part 370 fresh flowers on a side table in the morning

[aphanon_meme]

Um, 2020 was a year that happened. 2021 is a new year that will happen! With flowers! And side tables! And mornings! And I didn't want to make some sort of 20s-themed name because look what happened in 2020, look what happened.

Enjoy part 370!

I don't know if this is the right thread, but, I get so sad that very few of my younger relatives like reading anymore. I miss being able to buy books as gifts, knowing they'd actually like them. One of my cousins is 20 and she kind of offhandedly said on the phone this summer, and I can't even remember how it got brought up, but she basically revealed (in a very soft, nice, not snarky way) that she hadn't read a single book I'd gotten her as a gift in 3 years but she was pretending like she liked them when she opened them because she didn't want to be rude.

Yeah it was like a gut punch, I felt really stupid for spending time/energy looking for books that I thought she liked, when she wasn't reading them (or any books) at all.

Not your fault she decided to act that way! You were operating under incorrect assumptions. I hope she picks up reading again someday, though, for her sake.
