A Quiet Holiday Weekend
After weeks of coughing and wheezing, I’m finally feeling 99% “normal” again!
Since Shane and I have both been under the weather, we opted for a quiet holiday weekend rather than leaving the house to celebrate Independence Day. We made pulled pork sandwiches for dinner, then enjoyed the neighborhood fireworks from our windows.
While I was healing, I finished watching the TV series Person of Interest on Prime Video. A lot of shows have series finales that make you want to cringe for the actors. Person of Interest nailed their finale. If you like sci-fi, I highly recommend the show. It was both unexpected and entertaining.
Speaking of sci-fi… Sci-Fi Book Pod, the hobby project co-hosted by my husband and me, has successfully launched on Substack.
When Alesia Galati shared that Substack now acts like a podcast aggregator, I immediately set it up and redirected our official URL. Since it’s a hobby podcast, I’ve been looking for a “free” podcast page for the show. Substack works like a charm!
Does this mean I have to actually engage with Substack? Maybe?
I have such limited bandwidth for social media. That’s why I’m looking forward to Kelsey Green‘s Practical Digital Minimalism workshop later this week.
And oh eh, my guest appearance on The Passion to Profit Podcast hosted by LuAnn Buechler aired a few days ago. You can watch our conversation about gratitude as a business strategy on YouTube and all the podcast players.

If you are a frequent reader, then you know I’ve been rebuilding my podcast archive for a couple of years now, after my original blog, momgeek.com, was hacked. Thus, the older podcast episode recaps (ya know, the titles that start with numbers).
Looking forward
