These last few weeks/months have been pretty exhausting as we go through the grant process and get ready for renovations at the library. It's really happening now and I'm measuring things in my sleep, trying to prepare every detail for moving the entire youth services department upstairs.
It's also been hot. I do not handle heat well. Swarms of mosquitos have made the outdoors even less appealing, even when I want to go out and work in my garden.
So you'd think I'd be caught up on my reviewing work, but au contraire. Usually by the time I get home, I just want to read some manga and go to bed! I've been trying to get caught up on a wide variety of things - this weekend was refilling the freezer with soup and other prepped meals - but sometimes I just make lists and stare at them. So here, have some lists.

I'm not really counting library books, but I have a total of 90 items checked out.

- Giant Rays of Hope - read and to be reviewed
- 22 picture books
- Escape Artist and Waiting for Winter - read and to be reviewed
- Everything else is manga and nonfiction, with a couple random titles.
Hopefully this will get me invested in catching up on some of this work... or not... for now, back to making soup.
