Today Is Saturday, September 6, 2025: This Is What Happen.

 


Don't recall last time I shared any sort of stats, so I thought of sharing 9 stats from last month.


  1. I try to get the weather four times a day. I thought I would share the temps between 3 and 4 in the afternoon, that's usually hottest part of our day. We had two days at 90.0 (32.2) which was on the 12th and the 27th. The average temperature for the month of August 2024 is 84.7 (29.3)

  2. I try to drink fiber (Meta Mucil) 27 out of the 31 days in August. And I mange to get it in 63% of the time.

  3. My water intake I only made 22% of the time. My goal is to take 20 ounce or more of water. Out the 27 in the month of August.

  4. My non sweet day I manged it 57% of the time. I let my self have something like a cookies, every 3 days during the months. I feel much better limited my self sugars.

  5. Not counting my blog. I wrote 17.6% of the time.

  6. I took a picture 9% of the time.

  7. Most of my visitors to my blog was from the United States

  8. I only post 5 times in the month of August

  9. Posted 21 picture in month of August.

Not sure what my blogging will be the first part of September. Monday I go in for a mammaplasty. I'm sure there was days I forgot to cross off things on my tracker in my bullet journal.

Today Is Thursday, August 14, 2025: This Is What Happened.



Sure smokey. There plenty of fires burning around us. Although we don't see any flames which is good. Actually I like going outside. But with smoke it doesn't really allow me to go out and joy the mountain air. I understand rain is heading this way. Got my finger cross when rain comes that the lighting won't over power it.


I'm amaze how some people. Not sure if there actual people. I'm talking about the maga ones. Those Trump supporters. Some guy in the senior center thought Trump was for the working people. And that those tariffs was going help the majority of people. At this point the tariffs has put slight change on how we live. Then someone else said the demarcates just want to hand out free stuff. Statement time...Ones  needs to qualify.   Each of safety net program ones has guidelines. Opinion time...Most of them needs to be updated.  


This post was inspired by High Rise, and DRIVING. I understand young people isn't all that interested in driving. Driving is done by each state. When I was in high school back in the mid 70's it was offered after school, and it cost $20, that includes a learner permit. You had 15½. That was in the state of Washington. Although my friends which wasn't all that smart, and teenagers really don't make great choices. I had actually start driving around 13 years old. A few times I had to drive my dad home from the local drinking establishments. So after driving lesson I got my driving license when I was 16. And my driving test. I scored a 98% which was a the highest of that class. 

Now driver education is quite expensive now. In United States it will run between $400 and $800. Or one can wait til there 18 years old. And take that state written and driving test. With out driving-lesson your insurance will be at higher rate. Until your 25 years old. I'm thinking what my son had to pay for driving – lesson. I know it was under $400. Thinking it was between $200 and $250. Plus I understand cruising isn't a thing now days.


Took Murphy to the eye appointment for his pre-op for his cataract surgery on the 20th.

Today Is Friday, August 8, 2025: This Is What Happened

 

I should of done better, and I'm to lazy to fix my flub up, on Chat Gpt. But I know all of my readers are smart. Yesterday I ask Chat Gpt to look at my friend grandchild art work. So today I had chat gpt look at a friend and my WORK.




Got up at a quarter til 7 this morning. Had my morning coffee I like my coffee usually black. Once in while I will add a little milk. Sugar ruins the taste of coffee. Well that's my opinion. Did some morning stretches, and had eggs and toast for breakfast.



Son Sawyer is on his way up with his girls. Our fair is going on. I should have a chance to take Maud and Bree to the fair.

Plus I hope we get chance to do some art and craft stuff as well.


I'm linking to today's FACE OFF. Hope you have time to check some the work out.

Today Is Thursday, August 8, 2025: This Is What Happened.


 


Won't shove any of you down the rabbit hole. I couldn't tell you how many time I been down an rabbit hole. Mostly since the computers came out. Yesterday I attend my water color group. My friend brought her grandchildren a long. Took a photo of there work and went over to Chat Gpt and ask a few question about their WORK. So yesterday I watched a video on these two artist. Marc Chagall and Jean Dubufffet. I heard of Chagall. If it works out I will watch video on the other artist.




My friend Quenell took me out for lunch, we at Understand. We both had a cup of split pea soup and half sandwich. Before I meant Qunella I stop over at the hospital clinic and paid off one of my medical bills, and went to the library to set up appointment to have someone help me to design some flash cards. And drop off my water bill. So all the bills are paid for month of August.




This morning I walked down to end of the road. A little later on Murphy and I are going to take down an fence. Not sure if will get the entire fence down or not. If I had bet on it. I would bet not. No major project going on. Look like my son Sawyer and his daughter will be coming up this weekend. Hopefully we can take the girls to the fair.

Today Is Sunday, July 27, 2025: This Is What Happened.

 


Not sure what happened. I was in horrible pain. My hip! I kept buckling as I walked, or it felt like my hip was so loose in the socket. It was dangling like broken puppet.


I got most what I want done today, it was light day. The only thing I still need to wrap up my weekly part of my bullet journal for August. So today I made the bed, made the print on my next quilt block, and choose some embroidery floss. This up coming one is a kitchen table scene. And mowed our back yard.


Looked at price of larger trash can. I was shocked. Seem like can't find any under $50.


I though PENGUIN. Sunday five had some great question, and I decided to visit all who left comments.


1: What blog made you laugh this week?  There a lot that make me smile. I don't know where she finds them but I like “SHE WHO SEEKS” She finds interesting meme.

2: What blog made you think this week?  MATHEIKAL. He write on many topics. To me they all make me think.

3: What have you read this week?  I will continue reading, The Enchanted April, by Elizabeth Von Arnim

4: What was the best thing you have eaten this week?  At the senior center, Spare ribs, Baked Potatoes-with cheese, sour cream, bacon. Biscuits, and fresh fruit.

5: What was most relaxing for you this week? When moon changes I take it easy. Or I slow my pace way down. I don't have servants so I need to pick up after my self, and make my bed.

Today Is Monday, July 14, 2025: This Is What Happened.

 


The sun was behind the smoke as it went down last night. We had a wild fire about five miles from my  place. We couldn't really see much, no flames or heavy smoke. Look like it burn about 20 acres, which now is 25% contained. No homes was lost. But some out-building where lost. Not sure the cause of the fire.




Niece Edith and her husband Hans. Hans mother Qamra and her daughter Eirween had to be advocated. I don't know when the last time Qamra left her place. There quite a story behind these two. Actual it sad. Qamra mother died in state mental hospital. Looks like Qamra is following some of the same pattern. The local paper did an article on the FIRE. And posted on line. Our print paper comes out on Thursday. They might know the cause. (Niece Edith Photo)


Usually at night we open the windows, to let the cool air come though the house. With the smoke we didn't open the place. So the house never had chance to cool down. I got up around 7 in morning and it was fairly warm already. Looks like we will be having some cooler temps and rain. I just hope there enough rain to combat for possible lightening.


We did a few things. Took care of some paperwork. I know I mention it in my last post. But I got some file, then there where small amount I toss in a garbage can. The other bit needs to be put in the safety deposit box. Murphy and I tried to fix some sprinkles. I think we should just go buy one. We went to the senior center we had lasagna, with lamb. Plus green beans, toast, green salad, peaches.

Today Is Tuesday, July 8, 2025: This Is What Happened.



Look like it another hot day. I keep hearing it might even make about to about 95 (35). Went to the senior for lunch and they had chicken sliders. Plus there food give away.


I did some minor changes in my health habits. No eating between 5:30 pm and 8:00 But at times lives goals just puts a monkey wrench in it. And only only certain days I have sweets, which is these days, 3rd, 6th, 9th,12th, 15th, 18th, 21st, 24th, 27th, 30th. I eat naughty sweets. In about month I haven't quite lost 5 pounds.


This morning I order a 4 items on prime sale. I do have issue with billionaire not paying there fair share of taxes. I look up on how many billionaire they are in the world. According to A.I and Forbes they're 3,028 billionaire. All together they hold 16 trillion dollars in wealth.

So the items I order there no way I could got any of the items in my community. The closes items was shelf I could of went to Walmart just south of Sandpoint, in town called Ponderay. It 21 miles from my house. The other things was a nightwear, which I could get at Walmart. The other two items was art items and I think I would had drive to Spokane. I could think a few more items. But I had to tell myself no. I do that quite often. To tell myself no. 


Yesterday. I wrote out checks and paid the bills. The water, gas, and electric I keep current. Then my internet I pay quarterly and it due the end of this month. That got paid. And I paid two smaller doctor bills, both under $30. The other three bills I couldn't pay off completely. Two are medical, which I should pay off by the end of August. More medical bills to come. A lease most of medical stuff in this area will work with you. I promise them I will make a monthly payment of over $45 each month. And I didn't pay off the credit card. For some funny reason I like to eat and never know what will come up. Hopefully I will have to chance to pay more on my three bills that are dragging.


Off to Coeur d'Alene, Murphy need to see the doctor about his  hiatal hernia

Tuesday, July 01, 2025

Today Is Tuesday, July 1, 2025: This Is What Happened.


Hot and it might drop down into the 80's in a few days. My clothes and such is sticking to me like glue.


Look like both of sons are coming up for the 4th of July weekend. Sawyer and his girls is coming up on Thursday. Bart and his wife. Will be coming up on Friday. We have amazing firework show.

Since my granddaughter is coming up. I will go to the 4th July celebration. I do wonder if we will have a country by the next presidential election, which is 2028.


A lot is going on in the world. With the budget just past. Murphy and I will be okay. Not saying we won't happen to tighten our belt up. But I worry those who have mortgage or paying rent, with small children. The democrat party the last thing I heard of not to cut those with children under 12 from the SNAP. I'm still trying to figure out how people even voted Trump in office and his goones. The people it going to hurt is Liz and Regis. But the good thing about our up coming budget is that it still need to be voted by the house.


Went to the senior center for lunch, we had spaghetti, with homemade bread sticks, green beans, carrots, pears, and Cesar salad. Murphy don't care for Cesar salad. It okay, but not one my favors. They had there food give away. Lot fresh fruit was being offered. Wasn't today but some food give way. I'm guessing the end of June. We got some Oriental dish, with Cesar salad kit. We had the for dinner tonight. We heat the Oriental dish up in the microwave . As for the salad we toss out the dressing and add blue cheese. Basically a free dinner.


Yesterday Murphy and I after the senior center we went for a drive up in the mountains. Murphy went for a little hike and I did some sketching. Sunday I went to tea and tarot, done at the pearl.


It seem like there not enough time in the day. I need to get some printing done, and just seem not to find the time.

Today Is Saturday, June 21, 2025: This Is What Happened.

 

Last time I posted was on six day ago. The main reason I slice my blog posting. My life is same thing day after day. Nothing all that exciting I don't have no desire for being overwhelmed. Calm is fine with me. I'm not seeking thrills.



Last Saturday the 14th Murphy and I went to dance show, called “Alice Though the New Dimension” Here two of Granddaughter Claudia and Wendy. In there Caterpillar custom. With their dad Bart. It was fantastic show. Not because my Granddaughter was in it. It just good.




Also did art as well, today. We meant at the tea place here in Bonners Ferry. The theme lean toward summer. What something makes you shine. And or what makes you bloom. I face one of my shadow and made peace with it. Sad thing I know it was there but I never could figure out who it was. Well it was humiliation.


Before art I stop in at Grocery Outlet. To look for possible Birthday gifts. We have two granddaughter birthday this summer one in July and August. But the other two who already had there birthday this year, I like to get them something for under $7.00. I stop in at the dollar tree to find an index file and or recipe box. As I was checking out. I found a round box that I like much better, so I got two of them. And on the way home I stop at the animal shelter thrift store, Bought nothing. Last place I stop was at Super One store and got a few groceries. Mango's are .99¢ each.


The reason I got round box to make my own art and or writing prompts. So next month I will order some items though Amazon.

Today Is Friday, June 13, 2025: This Is What Happened.

 

I'm trying to open my search engine. I want to know if I dad was born on a Friday. His birthday is March 13. I was born on Friday. But the date was the 12th. It look like my dad was born on a Sunday. Since I'm days of the week, which my family was born on. I might as well look it up. My mom was born also on a Sunday. I don't know if it true or not. Back in the Puritans time if a person was born a Sunday. They figure 9 months back one was having sex. And one could be fine or even possible brought up to front of the church. Well it would be pretty hard to prove. Unless they had someone go around and peak in windows. Might as well look up date my husband and sons were born on. Murphy was born a Monday, Sawyer born on a Friday, and Bart was born a Thursday.


I don't why it took me so long to get my carpet vacuumed. But I did get done this morning, and load of laundry. It wasn't a full load. But more then half. Tomorrow we're going to dance show, Alice Through the New Dimension. Two of my granddaughter will be in it.

The reason I did a load laundry. I didn't want to be push up against the wall. So no laundry this weekend.


Murphy and I went to the senior center for lunch. They served Cabbage rolls with lamb, mix veggies which consist of carrots, broccoli, sweet peppers, and mushrooms. Mashed potatoes with gravy. And for fruit some sliced apples. Then they had the food give away. I'm hoping later on they will have Cherries. The other day I was in a store here and cherries was about $5.80 a pound. I doubt they will get done to .99¢ a pound. Like in the past.

The other places we stop was to pick up some prescriptions. Got gas, filled up my car. Gas here is $3.39 for regular. That's a gallon. Actual Murphy put in the full tank, I walked over across the parking lot, and went into the building. Set up appointment to have my car services. Which will be week from today.

I went to the library to pick up the book I ordered through inter-library loan. It should take about a week to read. Not sure what I will be reading next.

Not sure if I posted this art journal page before or not. But I have curious mind. And curious can easily go down the rabbit hole. I had chat gpt take a look at some art I did, and here is the REVIEW.



This morning Murphy and I went to Sandpoint, about a 30 minute drive. I had appoint with an surgeon and we set up date for my breast reduction. The date is September 9th. The reason that so far out is because. Murphy is having cataract surgery in August.

But before we went I fixed breakfast. We ate bacon, french toast, and there was a pancake left from the other day, and I dip it in egg batter and fried it like french toast.

We took a lunch with us. Tuna sandwich and blueberries. And we stopped at North Forty and got a few items. Still ran us $25.


Still waiting for our electric bill. Going to watercolor class, tomorrow (June 4th) Will eat the senior center there serving chef salad. It been ages and I mean ages since I had a chef salad.

Today Is Sunday, May 25, 2025: This Is What Happened.



Just finished the book, A MATTER OF CLASS, by MARY BALOGH. Last two books was under the genre of RENGENCY ROMANCE. But there also other genre that is connect to REGENCY. The last two of the books I enjoyed. And would consider looking into other books by Georgette Heyer and Mary Balogh. I don't see myself putting to much effect in finding these author books. I will get them out of my local library. I know our library has quite a few Georgette Heyer books. Not sure what the stats is on Mary Balogh.

I just start to read FRIDA KAHLO THE BRUSH OF ANGUISH. Our library has given me a few Frida Kahlo book. I can only guess why. She has be come quite the icon. Some time I would like to read a book on her husband Diego Rivera. That catches his inter being his make up. What made him tick.


Both hubby and I plan to go up into the mountains. We both slept in this morning. And got a slow start to the day. We got slow start. But the good thing is we got a few smaller project caught up or decent stab at some others things. Quiet pleased, and no reason why we can't take drive up in the mountains.





Last Friday evening I went to a new moon ritual down by the river. There was only three of us. We as pagan need to be careful and use common sense. Just like the LGBTQ+. In lot of ways the far right here is more scared. They think the gay community can groom or convert. The the pagan don't go out and proselytism. I find it just plain ass rude to go around and shove one's belief downs one mouth.

Today Is WORLD TAROT DAY.




Saturday morning I went to art insight, and we all did ugly birds.


As far as ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE it here. Now what we do with it is up to each of us. Like anything else we need and should set bounds on it. Like anything else in our life. It has an off and on switch of some type Just like my camera, lap top, phone, vacuum, dishwasher, television, coffee pot and or etc.

It one of those days I was clueless what I want to post. So I ask chatgpt this...Could you please ask me five question? That I can do a blog post on my blog.

Here is it basic reply...


Of course! Here are five thought-provoking questions you can use as prompts for your blog posts. Each one is designed to inspire reflection, storytelling, or exploration of an idea:


Now I'm not sure of this. It might be interesting.


What is a belief you used to hold strongly but have since changed your mind about—and why?

I don't know if I held any really hard belief. I learn over time my ideals, opinions, or thoughts. Would be what is was in style. Example...If the majority people thought let say a library should be painted blue. I would agree to keep the peace. I didn't or I was scared of not fitting in. Well once I was away from it. I was miserable. I learn one is happier if they was true to them self.


How has technology changed the way you live, work, or connect with others in the last five years? One thing I can say it hasn't made me a multi anything. Gee being sarcastic. It way for me to connect with others throughout the world. I use it as a way to learn and grow. I recently start using chat-gpt. Like any thing else, we all have to set our bounds.


What does “success” mean to you, and how has that definition evolved over time? I don't think there is such a thing of true success. As I said that. There no thing as true failure either.


If you could give your younger self one piece of advice, what would it be and why? Be true to yourself. If your not true to yourself there still will be unhappiness surrounding you.

This is interesting. Not sure when but I would do this again. Go head if you want you can use some of these question or all of them.

Today Is Wednesday. May 21, 2025: This Is What Happened.




I decided to play WORDLESS WEDNESDAY
I like sardines. When I was young, every so often we’d have sardines and cheese—sandwiched between two saltine crackers. The other day, I got some in olive oil and really liked them.

Let’s see what I’ve been doing. I’ve been out mowing the lawn, but the mower ran out of gas, so I’m waiting until I can finish.
I’ve also done other household chores around the place.

On Monday, I went to the library and looked into getting Windows 11 installed. My current system won’t take it. I don’t quite understand why—and honestly, I don’t have much desire to figure it out. So I’ve started looking around for another laptop.
Windows 10 support will end on October 14, 2025, which means updates and services will stop. This laptop is running fine for now, so I’m thinking of seriously shopping for a new one sometime between July and September.
One of the main reasons I went to the library was to see why my laptop isn’t reading a thumb drive I have.

In the world of creativity, I went to my first live drawing session last Sunday. I didn’t quite finish the page I was working on. I also worked on some collage papers. I learned that photo paper doesn’t work well on Gel Plates—it sticks too much, tears, and leaves indentations. I didn’t know that at first, but later found out you're not supposed to use photo paper on Gel Plates. Still, it gave the plate a bit of its own personality, in a way.

No A.I today. Just quick catch up. Let see what is going on. Paid bills, it one of those things. Still have the natural gas bill come in. That usually toward end of the month. We had some medical bills. I didn't pay them in full. 75% I paid on them. Will pay the rest of them next month.

Still going to the senior center, usually on Tuesday and Friday. But I had lunch there today. I have a watercolor class on the first and third Wednesday of the month. We did dogs! I did yellow lab. Haven't taken a picture yet. Oh, let me get back to senior center. We had stuff peppers with lamb. This morning I went and drew with Ban over at Lore Coffee. She did some lilac, and I did a telegraph machine.


I went to our local book store, BONNERS BOOKS. The locals still call it “Johns” I ordered for friend Quenella. THE ENCHANTED APRIL.


Took a box to one the thrift store.

Today Is Tuesday, May 6 2025: This Is What Happened.

 I was reading a  comment that PENGUIN left. About one can tell about a person on what books they have in there bookshelf. So I let Chatgpt do it thing. But before move on. Since the chatgpt is little on long side. I will do regular posting on Thursday. Plus I there is a little of tarot.

 

You said:
It is said one can tell a person. By what is in there book shelf. Is this true?
ChatGPT said:

There's a lot of truth to that idea. A person’s bookshelf can reflect:

  • Interests and passionsScience fiction, history, poetry, cookbooks: each points to different loves.

  • Beliefs and valuesPolitical theory, religion, philosophy often show how someone thinks or what they wrestle with.

  • AspirationsSelf-help, business, or academic books might reflect goals or ambitions.

  • PersonalityAn eclectic shelf might suggest curiosity; a focused one might suggest deep expertise or obsession.

  • SentimentalityBooks from childhood, gifts, or worn favorites can hint at emotional ties.

That said, it’s not foolproof. Some people collect books to impress, decorate, or because they were gifts. Others might love to read but use a library, e-books, or audiobooks instead.

Do you think your own bookshelf says something about you?

You said:
Ok, here is list of books. On the very top is. Art Journal and Photo Journal. first shelf The Doyle Diary, Anne Frank, the diary of young girl. Wreak this journal, Letters of Frida Kahlo, The Country Diary of an Edwardian Lady, Maud The Illustrated Diary of Victorian Woman. And Frida Kahlo the brush of Anguish. Second self. Comic book of dark shadow 90240-502, Maus I and II, All Four books of the year in in cherrybrook. The Absolutely True Diary of a part time indian, Flower Fairies of the tree, Flower Fairies of the garden, Flower Fairies of the alphabet bet. The constitution of the United States. Bann Books, Idaho Noxious Weeds, Cameo Pocket Books, Audubon Rocks and Mineral, 3 dummy books...dieting, digital photography, tarot. Carrots loves tomatoes, Square foot gardening, Medicare and you 2025, Autobiography of Mark Twain Vol 1, Field Guide to Disease and pest, Marijuana outdoor growing guide, The living bible, Cass County Michigan by Grover, History of Boundary County Idaho Vol 1, Holly Bible King James New Version, Remarkable Diaries, and Life Application. B Bible. Bottom shelf Living Wicca, Angurapi by Magnis Rafinson, Book of Shadow, The ABC of handwriting analysis, Tarot of Bohemians, Llewellyn Sabbat Essentails, Irish Firesides, Smudging and blessings book, working with tarot, Hand writting Analysis-putting it to work for you, and also 2 oracle deck, 6 tarot deck, 2 cardology deck, Art therapy deck, 7 coloring books, 7 sewing books, and 4 printing books.
ChatGPT said:

Thanks for sharing that list—it paints a vivid and layered picture. Based on what’s on your bookshelf, here's what one might gather about you:


🧠 Curious and Deeply Reflective

  • You’re drawn to personal expression and introspection: journals (your own, Anne Frank’s, Frida Kahlo’s), diaries, art and photo journaling—all suggest someone who values self-exploration and emotional honesty.

  • Books like Maus, The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian, and banned book collections show you're not afraid to face difficult histories or controversial ideas.

🎨 Creative and Visually-Oriented

  • Your shelf holds visual storytelling and artistryFrida Kahlo, art therapy decks, coloring books, comic books, and even flower fairy books speak to someone with an eye for beauty and symbolism.

  • Tarot, oracle, and art decks, along with your printing and sewing books, reflect hands-on creativityyou like to make, not just think.

🌿 Connected to Nature and the Practical World

  • Gardening books, field guides, and even “Idaho Noxious Weeds” show a grounded, earthy side—someone who works with nature or at least values practical knowledge about it.

  • Books like Carrots Love Tomatoes and Square Foot Gardening show you care about how things grow—literally and metaphorically.

📖 Spiritually Open and Eclectic

  • You have Living Wicca, The Book of Shadows, The Tarot of the Bohemians, and the Bible—both traditional and new versions—plus smudging and blessing guides. That’s a spiritual spectrum.

  • It suggests you’re a seeker—exploring various belief systems to find meaning, not bound to one path.

📚 Historically and Regionally Rooted

  • Books like Cass County Michigan and History of Boundary County Idaho suggest a strong connection to place, heritage, or local history.

  • You appreciate the past—not just globally (Twain, Frida, diaries), but locally.

🎭 Sensitive and Empathetic

  • The emphasis on diaries, personal stories, and even handwriting analysis shows a desire to understand people deeplyfrom their stories to their writing.

  • You probably value authenticity, and are likely sensitive to emotion and nuance.


In Short:

You’re likely an emotionally intuitive, creatively driven, spiritually open, and intellectually curious person—someone who values storytelling, beauty, depth, and both the visible and invisible connections between things.

Would you say that resonates with you?

You said:
Very Much. Could you do three tarot cards that would reflect my personal books
ChatGPT said:

I’d be happy to do that. Drawing three tarot cards to symbolically reflect your bookshelf—and by extension, you—here’s a thematic pull based on the energy your collection gives off:


1. The High Priestess 🜁 (Inner Wisdom, Mystery, Spiritual Depth)

Your bookshelf is full of intuition, journaling, spiritual tools, and hidden knowledge. The High Priestess represents the seeker of inner truth, the guardian of esoteric wisdom. Like her, you honor both what is seen and unseen—balancing research, ritual, memory, and myth.
Books mirrored: Book of Shadows, Frida’s letters, Living Wicca, handwriting analysis, tarot decks, the diaries.


2. The Empress(Creativity, Nature, Nurture)

The Empress channels your earthy, creative, life-loving side. She reflects your connection to nature (gardening guides, wildflowers, rocks), creativity (sewing, coloring, printing, art therapy), and your appreciation for beauty and emotional richness.
Books mirrored: Flower Fairies, gardening books, art and photo journals, art therapy decks, Carrots Love Tomatoes.


3. The Hermit 🜃 (Solitude, Study, Illumination)

The Hermit represents your thoughtful, reflective side—the part of you who reads banned books, studies history, and seeks meaning in silence. This card values personal truth found away from the crowd.
Books mirrored: Autobiography of Mark Twain, diaries, banned books, The Constitution, Cass County history, and your deep nonfiction.


Together, these three cards suggest someone who moves between inner worlds (High Priestess), the natural and creative world (Empress), and thoughtful solitude (Hermit)—just like your books do.
