I'm ready for another year of rooting! Once again, I'll commit to my "normal" 12 books and try to surpass that number. But, with a new puppy, an aging mother and life helping out at the farm, I will feel good just being able to read one book a month.

Good luck for this year's goals! I'm sure all 3 of the puppy, mum and farm will keep you very busy!

Sounds like a busy 2024 in store! I hope you get some quality time for yourself to read (perhaps with a snoozing puppy nearby to increase the cozy vibes).

Happy ROOTing!

Thank you everyone for the warm welcome back! I'm off to a very slow start. :( Our long time rice grower told me in January that he was retiring so I was a bit busy lining up a new rice grower and learning about farm leases. We have signed with a grower that has some distant family ties so it feels like we have come full circle. :)

The Other End of the Leash: Why We Do What We Do Around Dogs by Patricia B. McConnell, PhD
There were definitely some interesting insights in this book but for me it fell short in a few places by describing a behavior issue, why it occurs but does not describe how to deal with the behavior. I'm off to find a good trainer for my little "devil dog" who has stolen my heart. We will get through this period of puppyhood!

Transition Stress, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, and Opioid Use Among Post 9/11 Veterans by Dr Sarah E. Strand, PhD
I have known Sarah her entire life and when I was visiting her and her husband for Sarah's graduation, her copy of the dissertation was delivered. When I found out from Sarah that I could actually order my very own copy, I knew I had to purchase one. I notified Sarah when my copy arrived and of course she asked if I had read it. Well, that committed me to reading her work. Much of it went over my head but I understood enough to know that we need more people like Sarah helping out our troops. Well done Sarah, you make me very proud.
