VeganCleopatra Challenges only work out for me when I just happen to read books that fit rather than forcing it. I don't tend to like books I feel forced to read at a given moment. 🤷‍♀️ So I definitely get it! 5y

1. Both! Grew up up north, spent 15 years in Texas.

3. Litsy, SerialReader, BookShout, Goodreads, Loyal Books—I don‘t like to read on my phone
4. Still vacationing. Took the kids back to Magic Mountain. Closed down the park riding Tatsu.
5. I‘m always too late for tagging.

1. Kenny Chesney concert tomorrow night in Denver! Renaissance festival on Sunday.
2. 4 and two partial :( :( :(
3. Winter to ski! We live in CoSprings, so it‘s mild by us or I can drive two hours to my happy place. Already bought my passes for this coming winter.
4. Kenny Chesney is good, third time seeing him. Brad Paisley is great (seen him twice). George Strait is a fave.
