Been at it since May & the novelty has long worn off on clearing out the 100-year-old hoarder house I inherited from my parents. Between the mold & the ridiculous heat & no electricity & the despair, I think it might just kill me. Going up in the attic tomorrow, pray for me 🙏🙏🙏

My millennial nephew: "Who's Rick Rogers?" 😆😆😆 From my parent's house, my mom was using it as a drawer liner in her desk drawer. Sacrilege! I didn't realize I'd been neglecting BlueSky for so long. The house clearout & not succumbing to heat exhaustion,is taking up all of my time and energy.

May reading wrap-up! It was a pretty good reading month, I'd hoped to finish a couple more books but life got in the way (I hate it when it does that lol). Mostly ARCs, and my top read of the month was Dolly All The Time by Annabel Monaghan 🥰 #BookSky 💙📚🌶

Storygraph reading summery for May 2026. 13 books total, a mix of NetGalley ARCs and KU borrows. I need to start reading my library books but I have a backlog of ARCs to get through first

Getting ready to have a hastily thrown together garage sale for my disabled sister who's moving away from her ridiculously hostile and verbally abusive neighbors. Should be tons of fun!

Two women in conversation: one says "WTF is wrong with you?" and the other replies "You mean today or like in general?"

Happy pub day to Dolly All the Time by Annabel Monaghan! I love this author's genuine characterizations & the hope & love in all of her stories. Anyone who has been a caregiver will relate to Dolly & root for her relationship with Stewart. 5 stars! #BookSky 💙📚 app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/23a9...

I mean, reading is definitely fun but the rest of it is also totally accurate 😆😆#BookSky 💙📚

Screenshot of a post by @Caffeinated Liha, stating: "Read books!" they said. "It'll be fun!" they said. Now I have a reading addiction, impossibly high standards and I'm unsatisfied with the world.

It's no mystery why I like the dissociative nature of reading romance books. I get to step out of my frustrating life & into a world that is hopeful & has an ultimate HEA. I don't have to manage anyone else's problems or expectations, I just get to sit back and enjoy the ride. It's therapeutic 💙📚

Today's installment from my parents' hoarder house cleanup: late 20th century ephemera! 1980 bumper sticker from defunct Orlando radio station BJ105; US bicentennial patches; groovy sticker pack; and 1973 "Great Burgerini" sticker from Burger Chef (also defunct) #Vintage

Circa 1980 bumper sticker from top 40 radio station BJ105, broadcasting to the Orlando area. Sponsored by Super Skating Centers

I thought this was a sticker but it may be an iron-on patch. The Great Burgerini from Burger Chef, circa 1973

Super groovy psychedelic name stickers for "Paul" (my dad, this had to have been a gag gift because he was the least psychedlic person I've ever met)

Maybe iron-on patches? Two patriotic items commemorating the bicentennial. It was SUCH a huge deal in 1976, you don't even know

Next up from my parents' hoarder house cleanout, entitled "Why Did They Keep This Empty Box For 45 Years?" But haha joke's on me, the box wasn't empty! It was jammed full of crumpled-up newspapers from August 1979! why just why 😭

Newspaper ad from August 1979 when it was a big selling point that the Audi 5000 didn't need unleaded gas (gas crisis?)

Newspaper ad from 1979, where you could rent that behemoth of a TV for just $10 per week!

Newspaper ad from 1979, just look at the prices for that audio equipment!

Starting a multi-part pictorial series because I have to share this stuff with somebody: "Interesting Stuff I Found While Cleaning Out My Parents' Hoarder House." Part 1, ancient telecommunications: a 1968 Philadelphia phone book & an early 20th century wooden magneto crank telephone from Canada

Philadelphia phone book from August 1968, published by TheBell Telephone Company of Pennsylvania

Crank magneto telephone from the early 20th century, wood and brass, from Canada. Bonus repro Crosley radio in the back from the 80s, the kind you can play a cassette tape in

An early memory is seeing my 1st movie in a movie theater in August 1977, it was Star Wars. My sister & I loved it so my dad went & bought tickets to the next showing & we watched it twice. Mom thought we were too young for the scary parts & she distracted us with M&M's lol #MayThe4thBeWithYou

It's been so interesting to watch this unfold. Barnes & Noble and other big book chains shut indies down in the the 1990s (and on) and then Amazon came along and ate up all the book market share. Now people tired of big corporations are creating demand for more indies
