Kindle

So, a few months ago, I caved and bought a Kindle.  I didn't think I would like it, but in fact, I love it.  I love how it fits into my purse, and I can read it anywhere. . . . sitting in the blue zone while waiting for carpool, sitting in a waiting room or on my very own sofa.  I love downloading books onto it, and having all the books in one place, and NOT all over my coffee table and bedroom.  I thought I would miss turning pages.  I don't.  I love how I can download books from the library.  I don't love how their is a long line for the books.    Sometimes, I can't read the book in three or six weeks, and then I never know how it ends!

There is one thing that I don't like.  When I buy an actual book, the one with pages. . . . I used to share with my mom and friends.  I cut my budget down by doing that.  If we all shared books, we didn't have to shell out bucks for books all the time.  But, even though I heard that you can share with the Kindle, I haven't found a book that will let me do that.

What have I read?

Well, of course Fifty Shades of Gray . . . and the others.

Right now I am reading YES CHEF by Marcus Samuelsson, which  I love. 

Unorthodox, which was a good read.

Chopping Spree - a mystery book by Diane Mott Davidson.

Seasons: A Real Story of an Amish Girl.

I love my Kindle.  Just wish I could share my digital library.  Any suggestions besides PRIME? 

Overnight Camp

I dropped off Mark 8 days ago, and I miss him. . . . ALOT!  I wonder what he will look like when we pick him up on July 22. . .  .

We FINALLY got some mail from him today.

Letter #1 - HAPPY ANNIVERSARY."  (At least he remembered!)
Letter #2 - Please send me band aids and Great Pop's address (still one sentence, but at least he wants his great grandfather's address.  Wonder what he is going to write.
Letter #3 to Naomi - My first Saturday.  We had muffins and cinamon rolls for breakfast.  The kitchen chefs make great food!  How are things going for you from Mark.

Now, why does Naomi get more detail than me???? 

Why does he need Bandaids??????

Better than three letters, a friend was touring the camp, and saw him . . . . and emailed me about it.  She said that he looks very happy and smiled continuously while at the water front.  Of course, I smiled once I read the email.  Because I never went to overnight camp, I have NO idea about anything.  But all I know is that the happy letters keep coming, and if he is wearing a smile, then I am beaming.

I still miss him . . . . but I know he is having a great time.
