Day after

 Tuesday

 

Lots and lots of fireworks last night. Loud boomers. Coda was freaked all weekend. Ryker only heard them last night when it was unavoidable. So so tired today. Stopped-ish about midnight but then the boys wouldn't settle. I got maybe a couple hours of sleep and not consecutively. 

 Steve has a board meeting tonight so I don't have to feed him and I can go to bed early. If that works out.

 On Saturday, I finished my found objects for June. Beginning:

Finished:

 

 I'm kinda proud of them. I don't think I'll be doing the ones for July. Need a break.

 

 Speaking of taking a break, I read a quick romance this weekend. WILL THEY; WON'T THEY by Portia MacIntosh

When life goes off track sometimes the only thing you can do is go back to where it all began... Emmy Palmer is the star of Bragadon Forest, the biggest fantasy series on TV; adored by the public, living the life of glamour and luxury in London. But when scandal breaks, Emmy must escape the city and return to her seaside hometown to lie low and wait for the storm to pass. And as tragedy strikes for her family, it is good timing to go back to her roots. Emmy's agent decides it would be a good look to star in the community Christmas pantomime, but who else could be playing her leading man but her ex-boyfriend who she may or may not have ditched to move to London a decade ago... As the show approaches, love and friendships blossom and the real question is - Will they? Won't they?

I also might have started THE LOST FLEET: DAUNTLESS by Jack Campbell. 1st of 6 in SFF series

 The Alliance has been fighting the Syndics for a century—and losing badly. Now its fleet is crippled and stranded in enemy territory. Their only hope is a man who's emerged from a century-long hibernation to find he has been heroically idealized beyond belief.... Captain John “Black Jack” Geary’s exploits are known to every schoolchild. Revered for his heroic “last stand” in the early days of the war, he was presumed dead. But a century later, Geary miraculously returns and reluctantly takes command of the Alliance Fleet as it faces annihilation by the Syndics. Appalled by the hero-worship around him, Geary is nevertheless a man who will do his duty. And he knows that bringing the stolen Syndic hypernet key safely home is the Alliance’s one chance to win the war. But to do that, Geary will have to live up to the impossibly heroic “Black Jack” legend....
