It’s been so dry lately every time I walk most everything looks the same. Lucky for me I usually pass by a cat or a deer to keep things interesting.
I’m still listening to the short stories in Amor Towles’ Table for Two. Love me some short stories.

I have been so thrown off this week. I keep mixing up my days and I have constantly had to remind myself where I’m supposed to be. And is that scratch in my throat allergies or the start of some dread disease? Ah, it must be September.
Quote of the week:
“He’s said nothing. He’s just said, ‘The world works pretty well as is for me.’”
reading with a kitty
Kindle - Katrina by Gary Rivlin - This isn’t an easy book to read, but it’s very informative.
Audiobook - Table For Two by Amor Towles - Short stories are great for my short attention span this week. I’m enjoying this collection.
Paper Book - Great Big Beautiful Life by Emily Henry - Still working on this, but at 400 pages it’s taking me a while to get through.

I’m slowly getting used to the new schedule around here, but glad for the long weekend. Here’s hoping we can catch our breath a bit. I have three books picked out for the long weekend. Let’s see if I can make it happen.

Kindle - The View From Lake Como by Adriana Trigiani - Almost done with this one. A great end of summer read.
Audiobook - There’s Always This Year by Hanif Abdurraquib - I got mixed up and thought this was a different book when I downloaded it. Now that I’ve adjusted though I’m enjoying it.
Paper Book - Great Big Beautiful Life by Emily Henry - Emily Henry is a summer must read for me.

There was a lot going on this week, and it just flew by. Both kids had orientation this week on top of sports practices and scrimmages. I work in DC so that’s been interesting. There are painters at the house. And the weather is weird due to Erin. I have liked my books, but not loved anything. I’m not sure if that’s my mood or the books I’ve been picking.

hi there
Kindle - The View From Lake Como by Adriana Trigiani - I love Trigiani’s books, and am looking forward to starting this tonight.
Audiobook - The Snow Leopard by Peter Matthiessen - I started this book on Kindle but was having trouble getting through it. So far it’s going better on audio.
Paper Book - Track of the Cat by Nevada Barr - I’m about halfway through this one and enjoying it. I’m excited to find a new series to read.
