The next day was fun with red, white, and blue bunch a balloons. That face is one of mischief because he soaked the camera man(mom) every chance he got.

More fun with sparklers

I haven’t talked books in a while. Mikey is still reading and loving the Dune series of books. He just finished God Emperor of Dune which is #4 in the 6 book series.

I bought him Heretics of Dune the #5 book in the series for Father’s day and he is just a few pages away from finishing it.

I’m trying to read fiction again!! I started this book over the weekend and so far I like it. It came highly recommended by my mom AND dad who both read this book a few months ago. My mom even put a note in it asking for it back which means she thinks it’s really really good and worth keeping.

When I say I’m trying to read fiction again, I get into these certain “moods” shall I say where I simply can’t get into reading no matter how much I love it. It’s as if I can’t concentrate on the book or it won’t hold my interest. It’s really frustrating to me when this happens and one of the reasons why I have at least 100 books on my bookshelf from my mom that I haven’t read yet.

I mentioned this book back in February or March. This is non fiction/self help and what I have been reading before bed every night off and on again for the past few months.

Let’s talk tv! I haven’t done this for a while either. 2 of my favorite shows came back on 2 weeks ago- No Demo Reno on HGTV and Southern Charm on Bravo. No Demo Reno gives me so many ideas and inspiration to do my own house. Like every time I watch it I want to remodel my kitchen and paint all my cabinets. I’ll let you know if I ever actually do it.

That’s it for this fantastic week!

Hope you have a great week ahead!
