I can't believe it's the first Wednesday in May. It feels like I just wrote my April list... Oh well, moving on! Maybe I will be able to write the June entry not from my house. I don't know where I'd go to do it...I'll just go to a random coffee shop simply to do it from somewhere else. My Current Books Right now, I'm rereading Anne of Green Gables . Such a good, wholesome, nostalgic read! And since I got the 1980s mini-series on DVD a few Christmases ago, I am definitely watching that when I'm done! Now I have done a lot of reading during the quarantine time, so while I'm not reading these right now, these are the books I have read in entirety during this time: North and South by Elizabeth Gaskell The Reluctant Warrior by Mary Connealy Wishful Drinking by Carrie Fisher Before We Were Yours by Lisa Wingate Sophia's War by Avi Don't Overthink It by Anne Bogel The Lost Lieutenant by Erica Vetsch Twisted Twenty-Six by Jan...
I have a confession to make. I'm about to bore you to tears. Okay, maybe not literally, but I'm writing about something I find terribly exciting, and there are those of you, dear readers, who may not agree. So I'm giving you an out.

**Disclaimer: I actually wrote this two weeks ago, but for some reason, it never posted.** Having spent the last day and a half moving furniture and tearing out carpet to make way for much needed new carpet ( much needed...green shag has to go!), I have been thinking about my dream home quite a lot. The things I want, the things I certainly don't want...and I thought this might make a list. I won't put a number on this list, because I have no idea how many things I will be able to come up with...I'm very tired and sore! So, in no particular order... The Top [insert number] Features of my Dream Home 1. A view This is quite important. I want to be able to look out my windows and not see an ugly house or a gas station. It might not be much, but I like that when I look out my windows now, all I see is cornfields (and bean fields). I don't care if it is water or mountains or prairie--at least one side of the house needs to have a beautiful view. 2. A kitchen isl...
