On a slightly different note, people often ask me about the different materials and fabrics that I use to pull up my hair in these videos. Well, news flash- most of the time they are neck gaiters. Seriously, I’m not joking. 🤗

My latest set comes from UNCO. When offered a chance to spread the word and receive a commission, I jumped on it. So, I hope you’ll check them out. I’d love to see you wearing them around your neck or in your hair. I’m also here if you need tips for your hair. 😉

Book Club Books

What I #read in Feb. ’23 & what I #amreading!

Today the IWSG Book Club launches our March discussion about what we are reading. It doesn’t have to be a book club selection just something you are excited about. Let’s all share what we are reading, and perhaps, we’ll find something to add to our own TBR lists. Click this link to go straight to the discussion. I’m currently reading Spiral of Hooves & In Darkness: The Vampire.

In February 2023, I completed 5 titles. My goal was 3. Two of the publications I read were novelettes in a series and one book I previously DNFed. I read through the first part very quickly to get caught up to where I originally left off. So far, I’m going well with my Goodreads Challenge.
