Hey guys,

I’m going to be real with you. This month has been so incredibly hard for me. Between having major surgery, dealing with SAD, and the state of the country, I’ve had to take a step back from a lot of things.

But hopefully, I’ll start getting back in the groove soon. (Depending on how long this foot-thick sheet of ice that is my farm right now takes to melt.)

I didn’t read a lot this month. But that’s okay! I gave myself some reprieve with my goals this year reading-wise because I know I have a LOT coming up in the next 365 days. I recently got a promotion at work, I’ll hopefully be breaking ground on my new home, I’ll be graduating from college, all while navigating my new health situation. But reading has always been an escape for me, so it will continue to be just that!

So don’t be alarmed if you don’t hear from me much in the coming days/weeks. Just know that I will always be back!

Xoxo,
Maggie❀️

Guys. I’m going to be really open and honest. I am struggling. I am so weary.

I feel so heavy and like I’m not doing enough. People are being gunned down in the streets and I. Don’t. Know. What. Else. To. Do.

So I do this.

It’s not much. It’s not enough. But it’s all I know to do right now.

Truth be told, I am so scared. For my life, for my loved one’s lives, for the lives of every single innocent person in this country.

I cannot stay silent. Silence means being complicit.

So I read. And you should too. Because reading is resistance.

Hey everybody. I am having surgery tomorrow, January 6th. I will be offline for the majority of my recovery, sharing only bits and pieces. I still have a blog scheduled to come out Wednesday, and it’s a super cool one (that you should definitely check out!

Have a great day, and I will see everyone on the 20th!

Yesterday I had the pleasure of attending the closing night of 🀎

We had an absolute blast watching fun shows, eating yummy food, drinking hot chocolate and boozy eggnog, checking out all the lights, and doing some shopping!

Yuletide Village takes place at the Ohio Renaissance Festival every holiday season!
