’t locked it down yet. I still have at least another year before my youngest would be in school long enough

  • The Lost Girls

    Well, I was going to go lighter with the next few posts after that craziness that I dumped all over you all but I picked up this book and read it in under 24 hours, it was that engrossing. I am fascinated by true crime and this is one of the most “popular” unsolved cases

  • I got my mother across town to the mental health crisis center for evaluation. The lobby was on the second floor of the building and there was no elevator. It took me a while to get her up the stairs and into a chair in the crowded lobby. I checked her in with the man

  • This one is going to hurt Pt2

    It was getting late and I didn’t have the umph to cook dinner. No one wanted pizza so my husband went out to grab everyone dinner. Our toddler is very brazen and adventurous so we have a lock on the top of our front door. It’s meant to keep someone from kicking the door in

    This one is going to hurt.

    I had a few other posts lined up but then I read Demi Moore’s book and decided those posts just had to wait a few more days. First of all, I bought this book the day it was released because I’ve always thought Demi Moore was interesting. I read the description and it felt very

    Heloise Pt2

    In the first Heloise entry I talked about my Mema’s original copy of Heloise’s Housekeeping Hints. You can read that one here–> https://literarygormandizer.com/2019/09/12/heloise-pt1/ I love that book so much that I was looking for others and found this volume from a seller on Etsy. It’s old, it’s stained, I love it. I asked my husband

    The Far Side

    If you were old enough to read in the ninties, or old enough to look at cartoons I guess, you’ve probably seen Gary Larson’s work even if you don’t remember it. Larson is a cartoonist for the weirdos among us. A lot of people didn’t get the humor because it was so screwy. I love

    Thank you for being a friend.

    I couldn’t make a post about Rue McClanahan’s book and not use the classic Golden Girls line. This book is hilarious. It was even more hilarious to hear Rue read it out loud at Book People in Austin, Tx. I went with my mother, she introduced me to the Golden Girls when I was little,

    Heloise Pt1

    If my house was on fire this is the item I’d grab. I mean sure, kids and dog first and my husband is a grown man who can fend for himself but this is the book I’d be most heartbroken to lose. It is a 1965 printing of Heloise’s Housekeeping Hints that was given to

    I’m Jenn. I love to read, I love to write, I love to connect, though there are times when I just want to hide. Best of all worlds? Blog! I own a lot of books. A lot. I have gotten rid of many of them throughout the years but I still have quite a collection.
