-Hey, y’all 👋🏼 Thank you so much for stopping by and checking out this week’s vlog. In this one, I dedicate all my reading time to starting and finishing Cassandra Clare's latest release, Sword Catcher. I also show you guys some of the new Christmas/holiday decor I got from World Market, and we decorate my home library for the holidays! Make sure you drink your water, be kind, and have a good day on purpose! 🫶🏻

I'm also in the education field - a university professor - and when you were talking about how you get home from work and plan to have dinner, get ready for bed, and read but then... just... don't? I absolutely felt that in my bones. In my very spirit. That's me on the three days I work because I want to be productive and read and clean and do the things, but I just... crash. I just give up on life by the time I get home at 5 or 6pm.

okay imo the best way to create a new habit is to tie it to a habit you already have. super random specific example: my cat's litterbox is out of the way so sometimes i have trouble remembering to do it every day. but every morning i make a keurig coffee. so while i'm waiting for my coffee to brew, i run down and do the litterbox and my coffee is ready when i get back. something like that! also i love the weekly vlogs but i do looove a productivity vlog.

Yesssss to a wrap-up! I like having the long weekly vlogs (keep them coming, Queen) and then shelter wrap-ups to watch … it’s not like the reviews need to be of a literary standard, just wanna hear ya rambling thoughts, haha. 💛
Regarding not needing a new month/year/etc to refresh: As Taylor Swift sings, "Today is never too late to be brand new." ❤Good on you for adding more flexibility to your mindset! I honestly just enjoy listening to you talk, like it doesn't matter so much if books are involved. So yes to productivity vlogs, reset vlogs, etc. I can't remember if you do any fancy paper planning (lol, to me that means stickers are involved), but I'd also be down for planner videos. I'm a digital planner these days, so I live vicariously through planner vids to get my fix.
I relate to needing a collar with a bell for your cat. The one day I took it off my cat is when she went missing for an entire day in the house. Why are all cats absolutely insane. 😂❤🐈⬛

Drove out to B&N (which is two hours away from where i live) and i had so much anxiety on the way there, because i wasn't sure about the whole light situations.... 🙈😂
I love watching your vlogs every week. I had covid shot#5 and flu shot on Monday as well as a headache on Tues. Reading I made progress on Fourth Wing. I am 330pgs in. I also have iron flame and sword catcher lined up on my kobo. The holds list at my library are way to high to get a physical copy. Please keep the great content coming. I hope you have a good week

I have scorpions in my house from April to Oct/Nov and they are annoying! I’ve found them in my shower too😬 I know people believe cats are immune but mine wasn’t. She got sick and was okay but it’s not true. I also have a desert tortoise and we have found them in his/her home outside..yuck! Thank you for the speech about being kind to yourself, especially about reading. I have iron flam and for some reason am not excited to read it. I started it and I enjoy it while reading but really have no motivation to read. Ugh! I’m thinking because October was a big month of new releases that I read (3) books so I’m maybe just in a tiny slump. Idk! Anyways, love your vlogs! Thanks for posting!

We have been warned of a very hot summer this year, so everyone is going to be worrying about 'fire' season from now on. The 'wild fires' are not something to look forward to, but Summer is the time for them. I am already looking forward to Autumn in March '24 . . .

Olivia.. girl... you keep saying if anyone cares, when it comes to Annabeth's updates. Never mind everyone else. B/c I care girl. I care. So go ahead and feel free to give me all the updates. Also, drink you water. You are always reminding me. So you know that I have to return the favor. .. Btw, I love your content.
Here are 2 tips that work for me on maintaining habits: 1. Make them achievable. Make the goal "open the editor and edit for 1 minute" rather than "edit all of todays videos" because sitting down is the hardest part and often you'll do more than 1 minute. Plus, if you can do it easily, you won't have that "well, I didn't do it yesterday" mentality that always causes me to quit. 2. Do it every day and keep track. Have a sticker on your calendar or an app on your phone that is prominent (I use a habit tracker app and have the habit as a widget on my iPhone home screen) so that it's in your face whether you've done it. If you keep track, you get a little happy rush for completing your task every day.

Ok so you always refer to your partner as your partner and are extremely gender neutral in an references, totally cool. But then, you say something like "Jake jumped on the bed" and I legit think you mean your partner pretty much everytime 🤣 unless of course its clearly a dog specific thing like chewing his foot 🤣 no pressure to change how you take about your partner, I respect that esp if it's their choice, but dang it's hilarious how I watch you at least once a week and when you mention Jake my brain thinks that's your partner 🤣 like why doesn't my brain think the tortoise is your partner or the cat? Basically, why does my brain do this? Also, as a kid my aunt had a bf named Jake so that may be why I auto humanize the name, but still, my brain fails... I get migraines when I ovulate and they can last until my cycle starts, so like 14 days, I take the pill and it's lessened them in both severity and frequency. Initially I thought it was computer/screen related until I started to track them and my cycle... I still ovulate with the birth control which isn't supposed to happen, but I've had a few miscarriages while on it so I know. Plus, I still get other hormone changes like tender boobs, PMS, and all that stuff before it's even a sugar pill day. Anyway, if you're not on the pill and you're not trying to get pregnant you may want to consider it to see if it helps with your headaches and migraines. Only suggesting BC you've mentioned many a headache over the months I've watched. I like an your videos but def love this style of a bit of everything! Have you done the 1000 books to have a library counting video? (Ive seen quite a few so can't remember without looking) but I think it's a fun one! 💞
Teaching is really hard. Nonetheless the outcome rejoicing
