Summer Reading Brain

July 8, 2025July 8, 2025 quiteayarnblog11 Comments

Every summer I come down with a condition I like to think of as Summer Reading Brain. Summer Reading Brain does not want to think serious thoughts or learn things.

A lot more fiction last month than I typically read, so that was different! Part of that is because DH and I started listening… Continue reading May Reading Stats

Busy Weekend

We took advantage of the long weekend and some beautiful weather to get a few projects done around the house. First, a long awaited redo of our entry landing floor.
