   3:09PM Just got back from the library with my Mom, we came home with some books, (of course). Now I'm just chilling. Had kind of a rough day at work today but luckily I don't have to work tomorrow because it's my day off. Hope everybody has a happy 4th of July!

      2.54pmTrying to ignore my three year olds cartoons on the TV after spending the last hour reading with him. I'll be logging off shortly in a vain hope to finish the book I am reading! It's Deliverance and I have been thoroughly hooked by this trilogy!

 6:55 pm For some reason I've been on a 7 month reading slump. I was about to call it a year but the burning passion to read is still there. Books started this year: 6 Books completed: 0 What is up with that?

Janelle you need to get your reading mojo back! That sounds awful.
Do you want to buddy read Shadow of Night next month. I want to finish this series.
 Mary, I want to but I am afraid I will start and stop. That's why I haven't said anything about it. Let me see if I can get my MOJO back this month. I'm going to start small. Sookie Stackhouse saved me before so, maybe I need to return to her. :-)

     Sounds good! Just let me know when you are ready. I will have to try Sookie Stackhouse. Never read that series yet.

     It's 10:56 pm and took a break from reading to check my emails; then stopped here. On vacation for two months so I have a lot of reading to catch up to.

      8:13AM Hey guys! I have been super busy with family here. We have been having so much fun though and that is what makes it all worthwhile. Today we are heading to the Fort Worth Stockyards. Lots of great things to do there. Will try and check in more often than I have been.

   at my desk. So deep. Listening to Harry Potter ASMR on Youtube. Seriously, check it out. So calming. Working a long day today due to the 4th. I usually work 4 days a week (M-Th) but this week I'm working (T-Fri). Usually Thursdays are my short days, but not today. Tomorrow, however, will be my short day. Hope this day flies by and I'm not tired..

      7:00PM Taking a lot of extra time with my family this evening because they will be leaving me in the morning. :( I will miss them so much and a year is a long time to be apart.
    
  
  
   7:20 AM Yesterday was a really hard day for my Mom and I, our cat Ernie, who we've had for 12 years had to be put to sleep, he was very sick. He was diabetic and it was just starting to get more worse each day, he wasn't going to the bathroom, he'd hiding under things and the vet said his kidneys were failing and it would have only been a matter of time, so we made a very hard decision. He was a good cat and we're really gonna miss him. But as hard as it was, he's in a better place now and he's not in pain anymore.

      Corey, you are in my thoughts and prayers. We lost our Kitty, Bandit about 3 years ago. It is so hard when you lose a pet.
    
  
  
   4:42 PM. Getting out of work a bit later than I had planned. Busy day...BUT, I am on my way to pick up my baby girl!

      11:09PM Sitting here with End of Watch in front of me, checking Good Reads and munching on some snacks. They are called Harvest Snaps, snap pea crisps. The flavor is Wasabi Ranch. Very low in carbs and so tasty. The black pepper ones are good too. YUM!
Mary I love camping and have not been for many many years! Enjoy yourself!

 12:22 AM Thanks Janie! I am really enjoying myself. We are camping the whole weekend. Enjoy End of Watch, it is so good! Those snacks sound so good! I need to see if we have that here. I am munching on potato chips, so fatting, but love the salty taste.

 Oh Corey, I'm so sorry to hear about Ernie :( :( :( That is just so sad, and I know what an empty place he will leave in your hearts :( It is so hard to make that tough call but it just shows how much you both loved him that you didn't want to let him suffer. Sending you both love and hugs xx

Funny that you said that about ghost stories.. I got up and walked to the restrooms and I was reading a scary book before that, and when I was walking back to the campsight my husband and stepson jumped out at me when I was walking back. It scared me to death. They thought it was funny.
Shell hope you can get out a weekend soon, so much fun.

Sorry Mary I had to laugh at that. I could only imagine, I guess it was a good thing they did it after you went to the bathroom.

 9.48AM Ahhhh finally it's Friday! It's going to be a busy weekend though as we are going on a road trip to visit one of my oldest and dearest friends. It has been so stormy this week with lots of flooding, but the sun is out today so I hope that continues for our drive.

I'm crossing my fingers that some arrive for me on Monday :D
        
      8:34PM Had a pretty busy day today, but enjoyed it fully. Started out with my 6 year old grandson's football game. Oh my goodness they played so well and Aeverie got the last score of the game with a 40 yard TD, and the first time he got to carry the ball, he usually plays center. Then went to Daughters House and celebrated Aeverie's victory today with a very yummy cook out. Came home and took a walk to get my steps in and then threw the football around with my son, ended my day to get the last thousand steps I needed and then got my shower, now have my coffee and I am ready to read read read. Hope everyone had great days today!
