2026 is set to bring us some good news, and a good amount of progress in the sciences and arts--this does look promising, though I will remain cautiously cynical as ever.
My first bird this year is the scrub jay! I loved last year's hermit thrush, but am super glad to leave behind its theme of resiliency; not sure how much more of 2025's inanity we can withstand!
the Knight of Swords card represents conflict or defense or even war, but it can also mean skill or bravery. Another interpretation: a new player is entering the game. It's just a one-card reading, so without additional cards to provide context there's not a lot more I can say, but for sure this year has been full of conflicts. Stay brave (when you feel you can do so) and keep your wits about you -- I'm sending hopes for good changes to everyone out there who is struggling.
Hi Tracey! I am your partner in the LLU: Happy Library Week (profile comment)🤓📚🎉swap! I love our library in Waterloo, IL - the staff is so nice and always helpful! I can find all the books, magazines, and audiobooks I want or can order them on-line for pick up! Our library has several book clubs with two being for adults and the others for youngsters who enjoy reading, wish that would have been around when I was a kid! Also they have baking pans, a microscope, large lawn game items, and other stuff that patrons can borrow for hobbies/family time! I just love that our library does so much to being fun to all ages! All the best! Hugs and Happy Swapping! ;)
Hi Tracey! Thank you so much for the drawings, zine, ribbon, and extra goodies. All arrived in a beautifully decorated envelope. I absolutely LOVE it all. So happy to do this trade with you and I hope we swap again!
Got your zeens for the Zeens Tag and they are fantastic. I love the cute little pandemic Spoon zine and all the tiny photos inside. Did you draw the Gollum cartoons? You are talented. I also really like the Nancy Rourke bookmark and the very Canadiana (although it comes from California) envelope.
Thanks so much for the angel in the LLU swap! I loved the Earth Day card you made, and was really excited by the bonus drawings - both the "Wheel of Fortune" card and French bulldog! :)

in case the year hasn't been so great for you lately, this hermit thrush says: hang in there!
