Welcome to Litsy!

1 & 2 - I ordered 2 live albums and some leaf necklaces from Taylor Bradshaw during his Black Friday sale.
3. This stray cat that my mom & I have been calling Tom has been staying here more often. We‘re going to get him checked for a microchip. He brought us a gift. He caught a rat in the backyard and left it by the back door.
4. I did the #threelistthursday survey.
5. I completed my #weeklyfavorites graphic with a book I DNF‘d.

1) My faith which keeps my head above water during these times ( I am a Pisces so I have used the screen name drowning fish) 2) My mom and that she is doing good. The ENT finally cleaned out her ears! 👍🏽 but she still can‘t hear me which just proves she needs hearing aids. Please pray the insurance pays for them. TBH no one can hear me, lol I have a “very soft voice” like the “ low talker” on Seinfeld. The upstairs neighbors are already loud m

A day-of #5JoysFriday after working all day. At least it was pretty quiet & I got some stuff done. But here‘s my list:

1. A vivid sunrise on my Hilo flight. 🌅💛

2. An overdue joy, my #travelingstars box from @BookwormAHN I was sick when it arrived Halloween week & I put it away to open when I felt better & forgot.🤦🏻‍♀️Ashley is always so generous & the Samhain box, cookbook, coloring book, book pouch & coffee brought me joy. 🧡Thank you! ⬇️
