Nine years ago today I started this blog.
It has been an interesting and sometimes long slog. I don’t have a lot to talk about in the state of the blog, with a new job starting in December I didn’t get to do any of the enhancements I was hoping to do.
I saw a bunch more bloggers disappear and/or shift to bookstagram/booktube. I’m both happy for them because they found a venue they enjoy, but also like meh because I rarely watch videos about books and most of the bookstagram posts seem to be more about the photo and staging than content or creation.
June was an incredibly busy month! We traveled to the West Coast for almost two weeks for a wedding and to see friends/family, I read 14 books, and we did some local exploration too. June was also pride month, and shockingly—we usually avoid it because I don’t like crowds and it’s usually too damn hot in June—we actually attended pride in Portland, Oregon. See what I did with the rainbow hop and the intro…yeah 😀
This was actually a nice normal month. It didn’t feel like it flew by and it didn’t feel like it dragged either. Maybe this means I’ve started to find equilibrium in life?
