A day home.Snow/freezing rain expected.I was surprised! I have to laugh when I think of all of you in states with heavy snowfall,because today we expect 3-4 inches.Snow supposed to start falling at 10:00. We have no walkers in our district due to lack of sidewalks.Thus, it becomes a busing issue & at times the bus company‘s call. No complaints here; I woke at the same time I always do.It‘s been quiet, contemplative.☕️📚🙏🏻

Bookwormjillk I love your mug! Enjoy the day.

We were hoping for a 2 hour delay here, but all we got was rain. But it's ok- first day after Thanksgiving break I think they were secretly happy to go back.

kspenmoll @Bookwormjillk I plan to enjoy this gift of a day! 19h
Amiable I‘m working from home today. It‘s not heavy snow that bothers me —as a native New Englander, I can drive in that. It‘s the icy rain/sleet mix that keeps my butt in the house. Nope. Not going to get on I-95 if there‘s a chance of slick roads. People already drive like idiots on that highway in good weather. 😖 18h

A mix of non-fiction, contemporary mysteries, a historical mystery, literary fiction.

This was a deeply reflective and also heartbreaking read, given current events in Gaza. Nikondeha positions the stories of Advent in their historical as well as present-day context, offering fresh insights and thought-provoking connections I hadn‘t previously considered. Her discussion of Mary and Elizabeth as a story of resistance was profoundly moving for me this Advent.

A children‘s Christmas book with 25 chapters so could probably be used as an advent calendar as well.

A pixie looses his hat and mittens in some bad weather and where to the wind take them but to the rabbits. The rabbits suddenly starts hearing about a pixie coming for Christmas and start preparing.

The illustrations were amazing and I particularly loved all the ones with rabbits in them.

TheBookHippie This looks lovely! 11mo

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Really beautiful Advent devotional.
I especially liked the first week of readings, and I think it‘s one I‘d come back to in future years.
