I'm a new fan of iris flowers🪻. All of these I found l growing on a different part of this property where they wouldn't bloom. Moved them here, stuck in some lavender plants, and I just love how it looks and smells in the spring. Honey bees are pretty happy 🐝

Switched from Duo to Babbel after 18 months, don't know if it's just the change, but I'm liking it much better.

Even though in my twenties I was battling bulimia and near poverty, hearing the right song from that era brings back all the joyful parts like living on my own in a home place, being in love, and having your whole life ahead of you. The power of music!

Get this! #newrelease #horror

In trying to get over my first scathing NetGalley review, I found reading other hate-reveiws of books I loved rather helps.

Thanks for this @janefriedman.com I'm getting a lot of 3 star reviews on netgalley, but most of these are still recommending it to their audience. If you're at a Thai restaurant and they ask you on a scale of one to five how spicy your food should be, remember 3 is still pretty hot!

Moving day! We are resettling into a 30-foot travel trailer, while we remodel one more house, hopefully our last! I do a door tiny spaces, though. This kitchen makes me happy! "Enforced low-clutter".

Anyone here on Tumblr? I'd like to connect. I'm there as me, gianaclis. Let me know your username! #tumblr

Inspecting the first proof of my new book. What you think kitty cat? Me, I'm still out on the ground wood/eggshell paper from Ingram Spark. #indieauthor #cosyhorror

Six years of sentiment turned to ash. In downsizing and not wanting to leave too much behind, I burned the stacks letters V and I wrote to each other while dating long distance in the days before email and easy phone calls! Hard to say goodbye to the proof 40+ years later.

TODAY! It's not too late!
