    I follow this YouTuber and look forward to reading this book in the fall, because here’s how it’ll go:

    I’ll add this book to my Amazon wish list, but under a specific small list of “2023 $0-$30 Wish List” because I haven’t set up all the 2024 lists yet and will probably do it in March.

    So I’ll forget to buy the book off that list until then when I harness some hyper focus or more likely procrastinating some task and I reorganize my lists and buy it then for that sweet retail therapy dopamine hit.

    Then it’ll arrive in the mail, but with all those other retail therapy purchases so it might not even get the box opened because I know it’s a book but I got my dopamine hit just by receiving it “it’s here!” and I have other packages to open more immediate and stack on the table.

    Then sometime in the summer I will clean the table because I’m begrudgingly having people over, and open the package and go “oh, yeah! This book I forgot about!!!” and go off the surge of discovering a thing. And put it on my bookshelf finally.

    I’ll have a busy summer and forget to read it until I am rounding up books as the kids go back to school in the fall, and I will go “yes! I will read this now so that it might help with getting organized so I can help the kids this school year!” and I will sit and read the whole thing instead of getting the needed supplies for the kids.

    So I’ll give a book review then. 😆 Now I am off to watch some of her videos that I saved to my 2023Summer! YouTube playlist.
