My Creatively Random Life

Following "Star Wars: Aftermath" and "Star Wars: Life Debt," Chuck Wendig delivers the exhilarating conclusion to the "New York Times" bestselling trilogy set in the years between "Return of the Jedi" and "The Force Awakens." It took me an exceptionally long time to listen to this because I did not want it to end.  These books were a great listen and one day when my Audible listen pile shrinks a little I will listen again.   I was heartbroken for much of this book, the senselessness of it all.  I cried a lot, as I did through much of the series.  Wendig really brought the emotion for me.  I loved these characters like they were family. I finished it yesterday and I am still a little raw from the whole experience.  It's kind of like how I still need a minute (or ten) after watching Rogue One to compose myself.  I loved the book, I loved how you can see where the First Order gets it's beginnings.  And I loved how it rai...

The latest crop of incoming postcards.  France, Germany and Russia.  I really love the card from France.  Truly my style.

I stumbled across this challenge on one of the book blogs I follow and decided that I had to join for the last month.  I love making new blogging friends but am horrible at commenting, so the challenge to HAVE to do it is something to force me to get outside my comfort zone.  Which is a thing I am working on this year. My partner that I was assigned is  Jorie for Jorie Loves A Story and her blog looks pretty cool.  I look forward to getting to know her over the next month.  It's a little nerve wrecking for me though as I signed up to comment 10 times and I barely manage to comment once a month with people I have been following for years and would consider a blogging friend.  Just because I get nervous and anxious about no one caring what I have to say. (I am kind of shocked that I manage to blog actually) Well shall see how this goes, hopefully I don't make an ass of myself. 

Hi everyone. Time for Friendly Fill-Ins Week 56.  Remember to leave your link at McGuffy's Reader. 1. A law I would like to see passed is _________________________. 2. My favorite card game is ______________________. 3. With Summer unofficially here,                                   . 4. A favourite Summer memory is                                   . Another week, another exciting fill in. 1) A law I would like to see passed is stricter drinking and driving laws.  It astounds me that people pretty much just get a slap on the wrist. 2) My favourite card game is Cards Against Humanity.  Not that we get to play it often, not enough adult time.  3) With Summer unofficially here, I am hoping to spend more time outside with Cat, enjoying the nice weather. 4) A favourite Summer memory ...

That time at Toronto ComicCon that we met Twilight Sparkle.

My mailbox got slammed yesterday, the poor mailman.  Here I haver the US, Russia, Germany, the Netherlands, Finland, Taiwan, France and the Czech Republic.  The Alaskan postcard there is a sticker as well which is super neat. 

I am a touch behind posting my incoming cards, only one day really so I have four cards to show you today. Two cards from Germany, one from Japan and one from Portugal.  My mailbox has been a little quiet since last week so I am sure it will blow up with cards again at any time now.
