Forgot to post my #LitsyWalkers photo from yesterday‘s walk. We went to one of the wetlands parks near us and walked the boardwalk. It was slow because I stopped to take so many pictures, but it was beautiful. We walked for a little more than an hour, although my Fitbit didn‘t give me any active minutes 😊

Anyone else here addicted to squishies??? No? Just me? Ok, cool....
For the record im an extreme fidget, though i prefer the word animated, and these help me. I use fidget spinners but they make noise, so these are the silent option. Very satisfying! These smell like almond too!

Squishy swap anyone?? 🤔

Alfoster On a related note (you‘ll see why), you need to see the movie Game Night!😂😂😂 7y

Sisterhood & the ties that bind is at the center of this story. When Luna‘s sister is dunked in the river & gets sick with the wasting illness from which no one recovers, Luna will do anything to save her. Separated and unable to reach her sister Gia, Perdita has gotten angrier & angrier & angrier with terrible consequences for everyone. A good MG read for kids interested in friendship, family & a hint of magic. I enjoyed it & will recommend.

It‘s one of those days when both jobs collide—archaeologist me has to approve drawings for the volume I am editing and librarian me has to make sure everyone has a good book to read over Spring Break—but I have a few minutes to start the morning the right way. So it‘s coffee, a treat, and a chapter or two.

This is another book that caught my eye as I was straightening the shelves in the library today. Another gorgeous cover and a MG story with an intriguing premise. Here‘s hoping I go two for two with my random bookshelf finds today.

Why does the rapid flooding in Houston effect such a WIDE swath of land, extending as far east as south western Louisiana (including Lafayette - my home)? Could it be? That our gulf coast is erroding out from under us?

jpmcwisemorgan We're seeing the effects of building at or below sea level, filling in wetlands, and not following through on recommendations for infrastructure. It doesn't help that urban areas, filled with concrete and asphalt, have few places for water to go. Add in climate change and the coastal US is basically screwed. We know what to do but we don't do it because it will cost money. 7y
LuLeeBelle @jpmcwisemorgan my friends who live in the quick-growing community Youngsville can vouch for that! Neighborhoods that have never had problems for decades are suddenly flooding at any rainstorm. The change is that subdivisions are being built in what had very recently been farm land, vital for drainage. 😒 7y

Sweet story with a strong heroine. Great for chapter book reading with kids; kids are central to the story as are sister relationships.
