On my bedside table: The Huntress by Kate Quinn; Fix Her Up by Tessa Bailey

On my TV: We finally moved on to Season 2 of Game of Thrones. I forgot just how many sex scenes are in the early seasons of this show. Goodness!

Listening to: Lots and lots of podcasts. I finally subscribed to The Indicator and Throughline from NPR. Both podcasts appeal to my interest in history. The episode of Throughline about Evangelicals in politics was very informative and yet very depressing.

On the menu:

• Monday - Grilled Cheese Day. The adults are probably going to have Honey Peach White Cheddar.

• Tuesday - Green Chile Chicken Enchilada Soup; Tacos

• Wednesday - Sesame Chicken

• Thursday - Leftovers

• Friday - Chicken Pot Pie

• Saturday - Pesto Stuffed Shells

• Sunday - Ranch Cheddar Chicken

On my to do list: Lots of house chores. Beyond that, I’m hoping to get to the DMV this week and we need to schedule Nick’s school final.

Happening this week: Arthur has summer camp at the zoo this week. He signed up for the desert week.

• Monday - Q at the zoo, Sonic lunch?, grocery shopping

• Tuesday - Ice cream stop, Alex Yu-Gi-Oh, Me book club

• Wednesday - Q at the zoo, Alex Yu-Gi-Oh

• Thursday - Mini Golfing day

• Friday - Old Market, North O day with visit to General Crook House and Hollywood Candy

• Saturday - Card class day

• Sunday - Nothing so far, thank goodness!

What I am creating: Not much of anything. We’re having issues with our printer so I can’t work on the memory planner or Project Life pages. And I’m having a bit of creative deficiency when it comes to making cards. Part of the problem may be the temperature in the office (where my craft supplies are). It’s so darn hot in there!

My simple pleasures: Cool breezes, reading

What I’m planning: The twins return to Indiana. We’re working on dates and what needs to be done for school next year.

Looking around the house: We need to do a big wipe-down, vacuum, sweep this week.

Looking forward to: Mini golfing at Pirate Putt. Arthur is obsessed. Just hoping to go with Q as he just causes issues right now. 2 year olds are not good at mini golfing.

From the camera: Chase and Rubble went for rides in the school buses.
