June was a tough month for me. Two of these were books that Ben and I (but mostly Ben) read to Evan, so I’m not sure they even count. I only finished 2 audiobooks because I also listened to about 25 hours of employment law conference material. I live an exciting life.
In addition to these, I reviewed Lean In; Sight Reading; and If I Loved You, I Would Tell You This.
I also took part in Audiobook Week sharing: My Audiobook Year; How I Choose Audiobooks; Mid-Week Meme; Audiobook Tasks; and this year’s Audiobook Flowchart. And, as part of Audiobook Month, I posted an interview with Simon Vance.
Photographer:
So I’m officially adding this to my blog identity (tab to come soon). I’m a little nervous about it because I don’t really feel like a photographer – just someone who likes to take some pictures and pretends she knows a little about it. But, I also don’t really consider myself a very good runner. And I often don’t feel like a very good dancer and I’ve been taking class my whole life. So I’m just going for it.
This month I shared photos from the Dunedin Duck Derby and a father’s day photo. I am hoping to do more photo posts in the future.
Dancer
I haven’t danced since March. It’s pretty much the saddest thing ever. When Ben gets back from Vermont, I need to make time to take a class.
But I am watching So You Think You Can Dance again. Any favorites yet?
Runner
I am working my way through Couch 2 5k. I am on Week 5, so I am getting there. I should probably find a 5k to run at the end but it’s summer in Florida and who wants to race then? Between the heat, humidity, and the jogging stroller, I’m not sure what I’m doing is actually running. But I’m out there.
Mom
Evan is 13 months old and in full blown toddler mode. I’m having a bit of a harder time adjusting – it’s hard to remember shoes and snacks when we leave the house! I am single-parenting right now, but it’s going great – partly thanks to my helpful future sister-in-law who is staying with me.
I just love this kid.
