Hello there! Happy July and welcome to Anne in Residence's monthly link-up:
Traveling
In August, we are planning a trip to Quebec City! I have never been, but it has a very European feel to it. Plus, we can drive there, and it takes a little over 6 hours!
Missing or Not!
I finished school on Friday, June 24th! This means that I am finally on vacation, and I have time to do fun activities! Consequently, I bought a games subscription to the New York Times for $5 a month. I am not sure that I will have time to do the games after I go back to school in September, but the games are a fun daily diversion. I'm amazingly loving the Tiles Game in which you need to keep matching at least one element of each tile to another:
Enjoying
What's not to enjoy about the summer? Our weather has been in the 70's and low 80's! There is usually a breeze. I get to go in my pool and do my water aerobics. Plus, I get to read a lot! I just finished this book:
In this book, three women who live in 3 different time periods, struggle with similar situations. This book was a Good Morning America Book Club selection. If you're looking for new book recommendations, head to their site and pick out your next book!
Realizing
I just picked a new bathing suit top on Amazon Smile. I just realized that all my old ones are stretched out. Check it out:
A few things I love about this:
1. It covers my chest.
2. The geometric and colorful pattern.
3. Tummy control.
Did you know that if you shop on Amazon Smile, a small portion of your purchase goes to a charity of your choice? I donate my percentage to a local pet shelter, PAWS of Wakefield.
Hoping
I am hoping that author Ewa Erdman who visited our school in June, can sell lots of copies of her book:
The author adopted a three legged pitbull who became a therapy dog for amputees and other rehab patients. In addition, Ewa donates all proceeds to animal shelters!
Here is a picture of Ewa and me when she visited our school:
As always, I appreciate that you visited my blog today! Please let me know if you have any book recommendations or ideas for what to do in Quebec City.
