The rain. Oh my goodness, we're floating away guys. Although, many others have it worse than us because our house isn't flooded and we can still drive on the roads. Little Girl was out of school Monday for President's Day. Thursday, I had an early dentist appointment. My mom kept the kids and we hung out at her house most of the day. We did have to quickly run by the pediatrician for m son to have a urinalysis. Little Girl was running a fever Thursday night so I didn't send her to school Friday even though she was feeling better. We did go outside for a little bit. Friday was my grandmother's birthday, so Saturday we traveled to Mobile to visit her. We had a small family celebration. I love seeing how much my kids love her. She's 88 years old now.

Goodreads description--In this coming-of-age romance perfect for fans of Jenny Han and Sarah Dessen, scandal and romance collide when an ambitious teen returns to her hometown only to have her plans interrupted after falling for the town’s “bad boy”—a.k.a. her childhood best friend.Sometimes to find the good, you have to embrace the bad.
Budding photographer Josie Saint-Martin has spent half her life with her single mother, moving from city to city. When they return to her historical New England hometown years later to run the family bookstore, Josie knows it’s not forever. Her dreams are on the opposite coast, and she has a plan to get there.
What she doesn’t plan for is a run-in with the town bad boy, Lucky Karras. Outsider, rebel…and her former childhood best friend. Lucky makes it clear he wants nothing to do with the newly returned Josie. But everything changes after a disastrous pool party, and a poorly executed act of revenge lands Josie in some big-time trouble—with Lucky unexpectedly taking the blame.
Determined to understand why Lucky was so quick to cover for her, Josie discovers that both of them have changed, and that the good boy she once knew now has a dark sense of humor and a smile that makes her heart race. And maybe, just maybe, he’s not quite the brooding bad boy everyone thinks he is… (
