R is for Reading

March 6, 2023 by styledbykdg

Last year I realized that I was decompressing and relaxing by streaming tv shows. A lot of tv shows. But it wasn’t fulfilling. I would be mid-show and think, I should be reading and in fact, I want to be reading. So I started to consciously read. To do that, I first picked a book that was easy to get in to, if not necessarily cerebral. Then, I pre-selected a set of books that I would look forward to reading […]

How Illuminating

October 17, 2014 by styledbykdg

Friday Afternoon Delight

July 12, 2013 by styledbykdg

I am not sure whether I should share this with you but here goes…. I am addicted to Netflix’s new original series Orange is the New Black. I watch a lot of Hulu Plus and Netflix on my iPad while I putter around the house. It is so much more productive then plopping down in front of the television. We ended up putting our big flat screen in the basement rec room and cancelled our cable. Now we watch movies […]
