Hello, Summer!


SAMSUNGIt is finally that time of the year; I look forward to resuming blogging with some regularity after having spent a long period of hibernation. Seriously, I started a new job earlier this year after being out of the loop for about a year; this position entails working with children in an after-school setting and I must say it left me at the end of the day–with nothing else to say. I am sure all teachers out there can relate. LOL

I will make no promises here, but I will try consistency going forward.  If I do not write much during the Summer, at least I will make every effort to post something to let you know I am still around; you will probably see more photos, that will give a hint on what I am up to. As usual, the family is a big part of my life and you already know how I feel about my granddaughters.

Here is a preview of how my summer began, Happy 2nd birthday Elisa! Abuela loves you!

Summer reads


I’ve been home all week taking a break from work. During this time I tried to do as little as possible; no housework for sure, and just about enough cooking to pass inspections from the hubby. You know what I mean, the “You mean you’ve been home all day, and did not cook dinner?” looks. I did manage to get some laundry done here and there, but mostly I vegged out, and rightly so I need some rest!

Because my job entails a lot of reading and writing (grants) I tend to crash out whenever I can. So this week, I decided to catch up on my personal collection of reading materials. Not only do I have a stack of magazine subscriptions, Shape, Fitness, Essence, Time… to read, I also have a downloaded mini-collection of books on my Kindle which are begging for attention. My Blackberry has the Kindle app downloaded to it, so “it” gets more action for reading, just because we are so attached at the hip (according to my hubby)  LOL!

This morning for whatever the reason, don’t ask me why I visited the Kindle store, looking for another book to read. I think it’s because I go back to work on Monday to face fifty (50) little summer campers who will be ready to tear the place down, and I am thinking… escape! Reading does that for me, and I had a brilliant idea: download suitable books for the campers to read on their Kindles and perhaps, maybe, we will be able to craft a couple of quality reading hours for the children–and some peace and quiet for me during summer camp, yeah!!! Am I brilliant or what?!

That’s what I am talking about!!!
