In a word… busy! But good busy, of course. I remember the days when I was a SAHM and while it’s easy to get nostalgic, and sometimes I miss them, honestly with the kids all older now, I have no idea what I’d be doing with myself! I loved being at home and I am grateful that we were in a position that I could be a SAHM, but now it’s so rewarding to serve my community. This July marks my 5-year anniversary in my role as Library Director, which is so hard to believe. I feel like I have a good balance between work and my homelife and honestly… I am pretty darn lucky!
Anyway! Besides being chock full of activities, Summer here in the Hudson Valley has been very hot. Summer is not my favorite season, but it has its lovely moments. I have been…
Enjoying my garden
Listening to audiobooks
Driving kids to and from work (and getting to enjoy gorgeous views I wouldn’t see from my own yard)
Enjoying the fun summer reading programs we’re scheduling at the library (yes, that’s a baby kangaroo!)
Planning an end-of-summer getaway
Before you know it, my middle kid will be heading back to college and my youngest will be starting Sophomore year in high school. Time sure does fly! Hope you all are doing your best to enjoy it!
