How did we become the cursed house with the ice cream truck parked in front of our driveway? Not only do we get to hear the crappy carnival music on full blast, but we also get to hear my two dogs and my neighbors’ two dogs lose their ever lovin’ minds!
I am the rat king. Not even a queen because rats have no queen—just a king and a race. Read on at: amysondova.substack.com
Sorry, Narnia gang, but this was the first C.S. Lewis I read and it’s my favorite of all his books and one of my all-time favorite books. Eros and Psyche was my favorite Greek myth so this book was perfect for a high school freshman’s book report…

No, Jovie, Tilly does not want to play fetch with you.
From the “Be My Boo” ghost, which can be used for Halloween AND Valentine’s Day, to the ghost with a bouquet popping out of its head, I’m here for the girlie ghost trend. Forget Sunburned Girl Summer and make way for Ghostie Girl Fall.

I went to a local author Miranda Reese’s launch for her debut novel, Checking You Out, and not only got a great new book, but made a new friend! #mirandareese #checkingyouout #debutauthor #romcomreads
After parading around in her petunia stem hat, Tilly ate it when it fell off of her head. She regularly eats collard green, mustard greens, clover, dandelion, violet, broadleaf plantain, cosmos, petunias, dandelion, zinnias, evening primrose, clover, pansies, violets, & coneflowers.
Arrow usually attacks my phone when I take her pic, but this morning she was more interested in head pets.
This man, who is totally a real four-star general called me “glorious” and now I will settle for nothing less from all future men who wish to woo me. I mean, I blocked this scammer, but still…the point remains.
Guess which pet got off his leash and joyously romped from yard to yard and chased bunnies through the back fields of our house and which one ate a purple petunia. 🐶🐢🌸

Trump’s inflation is hurting everybody. Amanda is spending almost $100 on gas each week as electricity bills double. Trump’s reality is hitting her family hard.
Several months and 75,000 words later and here I am! First draft completed. Next up, revisions, revisions, revisions!
Me earlier today: “Sorry, I’m late. I lost track of time reading French faerie tales.” At least I was meeting up to buy books so it was semi-understandable. What’s a bizarre reason you’ve been late?
This is one of my new fave coneflower hybrids. We accidentally planted it in the way back garden. Oh well. We’ll move it some year.

Tilly doesn’t just eat her food; she also plays peekaboo! And apparently wants to become a Crawler.
Wars no one asked for… President Trump said it’s not possible to pay for Medicaid, Medicare, and daycare for Pennsylvanians because “we’re fighting wars.” app.sosha.ai/s/7TOQfNyn

It would make a great tortoise table and make add a special weapon for the 20th Maine.
