![CW: miscarriages, infertility and shipwrecks
The paperback for ‘Till All the Seas Run Dry comes out Tuesday so here is my favorite quote to remind you Eliza MacArthur is doing a pre-sale giveaway and I loved this book!
Robbie has “Hold Fast” tattooed on his knuckles and he’s talking to Callum about how sailors tattooed their knuckles to help them hold on to the ship during storms and whatnot and Callum says
“How fortunate that wasnae a practice when I was at sea. Had I held onto the ship I would have been killed or gone down with it and drowned. Sometimes ‘tis better to jump. The trick is to know the difference”
This quote resonated with me on a bone deep level. We struggled through miscarriages and infertility for years and found a way to stay curious about how far we should go to try to have a baby when I was emotionally and physically exhausted while the world screamed “Never give up!”.
“Sometimes ‘tis better to jump. The trick is to know the difference” YES!!! Here’s to being open to changing our minds! I might need this on a t-shirt! Thank you, @elizamacarthurwrites !!!
I hope you have the Saturday you need, Crew! It’s a good day to contact someone about a ceasefire. I love you!!!

1. It turns out I didn’t need to be worried that all the funny parts were in the previews.
2. Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy had near perfect comedic timing and the physical humor was hilarious. At one point I was laughing so hard I couldn’t breathe.
3. Marlon Wayans (Agent Levy) was cute and charming and in fact, my only complaint about the movie was that they could have developed the Agent Levy storyline a bit more. Maybe we’ll get lucky and there will be a sequel.
4. …and oh yes, at one point during the movie, Sandra was wearing a fair isle sweater and Melissa had a classic cardigan on that any knitter would envy. I loved it!
Melissa McCarthy was wearing a cardigan similar to this one, but I believe it was gray.
Sandra Bullock was wearing a sweater similar to this one, but I don't recall any reindeer.
