friday i'm in love...(with one small rant)(but mostly love) :)

October 4, 2024 Arlene Giddings

I came to do
Friday I’m in Love
but I feeling so happy
from my Friday adventure
that it’s all that I want to
talk about.
😊

I wasn’t going to go far
but ended up going pretty far
for staying on the island…
all the way to East Point Lighthouse.
(Also can I complain just a tiny bit
about how gawd-awful ugly all that
metal fencing is around the site….
I mean I get that it’s dangerous
but really…that fence completely ruins
absolutely any view you have there…
can someone please fix this?
Honestly, I was so disenchanted by it
that I don’t think I will ever go back again.
Seriously. The fence is hideous.)
(Rant complete)

I made a stop at one of my most favorite places,
Mooney’s Pond.
I had the whole trail to myself for about 2 hours.
The leaves are changing color,
it was the perfect temperature,
and the sun came out while I was there.
🌞

I shot a wedding last weekend,
the first in a long time…
and doing that made me want to take the
big camera out with me today.
And I was so glad I did.
It was a perfect day to get lost
looking for the light.

Other things I love:

♥ rewilding…I know I shared this before but
it’s something I really would love to know more
about and would love to see take off and be considered
the norm.

♥ reading nooks

♥working on homework today while I was out and about
for the creativity course I signed up for…gathered items
while out for my walk today

I hope you had a fantabulous friday…
there are lots of other things I want to talk about
(like…did you read the ACOTAR books?
I am dying to talk about these! And Perfect Couple…
the netflix series vs the book! but I digress…
future posts…haha)

but I will say one last thing
because he is on my mind a lot
right now…
my dad would love Mooney’s Pond.
🩵💙🩵💙

whatcha readin'? {goal 41::book 1-3}

January 29, 2024 Arlene Giddings

Most of January’s book reading time
was absorbed (happily)
by A Court of Wings & Ruin
but the month isn’t over yet.
:)

I find reading about subjects
that I am currently processing
in my head and my heart
to be helpful.
Not always and not all of it
but I have to admit that there
are always some little kernels of
truth or hope or “oh…that’s me, too!”
that I find helpful.

So I am not going to rate the first book
other than to say
that it was helpful in some ways
and it made me think.

Book 2 was the “Draw Everything” book
which was interesting
and I enjoyed playing with some of the
examples and suggestions.

Book 3. Oh. Book 3.
Which is the 3rd in this series
and SOOOOO good.
It took me a little bit to read cause…
well…pages. Lots of pages.
But it kept me enthralled from start to finish
and surprised me in a couple of
tense hold-your-breath spots.
♥♥♥♥♥ out of 5 for that one!

NEXT UP:: BEACH READ - EMILY HENRY
cause I need a little lightness…and I love her books.

and part of the bookmark project! :)

What are YOU reading?? :)

In whatcha readin', glee2024 Tags books, i like big books and i cannot lie..., avid reader, sarah j maas, ACOTAR
