Grocery Shopping

Gotta do it.

Sounds easy, I know, but first I have to think up things to eat, and I totally suck at that. I waffle between trying really hard to get a list together before I leave and deciding to just wing it once I get there thinking that maybe looking at food will make it appealing. Which never works.

I figured out we whities have a 2 hour swim limit at the pool or else we burn. And we surely reapply sunscreen at every adult swim break, but after two hours we burn anyway. I wish we could stay at the pool all day, though. Cuz that is called summertime fun.

My nails have gotten long so typing is hard. I keep having to correct stuff. Why do I not clip them? Besides the hygiene issue from last post, it is because I'm lazy. As Claire told Liz yesterday, "Mom's lazing around in her bed." Yep I was. And I plan on doing it again today. So there.

I read some cute books this week. "Our Only May Amelia" and "The Trouble with May Amelia" by Jennifer L. Holm. They are juvenile literature and historical fiction. I give them both thumbs up. If you like "Moon Over Manifest" and "The Evolution of Calpurnia Tate," these are for you.

Emily and I recommend, for your reading pleasure, A Long Way from Chicago and A Year Down Yonder, both by Richard Peck and available at your public library.

That is so funny. I was also going to recommend the Richard Peck books, based on your recommendations. Now I'll just shutup and read the Holm books.
