For the month of July, I read & listened to 14 books. Not bad, since we were on vacation for over half of it. I am, however, still 10 books behind in my Goodreads challenge 106/200. This week we had storms that knocked out our power for about 4 hours. All during the time we planned a party for our daughter’s 30th. So no dinner, but we all had cake and sang by candlelight. The grandkids couldn’t believe their luck at getting cake before dinner. LOL I sent everyone out after the storm, with a little money for fast food dinners since no one had power at home. We lost some trees, but neighbors lost fences and more. Many folks still do not have power and we are grateful that our neighborhood was restored so quickly. Our children all have power and I am grateful they didn’t lose food or work. My husband’s office finally got power back on Friday. The storms produced high winds similar to a Category 2 Hurricane. I have never seen so many tree braches covering our lawn. We are now experiencing a heat wave and while I will never complain about warm temps; I do hope power is restored quickly for everyone affected. Stay Caffeinated.
