My friend, Rae of Powerful Women Readers, went to an author reading for Alda P. Dobbs, and she brought me a copy of Dobbs' book, Barefoot Dreams of Petra Luna, for my granddaughter Annie. (Shhh...don't tell Rae, but I couldn't resist reading Barefoot Dreams before I had to give the book to Annie, so I did last week.) I finished the pop-up version of Le Petit Prince (wonderful!) that I brought home from France in April, and I also listened to Nataly Kogan's Gratitude Daily and Happier Now.

I need to do more exercise. Not sure I will be able to do anything like that but swimming is on my radar 🤣
ReplyDeleteI did some posts for Paris in July but they weren't in the wrap up. I thought that I had signed up on the main page. Was there somewhere else to post them?
Have a great week next week!
