Went out on lunch for a bit of get-out-of-the-office shopping and found the cutest little bookish boo! This was at Marshall's, if anyone has one near them. So excited to find cute bookish things in the wild!

Avanders Hiya! You should have received your #fffs package last week sometime — did it arrive? (Did I just miss that? It happens 😉) 6d
Born.A.Reader Hi @Avanders I have not (or hadn't as of Sunday when I checked the mail). I'll check tonight when I get home. 6d
Avanders @Born.A.Reader oh no! Ah, I just did tracking and it looks like it was delayed and not delivered until yesterday - so that makes sense that you didn‘t see it on Sunday. 😅 6d

Brought my best friend to the Friends of the Library bookstore that I've been frequenting for years (her first time) for some much needed book therapy, and came home with this #bookhaul. She bought an equally large stack and instantly fell in love with the store. 📚 💕

TheBookHippie I love the Friends sales!!! 1w

We do not care that we asked our father to drive us/stay for a biopsy procedure for emotional support. Sometimes we just need someone to be there.
Which brings us to, we do not care that it's been almost a month of no contact from the man we thought was The One & then out of the blue said man asks our mutual friend how we're doing. We do not care that he asked bc we've been trying to get over said man.
We do not care.
...do we? 💔 #WDNCW @dabbe

AmyG I‘m sorry. No we do not care. Apparently you dodged one…with this guy. Hope the biopsy is negative. (edited) 2w

dabbe #oytotheultimatevey Thank you for sharing your heart; you're in a safe place with the #WDNCW group. Like @AmyG said, good dodge with the guy who couldn't/wouldn't be there. He's not worthy enough to lick your shoe. I hope your biopsy is negative and that your life moves forward in lovely ways. 🧡💜🩶 2w

A couple of days late, but the opportunity was too good to pass up for #wildlife for #Falling. An enterprising squirrel ran across the roof and scaled down the chain to the birdfeeder -but then couldn't figure out the gymnastics necessary to eat anything 😂🦫🐿

It was a slow reading month for me, which seems to be typical for March for some reason. I hope April will be a more book month. 📚
For those that watch A&E's Hoarders, the tagged book is by Dr Zasio, one of the therapists on that show, which I found really interesting. She's my favorite therapist on Hoarders.
