RADIOLAB- THE OTHER LATIF

This miniseries Radiolab produced is a must listen. It explores a lot of issues, but it is all centred around a man trapped at Guantanamo Bay, freed by Obama, but then trapped by change of administration. They dive into his life before the war how he was a young man trying to find his way in the world. I highly recommend this miniseries. 

What I have reading... 

VERNON SUBUTEX 1

I picked up this book on a whim at one of my fav book shops, TYPE, in Toronto. Book 1 of this trilogy shows the downward spiral of Vernon, an infamous record shop owner in Paris. With changes in the industry due to the internet, he loses his shop and home and you tag along as he bounces from friend to friend to try and avoid homelessness.

THE AMERICANS

I had watched the first season years ago, so I wanted to pick up and finish the series. It is great at times, but I also find it repetitive, a lot of anxiety because they are constantly in peril of being found out that they are spies. I don’t find there are enough lull moments that you can breathe and enjoy learning about the characters. 

What I have been doing...

QUARANTINE

Like everyone else, the beau and I have been self-isolating. We have been working from home and trying to keep up our “routine” just at home. I have been doing yoga, working during the day and trying to unplug in the evenings. Also, been taking this time to clean every inch of our house!

THREADED LAUNCHED

THREADED has been my baby for months now and when we all started isolating, it was a struggle to decide whether to move forward with the launch. Many thanks to the lovely business women who are mentors and sounding boards for me and helped me decide to move forward with this beautiful project.
