April Reading Roundup
It’s a good thing that I keep a log of the books I read, because I can’t remember the beginning of April. Anyway, I did some reading. A lot of it was rough going in the content sense, which maybe wasn’t great right now? I don’t know. Here’s a roundup.

Valentine’s Day? More like Votingtime Day!
I’ve been busy this week working to register people to vote, so I’m going to go ahead and continue that for a hot second here: are you registered to vote?
Theme of the Week: The Village
No, not the M. Night Shyamalan movie. Or the People. I’m thinking about the concept of a village. It’s the one that people mean when they use the phrase, “It takes a village to raise a child.” I touched on a facet of this concept a while back in my post on isolation, but I still have some thoughts left.
Women in Music: Nannette Streicher
Let’s take a look at one of the many invisible women behind the music: Nannette Streicher.

Welcome to the highly anticipated fourth (and last) installment of my hit series on Taking Care of Your Cat. We’ve already covered Food, Litter, and of course Hygge, so last up is the (I guess other) big H: Cat Health.
