mops and buckets

[justbolts]

My sister-in-law is staying over this week, so I mopped the entire living room and kitchen and heated vanilla oil in beeswax, and the whole place smells lovely. There's a lot of floor, so it was a chore, but the results were satisfying. Now we're all sitting around watching cooking shows.

Current reading list:

• Paladin's Grace by T. Kingfisher - a friend recommended this and I'm enjoying Stephen and his socks. Also, I really like the fantasy setting so far. Love that the Rat God is in charge of, essentially, public attorneys and social workers. I was a chapter in before I realized that T. Kingfisher is the penname of Ursala Vernon and I went oh yeah, that tracks.


• Misfit Mage, book 1 by Michael Taggart - this one has a really fun, exciting start that turns harrowing pretty quickly. I'm about midway and it's gotten a bit sleepy in terms of the action, though. Curious to see how it will pick up.
