Monday Rambles

- Why do people water their sidewalks? Like what a waste.  In the neighborhoods I've been in lately the owners are basically watering the sidewalk and the yard.  Also, WHO CARES SO MUCH ABOUT A LAWN THEY WATER IT??? This is just one of the many reasons I probably cannot live in a neighborhood.

- Why can I not focus on reading lately? I was kicking butt at the start of this year and the last 2 months I can barely get through a book. I keep finding books I want to read though! And I want to be reading the books I've read too.  Why brain, why?

books read in May

- We've been watching old movies lately and trying to incorporate kid friendly movies for the kiddo too.  We've seen Stagecoach, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Hugo, and a few more old westerns.

- What is the appeal of unicorns? Why is my child obsessed?

- I wish campfires did not attach their smoky smell to your hair.  Like I just bathed and now I reek again.  So annoying.

- Lemon in water really is magical.  I can drink so much more water and drink it quicker than if it's just plain.  Though, I will drink warm plain water just as easy as cold flavored.

New books I added to my list after my library visit today ---

Sing Unburied Sing by Jesmyn  Ward
