2026 Reading Plan
Book mail is the best mail! Franz de Waal’s Are We Smart Enough is the upcoming read for Science Book Club and I’m so excited to get started. And Dubliners is a must-read of Irish Literature (so says Cillian Murphy). #2026reading #tbr #reading #books #personalscholar I’m about to micromanage tf out of my family. #commencingmicromanagement #skylightcalendar Book mail is the best mail! Getting a late start for PHM - but I’m getting ready to start the audiobook and will finally watch the movie. I need a hard copy for notes. #2026reading #sciencefiction #personalscholar #books #reading My yellow bellied racer skeleton, or what survived. It took one week for the flies (and larvae) and ants to completely break down the flesh. I’m bummed I only have a few tiny ribs. We had a thunderstorm come through and though I protected it from the rain the wind was not kind. I’ve got to come up with a more secure way to monitor decomposition and keep the skeleton intact. And my spouse wasn’t a big fan of me laying it on cardboard on our picnic table. 🫠 #texas #texassnakes #naturestudy Nature study isn’t always pretty, but it IS interesting! A few days ago my son found this snake on the road and carried it home to me (my kids are the best!). It was fully intact on Wednesday when I set it out but you can see what has happened over just a couple of days. Most of the middle has been consumed, the tail area is currently being broken down (see the maggots?!), the head region is still intact. It’s fascinating to watch in real time. You can’t tell at this point, but this is a yellowbellied racer. #texas #texassnakes #naturestudy This morning I had a Black-bellied Whistling Duck hanging out on my property. He or she (they are monomorphic so I can’t tell) called like this for several minutes, quite a treat for me! Another one showed up and flew over and further into the trees. Eventually my new friend flew off to meet them. I live close enough to the lake so not unusual for them to be in the area but I don’t typically see them on my property. #texas #texasbirds #birdwatching Snake porn. My spouse surprised two rat snakes doing the deed on the back patio. He tried to get a good video for me but he surprised them and they fled. I managed to pull footage off the security camera. Fingers crossed for snake babies! #texas #texasrstsnakes New books this week. My daughter wants to read Shutter Island (neither of us has ever seen the movie) and Salt Water is a mystery recommended to us by a BN employee, and looks fascinating. And I was happy to see they sell a pocket version of the US Constitution - and for $2 there is no excuse for anyone to not have one. I may order a case to distribute to people. 😬 #books #reading #2026reading #personalscholarship Book mail is the best mail! I’m reading through The Daily Stoic this year, and wanted to add this to the list for later this year. #books #reading #2026reading #stoics
