It’s hard to believe it’s summer again! Another school year, done. The kids are another year older and wiser, or so they say. It’s amazing how busy your kids can keep you during the school months with their activities and such. But now, the glorious month of June is upon us and that means SUMMER VACATION. Sleeping in, staying up late, going to the pool and nothing but fun. I love summer!

My first project every summer, involves a major decision- what book should I read first? It seems like a little thing, but it’s not. So much goes into making the choice: Do I go with something new? Do I go with an old, reliable book I love? Do I sink into a series that will keep me busy for a month, or do I try and read as many single titles as possible? Decisions, decisions. So because I’m nosey, the question of the day becomes, What are YOU reading this summer by the pool or on vacation? I need suggestions, so send them my way.

In addition to relaxing, being lazy and playing with the kids, I’ve set some goals for myself to finish a few things I’ve started writing. Yes, I said that publicly, hoping I will now feel the need to follow through with it and not keep it to myself. If others know, I will feel more pressure to get it done and not let the time pass without progress. So there. I’ve said it- not let’s hope I actually do it

I hope everyone takes some time to relax this summer and spend time with those you love. The world is filled with craziness and stupid people. Don’t let them ruin your day. Be yourself, be original, be unique.

Happy Summer Reading! Keep the suggestions coming
