Life of a Renaissance Gal
Watching… The Rookie. I think this is one of two new shows that I have watched this season. I’m a big Nathan Fillion fan so I had to give it a shot. I really enjoyed the first episode; I love the whole second life, pursuing your dream, concept. I’m not a fan of the trying…
Reading… Less. I did the audiobook of this one. I’m not sure I would have made it through if I’d done the actually book. There were parts I liked and parts I found boring. Ultimately, I ended up liking it enough that I gave it 4 out of 5 stars on my book list. Watching……
Reading… The Dinner List. While in college, Sabrina makes of list of five people, dead or alive, that she would invite to dinner. Surprisingly, they all show up to celebrate her 30th birthday. I really enjoyed this one. It was different and thought-provoking. Who would you choose? Watching… A Million Little Things. This is Us…
Watching… The Indian Doctor. I’ve been binging British TV. The Indian Doctor is not my favorite. The series has a “bad guy” for each season. Unless done well, I find the “bad guy” formula over-dramatic and annoying. I’m more intrigued by shades of gray than black and white. Reading… Educated. I’m about halfway into this…
I’m sorry for the lack of posts lately. I’ve been working on some pattern designs and they’ve been pretty time consuming. Watching… Bosch. I flew through Season Four last weekend. This season was really good. I don’t want to give anything away. Something big happens this season that I suspect will be the focus of…
Reading… The Grace of Dogs. After hearing the author on a podcast, I was excited to check out this book. It explores our relationships with dogs. Do they really love us or just love that we feed them? Do they understand us when we talk to them? If dog books are a trigger for you,…
Reading… The Alice Network. This is the story of two women, Eve who worked as a spy during WWI & WWII. After WWII, Charlie (short for Charlotte), goes to Eve to get her help finding her cousin Rose who seems to have disappeared during the war. The book alternates between looking back at Eve’s life…
Watching… Community. I’ve really come to rely on funny TV shows to add to my happiness during this rather depressing time in the world. I was so sad when I discovered The Good Place wasn’t coming back until January and decided I needed to find something to watch while everything goes on winter break. I opted…
Hi there! I’m sorry that I was a no-show last week. Lunar the foster dog kind of depleted my energy/will to do anything. My first foster experience was not good. But I learned a few lessons for next time (if there is a next time). Thankfully things have returned to normal around here and I…
Reading… Reading People. I was excited when Anne Bogel announced she had written a book and it hasn’t disappointed. It’s about all things personality. I’m a little more than halfway through and have already learned about a few assessments with which I was not familiar. Watching… Kevin Probably Saves the World. With everything going on…
