Hello, friends. Happy Wednesday! I had this past Monday off for Juneteenth. I didn’t do a darn thing but it was nice to have it off. It gave me time to finish my book club read, Horse. We meet tonight to discuss it over wood fired pizzas and wine.
My reading has been going a lot better. I am a good ways into The Bird Hotel and loving it. Next up is one of those classics I selected. Not sure yet which one. And the photo above has nothing to do with anything except every single day I wonder how many more houses they will build in our neighborhood. I mean, the traffic is so bad now. If I walk down to the end of my street, this is what I see.
My husband flew to Seattle to spend Father’s Day weekend with my son. It was a great trip for him. He doesn’t get to take time off too often so it was a nice break and they managed to fit a ball game in too. Root Beer was quite the host! She is the sweetest cat. I was pretty busy anyway. I attended two performances for our students and Sunday’s student ministry activities completely wore me out! It’s so fun but man, I napped like I never napped before once I got home.
When my friend came over the other night, we started the new season of Black Mirror. Not bad but so far, not too crazy. Not sure if I’ll finish the season out. It’s short but it isn’t grabbing me so far.
That’s all I have. No big plans for the weekend except a dental cleaning. Exciting!
Book Chatter 
Sounds like you were busy even though you had the house to yourself and otter pup. I’m glad your son and husband got to spend time together. 🙂
My book group is reading Horse later this year. Did your book group enjoy it? Glad your husband got to get away to Seattle. Fun to see the Mariners play, too, I’ll bet! Hope the weather was nice. We were suprised to get snow while in our campground north of Banff, and again when we got to Jasper. The sun is shining today, and it looks to be dry for the next few days.
The weather was rainy in Seattle but about the same temp as here. They said it was nice.
My club meets tonight to discuss Horse. I liked it, but felt like there was a lot of story to tell and I just preferred the horse bits the most.
I’m reading The Bird Hotel as well and, although a bit unsure initially, I am enjoying it as well.
I am comparing it a lot to her home in Guatemala. She has shared so much of that home that I feel right at home reading her new one.
I am so glad your husband got to take a break and visit your son. With Covid this week all I’ve done is binge watch the Bosch series; my brain hasn’t been able to do much else.
That’s a lot of houses, argh. I sympathize. Glad you’re reading mojo is back . I’m trying to find mine constantly. it comes & goes.
