1. Josie …because the Outfield said she‘s “on a vacation far away” - which sounds great! But also the name of the main character in The Sugar Queen. 😊

2. Fozzy, Rugby and Leo are my pups. Best cat ever - Ernest. But also Jasper, Coco, Dudley and so many more.

1. I quite like my name, Sara, but if I had to choose something else it would probably be Isabelle. It's the name I used in French class in highschool

2. I had a turtle named Pistachio growing up. Now I have my cats: Oakley, Camo, Arthur, and Ben

3. Algernon! From the Importance of Being Earnest

1. In all honesty, I didn‘t have any positive influences in the way of adults but I had my best friend. We met when we were 6 and she became a source of light in my life and was a good kid who made me want to do good too. 28 years later and we‘re still besties, but more like sisters.
2. My husband and two kids of course.

These #WondrousWednesday choices are tough ones! Here goes…

1️⃣Not be able to taste
2️⃣Know when I die 😬
3️⃣See the future but only if I could choose when b/c I think being able to see everyone‘s future would drive me mad!
4️⃣Find the love of my life (it‘s worked out so far!)
5️⃣I can‘t imagine a forever winter so would definitely pick summer. ☀️
6️⃣Be invisible!

Thanks again for the tag @Monica5 🥰

1. Taste, then sweets would have no spell over me lol
2. Neither, just can‘t.
3. That one is hard too. Change the past if I have to ;)
4. I feel grateful for my husband. I‘d love to find my post corrections passion, I‘m going to need to spike my blood pressure.
5. Summer. Is that even a question?! Winter forever oof.
6. Be invisible, that could be lovely for an introvert to turn on at will.

I'm a day late but these were fun questions!
#WondrousWednesday @Eggs

1. Spoiled! I actually seek out spoilers all the time 🙈
2. I think it would be very cool to interact with a favorite character
3. Hmmm, a mystery novel as long as it's a cozy mystery and not a thriller with a murderer on the loose 😱
4. Ooo sci-fi would be fun! 🚀
5. Skip the last! I need the set up from the first book but I'm all the time not finishing a series

#wondrouswednesday This one is thoughtful. I don‘t think people see me the way I see myself, I am introverted, but can extrovert. I feel like I may look stand offish but I‘m really just listening and gauging where/if I can join. Like watching a jump rope. Waiting for the opening ☺️
I‘d like to be seen as fair, patient and reliable.

1. My reading goal for 2024 is to read 40 books because I turned 40 this year. (I‘m currently at 36/40 🙌)

2. I‘m such a moody reader that I rarely stick to the plan lol. But I‘m totally okay with that.

3. It‘s opened my mind and heart, allowing me to better empathize with other people‘s experiences, perspectives, and challenges. Also, reading is just so much fun!

1. My favorite library memories would have to be taking my kids to story time and to get their first library cards. They‘re more into screens nowadays but the wonder that filled their little faces will forever be ingrained in my mind.

2. Mostly Amazon 😬, Barnes & Noble, and indie shops.

3. Currently reading Muse of Nightmares, The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari, and listening to The Wandering Inn, Vol. 1.

1. That you have no idea what can be motivating people‘s unpleasant behavior. I‘ve worked with kids whose disruptive, defiant behavior drove me crazy, but when I learned what was going on in their lives, I wondered how they had the energy to even get out of bed in the morning. 😢
