I, Kellie, soon to be known as Amma, hereby declare that before the birth of my first grandchild in November 2024, I will publish all my draft posts still diddling around aimlessly in my files.
Look for probably one-paragraph but no-less-than-one-sentence posts on the following topics or books listed in random order:
Beatrix Potter Book Repair (kb)
The Past is Myself by Christabel Bielenberg
Paradise of the Blind by Duong Thu Huong
All American Boys by Jason Reynolds and Brendan Kiely
Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee by Dee Brown
My Friend Jo (kb)
Faces (kb)
We're Gonna Party Like It's 1964 (kb)
ADDENDUM 20 March 2025:
I will not be posting anything for Faces or We're Gonna Party Like It's 1964 (the year I turned 60).
I said I'd be called Amma, but for now I'm Gramma instead.
What a great and relatable list! Preparing for a new baby can feel overwhelming, but having everything planned out like this is such a helpful guide. It’s like how marine insulation companies carefully plan and strategize to ensure systems are well-prepared and built to last, no matter the conditions. Similarly, marine pipe insulation is all about attention to detail and long-term sustainability, ensuring everything functions smoothly. It’s clear that this list, like the work in these industries, is all about setting up a strong foundation for the future. Thanks for sharing this thoughtful and practical advice!
his little to-do list made me smile! I love how you’re sharing your journey toward becoming Amma—it feels personal and genuine, not just another checklist. It’s inspiring to see you commit to finishing those drafts while also celebrating this special chapter of life. I always find posts like this comforting and real, especially when they’re written with heart. PS: Loved how easy it was to read and reflect—almost like using answer ai and best ai humanizer tools to make sense of thoughts before they become words!
Great job repairing and respining. I do not think I'd make the time, have the wherewithall or patience. Lucky grandchild(ren).
I hadn't seen this post, nice picture!
That’s a lot of books!
