Chrissyreadit I love this!!! I am so disturbed by the areas with book banning and love that the Brooklyn library is offering digital access nationwide to teens and kids to combat book bans. 4w

1. Waterfall in my favorite spot in Botanic Garden.
2. Just back from Kopp‘s in Milwaukee. Amazing birthday cake ice cream flavor with actual pieces of yellow cake in it!
3. We think we finally got rid of the family of raccoons that were living under the deck.
4. Husband had two biopsies of strange growths on his skin, turned out ok.
5. Planning annual trip to Seattle to visit my son, going overnite to Leavenworth.

AmyG Glad your husband is ok. 😬 And racoons….we had a mom give birth in our attic. Be happy they are under the deck. And gone! 1mo
peaKnit Yay! We are headed to Brookfield shortly for the same! Glad your husband‘s biopsies were okay! 1mo
Lesliereadsalot @AmyG Wow! In the attic? Sounds like a nightmare. Thanks for your kind thought. 1mo

Lesliereadsalot @peaKnit two thanks: one for the kind thought and one for the ice cream recommendation. Enjoy your big scoop! PS I would‘ve had a cone but I had a hamburger too. 1mo
peaKnit Oh yum, their hamburgers are so good but also super sized! Definitely might get in the way of dessert :) 1mo
MemoirsForMe Happy to hear your husband is well! I used to live in Milwaukee. How did I not know about Kopp‘s? 😋 1mo

I introduced my kids (teen and adult) to Utah Phillips today, this album and Fellow Workers. I forgot how much I love his storytelling. https://open.spotify.com/album/2IqT02ArTZ3Pd3PH9LQ2nU?si=xeNMakznTEuZich4ErldfQ

** I LOVE This Land by Gary Clark Jr. When I sing it in my head I replace the big N with Brother. Cause I am white.

I think I finally have my July #bookspin list completed. I can‘t wait to see the bingo board. I‘m hoping to have extra reading time with a 3-day weekend and at least one day off work for a doctor appointment, because there‘s a lot on here that I really want to read.

This summer is absolute chaos in my household. Three kids moving in August (one across town into his first house, one to NYC post college graduation, & one into a college dorm), college orientation, dorm shopping, and helping out with dog sitting because my daughter is triple booked. Here‘s hoping I have time to actually read and that my reading is able to help me through! 😵‍💫🫠❤️📚

#bookspin @TheAromaofBooks

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! Although it sounds like you'll be lucky to find time to breathe, much less read! 😂 1mo
Elizabeth2 @TheAromaofBooks literally taking it one day at a time at this point. If I think too far ahead I get stressed out and things are constantly changing so what‘s the point?! 😂 1mo
