Congratulations on writing every day in November! I've never participated in that, but have always wanted to. Can't wait to see what Sonya amazingness comes from it.

Also - those favorite things tweets. Goodness. Thanks for the giggles!

I loved The Family Switch!

I β€œfailed” at reading the whole Bible in a year (again), and decided to go with a two year plan starting in January. Wish me luck. πŸ™ˆ

3. Are you going to spend one of those full effort three weeks writing to us giving us a hint about your freelance work? Or your book?!?

That Dolly Parton quote. But add Taylor Swift into the mix for VP.

When I really need to lean into my sad girl Christmas feels, this one does the trick. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/09a7eiHCyx08l9DOlG00IL

Also the Norah Jones Christmas album has been a favorite for happy hour.

Feel better, Sonya! I’m one week into that brutal β€œcold” defying all laws of nature after a week of croup and an ear infection with the little guy. Ugh. We’re ready for some Merry over here! We were also surprised fans of Family Switch ❀️

Ugh, my daughter had something similar. Finally got her some Zithro, but then she got another cold two weeks later, and I’m worried about a relapse. Feel better!!

My playlist suggestions: Sufjan Stevens Songs for Christmas, Jars of Clay Christmas Songs (both older albums, but I love them), Joy Williams’ Here With Us, Future of Forestry The Earth Stood Still, Brandon Heath’s In the Bleak Midwinter, and Sarah Mclachlan’s Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas.
