We are in mid-September and I feel like I’m doing good on the reading front – I don’t have a lot of arcs for the last 3 months of 2026 so I think I can fit in more non arc reads.

Another weekend, another hurricane, but a tropical storm warning for us on Oahu. Kauai and Ni’ihau got hit bad, Oahu had some coastal areas with big storm surge and damage. Around my neighborhood it was mostly downed flower petals, and tree branches – glad it was not anything like Kauai but man are our islands tired of this year with all the storms we’ve had so far. 😔. I know the mainland have “snow days” for school but this is the most “storm days” we’ve ever had in Hawaii since my kids have been going to school. Let’s hope hurricane season chills as we go into fall season!

It was a crazy weekend with my flying out Friday night to go to a music festival on Saturday and flying back home on Sunday. 😩. The Daisy Chain Fields Festival was HOT, but thank goodness I’ve been traveling to hot places all year – I think I did well because I knew to sacrifice some activities, stay in the shade until the main acts I wanted to see came out. My son and my bestie got to see Mitski, and Doechii – Doechii sounded so good from where my daughter and I were waiting that I asked if we could go watch it and at least sun was kind of going down. We enjoyed her set. Then we ended up trying to find son and my friend before Chappell Roan’s set – I briefly saw my son to give him some water but my daughter and I ended up in the back so she could see the back screen. We still had fun singing and dancing. Then we moved up and reunited with our group for Olivia Rodrigo. I felt bad my daughter couldn’t see the stage or screen and I couldn’t carry her 😅. We still sang out hearts out but now I really want to take her to Olivia’s tour just so she can “see” her perform.

That was my tiring weekend, so I didn’t read anything but I have arcs to finish!

We had a hurricane pass under our island over the weekend and it caused flash flooding, heavy rain, high winds – so glad that though our power did go out here and there, it came back on quick. So kids got the day off on Monday because there was a lot of clean up needed around the island I think – lots of huge trees down, etc…

I did get lots of reading done though!

My kids are back in school today so summer is over for us, boo! But the kids were getting restless at home – my kids hate waking up early but they do like being challenged with school work which I’m glad about. It will give me a little more quiet time in the middle of the day so that will be nice.

I don’t know why I ended up reading everything else except the ones on my TBR. 🤦🏻‍♀️ I do blame Libby for making all my audiobooks available to borrow at the same time. 😅 Also for some reason, I was doing a 1000 piece puzzle to do something else with my brain and I got through 3 audiobooks while finishing the puzzle! So I did get through a lot of books because of it. I need to do more puzzles. 😂

This week is filled with family and my son’s Bar Mitzvah on Saturday so I am going to be busy and then…back to school shopping. 🫤
