    by Joli August 13, 2026
    by Joli August 13, 2026

    I find that July is either a month where I read a lot (hello, reading outside in summer) or not much at all (the busyness of summer gets to me). This year, it was a super busy month and I …

    by Joli May 9, 2026

    April was a ridiculous roller coaster here in terms of weather. We had days as warm as the 70s and as cold as the 40s, one day after the next. The month felt weird for me, too—like it went really …
