Summer's End

Seriously? Where has summer gone? I feel like it just started and we are now at its end. It has been a whirlwind around here the past couple of weeks and I know I won't be able to fill you in on ALL of the details.

Do you remember back when I said I was taking a hiatus? How it was supposed to be relaxing and a time to catch up on some much needed sleep before I started my second job? Yeah well we were without power for over 2 days. And let me tell you when it's rather warm outside having air is quite nice. Now I had a choice to be upset about it all, which in the moments right after it happened, I was. But I decided to find other things to occupy my time with. It's amazing how much you take for granted all of the technology we have in our lives. After dealing with all of that craziness we finally got it back on and it was like Christmas around here.

As you know my birthday was last weekend, and unfortunately, it wasn't what I had in mind at all for my big 25th. I can never seem to get a good celebration out of any major milestone. My 21st fell on the day before classes started. My golden birthday was a dud as well. I had planned on going on a trip but that fell through when I realized I needed to save money. Boy had planned on whisking me away to a bed and breakfast, but never followed through with that plan, mainly because we were both creeped out by the floral décor. He then wound up working all weekend, which sucked. He did take me out for my birthday to a Brazilian restaurant which was delicious beyond words. I saw him a few more times that weekend just for a few hours here and there. I was supposed to go out with a group of friends on Saturday night to drink and dance, but no one seemed up for it. Perhaps that's what happens when you turn 25.

And as you all know I started my second job well over 2 weeks ago now and I feel all sorts of disheveled. I still can't seem to get a routine going as far as when to eat and when to workout and that is getting me more flustered than ever. I feel like I'm gaining more and more weight and that is making me upset. I'm not sure how much longer I can put up with having two jobs.

Here's to a 3 day weekend trip, which finds me traveling to Michigan to visit my sister and her husband.

Peace&Love
