Review: Toolkit for Spiritual Growth

September 5, 2022September 5, 2022 / The Succulent Brew / Leave a comment

Toolkit for Spiritual Growth, written by Father Evan Armatas, carries the subtitle A Practical Guide to Prayer, Fasting, and Almsgiving, and it serves in this capacity quite well. It's a short book, with a little over a hundred pages, but it does not lack in content. This book is an informative, concise guide on three … Continue reading Review: Toolkit for Spiritual Growth

In Common – September 2022

September 3, 2022January 31, 2023 / The Succulent Brew / Leave a comment

I struggle with General Anxiety Disorder, and this year has been particularly stressful for many reasons. Unfortunately one of the ways my anxiety manifests is an inability to focus - not just on things like tasks or important information I need to remember, but also on reading. For months, starting as far back as the … Continue reading In Common – September 2022

In Common – October 8, 2021

October 8, 2021January 31, 2023 / The Succulent Brew / Leave a comment

I've got a great list of books and podcasts I'm working on this month. I'm also peppering my reading list with the occasional middle grade or YA fiction - some I am prereading for my younger kids, and a couple just because they are fun to read. So far, most of my time has been … Continue reading In Common – October 8, 2021

March 2021 Reading List

March 18, 2021 / The Succulent Brew / Leave a comment

I've decided to lighten my reading load a bit, and not over schedule like I have in the past. I still have a healthy stack I'm working through, but I'm not putting pressure on myself. I am also incorporating other resources that don't require me to have my face in a book. I have a … Continue reading March 2021 Reading List

New Year, New Start

January 1, 2021 / The Succulent Brew / Leave a comment

I know 2020 has been rough for so many people. I think we are all hopeful and maybe even optimistic that 2021 has to be better. I've never been one for New Year's Resolutions - they seem gimmicky and lose steam within weeks for most people. But I think the start of a new year … Continue reading New Year, New Start

One benefit of living in Texas - it’s riding season even into December! #motorcycles #womenwhoride #texas #harleydavidson #fortyeight1200 #xl1200
This is tasty. #texas #oklahoma #hatch22 #hatchchililager #craftbeer
Our Saturdays are spent mostly outdoors. Chairs around the fire, and potatoes just went into the coals. Corn just went on the grill. We rode dirt bikes this morning and I even managed to get another bed prepped for spring planting. The rest of the afternoon will be spent chilling outside with the chickens 🐓. #texas #ruralliving #gardening #outdoor
Chilly fall nights. My favorite. #texas #rural #countryliving
Slipknot @ AustinTX was awesome! - #knotfest2022 #slipknot #austintx
Ice nine kills was awesome! #knotfest2022 #austintx

I’m ready for October. I know I’m risking burnout I just can’t help it - I’ve got too many books in TBR. I could barely decide what to add to my current reads. I fell down a rabbit hole of Strong’s Exhaustive Concordance and the Interlinear Bible this morning so if I can keep those deep dives to a minimum I might make some progress on my book stack lol. #personalscholar #readinglist #personallibrary #homelibrary #readallthebooks #autism #adhd #parenting #orthodoxchurch #christian
I can’t help it - I just love magazines. I love adding them to my Current Reads stack! #personalscholar #homelibrary #readallthemagazines #magazines
This is a fantastic read - but I won’t lie - the caving descriptions are causing me physical anxiety. Reading these passages got me like “no, no, no, no, no” I gotta put the book down for a few minutes to recover lol! I’m done for the night after reading about Moss Chamber!! #personalscholar #readinglist2022 #underland #robertmacfarlane
I ended up ordering transparent sticky notes off Amazon. I was a little concerned about smudging but I have tested gel roller lens, ball points, regular and colored pencils. You can see where when I made a thicker line with the roller ball be I didn’t let it dry long enough bed so it did smudge a little. But otherwise I am very happy with my purchase. the order came as a box containing several individually wrapped smaller packets, which I actually find quite helpful. I would recommend these sticky notes. #officesupplyjunkie #officesupplies #stickynotes #marginalia #personalscholar
I went to Office Depot looking for transparent post its but they were out of stock. Found these instead. #officesupplies #officesuppliesmakemehappy #indexcards #booklover #personalscholar
Books have started to arrive - this can mean only one thing. The kids are officially homeschooling again. #personalscholar #homeschool
