Some days are hard days. Beau is a wonderful dog, but she is a rescue. As a rescue, she has a lot of idiosyncrasies. Her anxiety has gotten much better, but some days we end up in the closet just trying to get by.
The Color of Law by Richard Rothstein
Race is a complicated issue in the United States. The Color of Law goes a long way to explaining some of the intricacies. I have heard nothing but good things, and I can’t agree more. It serves as a timely reminder as to why voting is so very important.
Good & Mad by Rebecca Traister
Anger has been subdued, ignored, and vilified in women for-literally-ever. It’s not even something that can be discussed as if it’s in the past. Good & Mad is a look into women’s pent-up anger.
A Ballerina Halloween
Halloween has never been a holiday I get really excited about. I’ve always viewed it as the gateway holiday to the real party. This year I embraced my past and crazy-dog-mama side to be a ballerina with Beau for Blog + Dog Wednesday!!!
Impeachment
I probably recommend everything Jon Meacham touches. Impeachment is a tiny book jam-packed full of interesting facts about a well known word yet unfamiliar process. There is an under current of the thought that a vote on November 6th is a vote to impeach Trump or not. So go vote!!!
Starbucks
We love Starbucks. We love it even more because of the puppaccinos, good service, and convenient 532 steps away from my front door. It's the perfect good-girl treat for Beau and me!
