It’s time for another update as I continue to work toward my ambitious goal of reading 1000 books. My winter reading update covers what I’ve been reading in November, December, and January, along with a peek at what’s next on my reading list.
January 2025 roundup – Great reads and goals update
February is here, meaning the countdown to spring is on. How are you doing with your goals for 2025? In addition to my goals update, my January 2025 roundup has terrific posts on Schitt’s Creek, supporting each other in difficult times, and the benefits of a morning routine.
December 2024 roundup – Great reads and goals update
And just like that, 2024 is in the books and we’re halfway through the first month of 2025. In addition to my goals update, my December 2024 roundup has terrific posts on decluttering, and getting started even when we don’t feel ready.
November 2024 roundup – Great reads and goals update
And just like that, we’re into the final month of 2024. In addition to my goals update, my November 2024 roundup has terrific posts on slowing down and taking our time, sharing our gratitude, and continuing to find ways to be vulnerable.
Fall reading update – The road to 1000 books
Earlier this year, I set an ambitious goal to read 1000 books—something I expect will take me many years. My fall reading update covers what I read from July 27 to October 31, and a peek at what’s next on my reading list.
October 2024 roundup – Great reads and goals update
As I sit down to write my October roundup, I’m sad that my favourite month of the year is over, but grateful for the spectacular display of fall colour we enjoyed in October. Along with my goals update, my roundup has insightful posts on retirement learnings, asking the right questions, and keeping the magic in everyday life.
September 2024 roundup – Great reads and goals update
Welcome to October, my favourite month of the year! In addition to my goals update, my September 2024 roundup has insightful posts on fast fashion, the value of work, decisions and values that shape our lives, and inspiring sustainable behaviour in our kids.
August 2024 roundup – Great reads and goals update
Welcome to September. How is it possible that we are two-thirds of the way through 2024 already? I was away in Ireland for more than half of the month, so my August 2024 roundup is a little lighter than usual.
In addition to my goals update, my August 2024 roundup has an insightful post on life lessons none of us learned in school.
July 2024 roundup – Great reads and goals update
Summer is rolling along, and I can’t believe I’m writing my July 2024 roundup already. In addition to my goals update, this month’s roundup has insightful posts on savouring every moment, life lessons from the Sunday funnies, and the new deinfluencing trend.
Paperback Book Day – Time for a reading update
Today is Paperback Book Day—a day set aside to celebrate a creation that changed the nature of reading forever. What better day to publish the first progress update on my retirement goal to read 1000 books!
