I saw @theauthorguy.bsky.social at a @bookshopsantacruz.bsky.social event tonight. He talked about his new book, Anima Rising. It sounds fabulous. It was great to see him in person and he signed my old favorites from college. Then I went to East Cliff to check on the ocean.

I am starting my first stranded color work hat. I am ambitious and got plenty of yarn.

It was 29deg this morning! I didn’t have gloves while cleaning the horse corral. Eilidh Mae’s curly mane was a good hand warmer. #curlyhorse

I worked in my garden and found my stone rabbit has grown a green coat. #hope #community

Now I am reading The Garden Against Time by Olivia Laing. It has the prettiest cover I’ve seen in years.

I read this as part of my winter reading program at Bookshop Santa Cruz. The author came and spoke. The book has solid interesting characters. #RituMukerji
