Oh yikes, this once-in-two-week blogging routine better not be a habit. I hope it's just an indication of how busy July can get with planning for a birthday and doing different summer things. Life The girl had her birthday party today with friends from school and she had a fun day! It was nice seeing the kids have fun outside of school and take over the bouncy event place like they knew every corner of it. I was grateful for everyone who were brave enough to come to a party despite recent rises in case count. Thankfully most or all of us were vaccinated so that made the decision-making easier.

I am currently reading
Snow

Harry
Potter and the Goblet of Fire by J.K. Rowling: I am halfway through this book now and I'm hoping this will get me out of my reading funk!
The

One Amazing Thing by Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni: This is Chitra's first book that I am reading, and I'm finding her writing style quite engaging. So far, this book is going well, not amazing, but definitely interesting.
