A Day In The Life, Summer Edition

Welcome to the Share Our Lives link up hosted by myself, Adrienne, Jen, Joanne, and Sarah! We are sharing our lives this year on the second Monday of each month, and this month’s prompt is a day in the life, summer edition. I know everyone loves a good day in the life post, but for one thing, my life is pretty boring, and for another, I decided to stop choosing a specific day to write about after something bad always seemed to happen on whatever day I’d choose! So this is just a run down of what a normal day in my life is like – right now.

What I Read In June 2024 Part 2

Today’s post covers the second half of the books I read in June 2024. I shared what I read in the first half of the month here. I shared my five star reads here. I actually do have two more 5 star reads to share here as well! The Amazon links to the books I’ve read are affiliate links and if you use them and make a purchase, I may receive a small commission. If you’ve read any of these books or are interested in them, I’d love to hear about it in the comments!

Israel Trip Part 2 – Surgery and Recovery

When I left off last time, I had left the hospital after breaking my ankle. It was Friday, and I was told to come back on Sunday for the surgery. We did get to spend Shabbat at my sister-in-law’s house along with our nephew and his wife and three girls. My pain level was so so, and I was not excited about having surgery and thus increasing that pain level!

Currently…July 2024

The first Wednesday of the month is the Currently link up and I’m once again linking up with Jennifer. This month’s prompt words are loving, looking forward to, savoring, celebrating, and remembering.

Prime (and Other) Purchases in June 2024

Today I’m once again linking up with Tanya to share what I’ve been purchasing via Amazon and elsewhere over the past month. We weren’t home for a lot of June so some of these items are from just before we left and there have been a few since we got home. I’m also sharing a few of the souvenirs I purchased while away. These links are affiliate links, which means that if you click them and make a purchase, I may receive a small incentive.
