it’s hot
One lesson we learned this weekend is check to make sure the window A/C works when it’s 75 degrees out because if we don’t, as soon as it hits 90+ degrees outside it will not work. We’ve been without A/C the last several days and it’s been over 90 degrees since Friday. To say we’re melting is a bit of an understatement. Needless to say, the idea of picking up knitting needles makes me feel dizzy. It’s too hot even to look at my knitting. So I’ve been reading a lot. When I find a book that is so engrossing that I’m willing to loose sleep over, I feel I need to share it. Sunday night, I started Prep by Curtis Sittenfeld. It’s so great! It’s about this girl, Lee, who is at a boarding high school in Massachusetts and follows her through all four years of high school. I always love coming-of-age stories and I think this one’s going to be remembered, I really hope it is. I’ve been telling everyone I know about it. All of the librarians and circ staff know about it because the library literally can’t keep the five copies we have on the shelves. If you’re looking for a good summer read, I highly recommend you check out Prep.
Sunday we went to Bryan’s sister’s house, I have lots of cute photos of our niece, Paige, and will post some of them later along with a bit more of a description of the trip.
Back to reading and trying to stay cool.
