I’m wondering if the super conservative people left to run that other network where kissing is considered too racy.

They do some fall stuff but you’re right, they’ve been reluctant to do Halloween haven’t they?
I’m imagining the meetings…”it’s not romantic enough, people can’t drink wine to this!”
“They can still have a fundraiser or barn dance though, let’s give it a shot”

I’m doing fine but I do need to be swaddled and might scream.

So excited to hear @simplyrain.bsky.social at #AASL25!

Brilliant idea - book repairs as a way to grow the school library community!

[Giving myself a pep talk but I thought it might be helpful for someone else to hear it too]
You know...it's ok if you wanted something and went for it.
It wasn't pathetic. You were vulnerable and that's good.
Brave even.
And now it's fine for you to decide it wasn't for you and move forward.

Update: I moved the bookshelf into another room to make room for the tree and now I’m taking a break. This is going to be a multi-day process.

Do I need to put my Christmas tree up?
Again there are no rules this year.
I think I’m gonna do what makes me happy. I can celebrate Halloween and Christmas simultaneously.

A fun one from Hallmark.
9. Haul out the Halloween.

It’s starting with Lacey’s character getting married. This series has generally been about house decorating shenanigans so I’m assuming that’s happening, just for Halloween and not Xmas.

I can’t wait for this rewatch.

Solid hit Wendy. Nicely done.

A few years ago, I really started seeing the movie from her point of view. And I realized how lonely it must have been for her.

All right, giving The Shining another go.

“Of course I intended to change my jacket this evening before the fish and goose soiree.”

Peaches, a neighborhood cat, had a lot to say this morning. Probably like, "Where have you been? I haven't been fed in one whole hour, do you have food? Everything is terrible"
And allowed 2 scritches.
More than 2, caused some sass, of course.

I’m gonna need a re-do on the Shining. I missed the beginning and went to bed before it was over…I was too tired to pay much attention in the hotel room honestly.

I just got a text from an unknown number asking me “are u up?”
It’s 6:25pm.
So, I didn’t answer, but I was like “yeah I am awake at 6:25 in the evening.”

Even if you don't think your presentation went all that well, you still get to say you did it.
