You have probably heard the phrase “my eyes were bigger than my stomach,” yes? Well, I have a new one ~ my reading desires were bigger than my actual time. I admit I have a bad bad habit of trying to cram too much into one ~ family vacation with a four & seven year old? Yes, let’s plan to read not one, but FIVE, books!
My last ‘it’s Monday’ post shared this lofty list of books I wanted to read while on family vacation. But, instead of reading any of the books listed, I read one that came in the mail just before leaving for the beach ~ Wendy Wax’s latest A Week at the Lake.

It’s been five years since Emma has seen her friends, an absence designed to keep them from discovering a long-ago betrayal. Now she’s in desperate need of their support. The time has come to reveal her secrets—and hopefully rekindle their connection.
But when a terrible accident keeps Emma from saying her piece, Serena and Mackenzie begin to learn about the past on their own. Now, to heal their friendship and their broken lives, the three women will have to return to the lake that once united them, and discover which relationships are worth holding on to . . .
Please tell me someone else shares my affliction!
Are you an over-planner, over-goal setter or more of the realistic sort?
