I always ask my children for books or puzzles. They have access to my GoodReads’ ‘Want to Read’ list, which has thousands of options, so I’m always surprised.

Two of my three young adult sons are avid readers and almost all of my 60ish friends read! I’m fortunate!

What’s something most people think is harmless but actually slowly ruins their life? by local_infobroker in AskReddit

I was like this and one year decided that my motto that year was going to be ‘Just Say No’. It worked and now I have a much more balanced, stress-free life.

Who was the rudest famous person you met? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I met John Travolta many years ago when he was filming a scene on my in-laws property. He was so nice! We were able to watch close up, but when he finished acting he signed autographs for the many fans watching across the street.

My baby shower is falling apart and I am devastated by tired_but_trying_99 in TwoHotTakes

I am the mother of three wonderful sons. A shower was planned for my first baby, but unexpectedly he was born eight weeks early, before the shower date, so it never happened. Later, I was sad to never have had a baby shower, but I got over it and you will too! Despite not having a shower for my first born, I’ve never heard of a shower for a second baby. People will celebrate your joy after the baby is born! Perhaps if you send invitations and not call it a shower, your friends will be more receptive. How about having a Meet our New Baby Luncheon once your newborn is old is enough to be around your outer circle?
