A Pleasant Cool Day and Watermelon

It’s nice and cool today, just got back from my walk around the complex and enjoyed getting out of the apartment. I walked 45 minutes and checked my mailbox while I was out. It was empty but the bills will soon be coming in. Some guy was working on his, he couldn’t get it to lock. I told him to go to the office to let them know before they leave for the day, I did all my notifications before I left for my walk. I had watermelon for a pick me up when I got back. Now I’m going to read a bit in my third Janet Evanovich. I started reading it yesterday so I haven’t gone far but I’m loving it. She’s so funny and I don’t care to read anything serious right now. The title is Eleven OnTop. I’ll figure out why she chose that title later. Hope you all had a good day.

I had a nice drive to the craft store. I am pleased as you can imagine for the cooler temps.

I’m pleased too for now but I dread this cold weather coming in.

@RubyHawk I can't lie I do as well but I must admit it beats a water storm.

@sharon6345 I think you’re right. I certainly don’t want any flooding. We’ve already had too much rain.

I'm glad you had a good day. Watermelon is a good pick-me-up. Enjoy the book.

@just4him It was the last serving in my fridge but It’s probably also the last one in the store. I might not find another’ one until next year.

Yes, just to be out of the apartment and looking at the scenery and passers by is relaxing.

I've been reading her books since she started with the first one. I can't wait for her newest one to come out in November. Her series are all numbered and I love that her main characters are in all of her books. Can't read them without laughing or getting hungry with all the talk about food.

She has her own style I finished that book and I’m ready to start Water for Elephants. I’ve only read a few pages but I’ve heard it’s a good book.

@RubyHawk I've also heard Water for Elephants is a good book. I have it but haven't gotten around to reading it. My "to read" pile is pretty high these days Hope you enjoy it and let me know

@Marilynda1225 My to read books are stacked everywhere while I read Stephanie Plum. I think Water For Elephants is a serious book so I might go back to lighter reading until I’m ready for more serious reading.

@Courtlynn I’m afraid we won’t see watermelons until next year. I might be wrong maybe some will e shipped in from Florida or California.
