Is this her first time??
I hope you'll join me for this Friday's economic blackout.
If you're able, fill up your car and pick up some groceries today or tomorrow.
Limit / eliminate your purchases on Friday. No coffees or drinks or meals out.
Our economic choices can be an effective tool in combatting bigotry and greed.
hey for anyone who might want to actually own their kindle books instead of renting them, or who might be thinking of switching to kobo etc and will want to convert them to epubs, you now only have one week before amazon kills your ability to download its ebooks www.theverge.com/news/612898/...
My kid learned it in kindergarten after a classroom read aloud. We checked the book out from the library and he sang it for months. I truly don't care if that's the only thing he learned in school last year.
Today I am celebrating the fact that I have removed a file last accessed in 2016 from a folder entitled "000 Working files from this week".
I just spent several weeks coveting Belgian bike infrastructure and this isn't helping.
I for one am a big fan of the active loading spot on your corner as almost all of my stops take less than 5 minutes.

Hello world
Is the basic cloud package sufficient for your uses?
What are folks using instead of Evernote? Alternately, is the exceedingly more expensive Professional tier actually worth ~$90 more than the Personal tier they're phasing out?
I had really hoped that one of the outcomes of the pandemic years would be a little more flexibility in this area.
Yes, this. My kids could easily walk or scoot to multiple playgrounds except that drivers - including the police - blaze through our speed bump and stop sign filled residential neighborhood.
Our complex has somewhere less than 25 units arranged around a pleasant courtyard where folks have been expressly told their kids are not allowed to play. It's truly obscene.
Bedtime: "Mama, what are some book awards?" "Mama, what is your favorite character in Mercy Watson?"
Asleep: "Papa, [my brother] is getting 1,000 apples!"
Today in things the Small Kid talks about at bedtime or in his sleep: the Western Sahara.
Update here! I shelled out for the new Granta edition and it is a far lovelier reading experience than the library copy. Really enjoying this so far.

So grateful for your work! We reference it all the time at my library.
Same, but also those are the finest sponges.
Pour one out for ~Google Wave~
Bollard watch 2024!
First New Years Day in ten years when I'm not pregnant or breastfeeding or both.
Same.
Oh my heart. Love you, friend.
Also, the thing I remember clearly from reading her letters and attempting to read other diarists is how freeing it was to read extraordinary people writing about everyday things.
I have read some of her letters but none of her diaries. My kingdom for e-formats as most of my reading is in the pre-dawn hours! Thank you!
