I got 61% on the survey. Three of my favorites are coconut cream pie, key lime pie, and blackberry cobbler. But I don't eat any of those at Thanksgiving, so it's safe to say Thanksgiving desserts aren't my favorite. #TLT #ThreeListThursday @dabbe
Have you heard of REM Sleep Behavior Disorder? RBD is where one physically acts out vivid, often unpleasant dreams w/ vocal sounds & sudden, often violent arm & leg movements during REM sleep. Onset is generally gradual & can get worse over time. It seems I likely have it. I'm waiting for my sleep study results; my follow-up appt w/ the doctor's on Tues & it can't come soon enough! #WhatsNewWednesday @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @Read4life @Tiedyedude

I was hoping for a #CreepyChristmas swap again this year. @Teebe, are you planning on hosting again? If not, I would be interested in hosting. #CreepyChristmasSwap #LitsySwaps #LitsyEvents
I couldn't face the world yesterday, so I chose to stay protected inside the bubble of comfort and safety of home. I stayed off of social media and the news. I read, I cocooned, I drew. I finished this pumpkin charcoal drawing I had been working on a little at a time. Today I'm back at work but am remaining largely offline, and I found this gorgeous book that sounds very autobiographical. I can't wait to immerse myself in it!
Kicking off the weekend in the best way possible: curled up in my recliner with my doggy, a good book, and a warm cup of cider by the fire. Here's to a cozy, lazy, and rejuvenating weekend!
This is going to be fun! Thanks for putting this together, @avanders! Tagging @tiedyedude in case you're interested! #StuffedStockingSwap #SSS
In the underground city of Caverna the world's most skilled craftsmen toil to create delicacies beyond compare. The people of Caverna are more ordinary, but for one thing: Their faces are as blank as untouched snow. Into this dark and distrustful world comes Neverfell, a girl with no memory of her past and a face so terrifying that she must wear a mask, for emotions are obvious on her face, and that makes her very dangerous. #mask #wickedwhispers

I remember enjoying this alternate-history novel set in post-Civil War America, where the dead rise as zombies during the Battle of Gettysburg. The story follows Jane McKeene, a young Black woman trained to fight the undead, as she navigates a world of racial tension, survival, and rebellion.

1. My second and third grade teacher, Mrs. Woodbury. I loved her so much, and she was such a calming, soothing, and supportive influence in my life. She also encouraged my writing and penmanship and saw qualities in me that I didn't see myself.
2. My husband, Andrew (@tiedyedude). He's supportive, funny, loving, creative, and my favorite person.
@eggs #WondrousWednesday
1. Apples, watermelon, and pineapple. If berries were included, my answer would be different. 😁
2. Alice in Wonderland

For the #death prompt of #WickedWhispers, I have decided to share a copy of the letter my skeleton, Eliza R. Cage (R stands for Rib), sent to her boyfriend, Edgar, who resides in Colorado. She hadn't heard from him for quite awhile and was relieved to hear from him! 💀 ❤😁 (I apologize that the font is probably too small to read on a phone. I'll try adding the text to the comments section as well). @eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks
Very cute story; I highly recommend this quick read to anyone. 💀💗 #skull #wickedwhispers @eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks
