Discovering Books & Getting Back Into Reading

Discovering Books & Getting Back Into Reading

One thing I have been really wanting to do for a while is get back into reading. I used to use around one to two books a week, and now I'm lucky if I manage to read one every other month.

Pixie Turns Three Years Old

Pixie Turns Three Years Old

My little baby is growing up, today is her three year old puppy that I've had since she was twelve weeks old. Pixie Bug Jackie Young is her official full name or PBJ for short. Her mother was a rescue in Tennessee that was abandoned in a railroad car where she was found to be pregnant by a rescue group. Now no one believes this, but her mother was a fawn colored Welsh Corgi.

We originally were going to adopt her sister Romana, but after meeting half of her siblings ended up driving home with Susie as she was called at the time.…

And just dealing with anxiety in general. Which I thought would be helpful to share.…
