There are so many things going on right now. I just want summer weather. It rained on me all the way to work, and all the way home. W. ordered thai food, ( I think that was the first time EVER that he phoned in an order, wow!) and we've just been discussing the future. I feel like we've been down this path before, and every time I've wanted it to work out but kind of known that it wouldn't. This time it is the most difficult, but financially feasible opportunity. But the logistics just don't sound promising. At the same time I truly believe that if we want it and work towards it it will happen. Just knowing how to begin working towards it is difficult. Ahh life.
This weekend we are taking C. & C. out on the boat. This shall prove interesting. I think it will be fun. The boat is tiny, but I think we can make it work.

Mid Twenties
Oh my god, mid twenties, no more early twenties as of Sunday. So I guess I should be an irresponsible early twenties girl and just, oh I don't know, get really drunk, skip work, spend all my money, all those things that will no longer be okay once I'm in my mid twenties! ha, not like I've ever done any of those things. Well, I have been really drunk at least! I am curious what exactly I will remember my twenty fourth year as. What did I do since last June?
I applied, and was accepted into, the BEd (Elementary) program. So I will be a University student now. We moved to this awesome top floor home. I feel like not much else has happened, but my life is moving fast. Man.
So I think I'd like to make a list. 25 in 25 to know what I accomplish over the next year. I will start this list tomorrow, or on my birthday I need some time to think it over!

Up and out
Last week was dreary. The weather was dreary (it is today too), my mood was dreary, my body was exhausted. I was sick and emotional and guilt ridden. I was down about not working, not contributing, not being productive the way I think I should. I need to step back, enjoy my "me" time. I know it won't last long, in fact it won't last at all.
On Tuesday it was C.C.'s year end performance. Those kids made my day. The little kids dancing to J.B. made me actually squeal with delight. And E. has an amazing voice, I had no idea. Kids are so brave. Another brave kid, my not so little nephew. Tonight he has a band performance at the band stand in the park. I'm excited to go. My sister will be there too, I haven't seen her in months.
Last weekend we went up to D. & P.'s house. J. K. & baby L. came over. We ate more ice cream in 24 hours than I should in a week. But it really felt like a summer weekend, dinner outside, walks on the pier. Ahh summer.
This week has been better, I just applied for about 7 or 8 jobs, hopefully I'll hear back from at least 2 of them. But we'll see, not working isn't all bad. I feel like I've really caught up on my sleep! But poor W. having to get up so early every day. This is where I put guilt on myself. I have to let us be individuals, we make our own choices, even though we are so intertwined.
This post is random, but this is how I think. My birthday, oh my birthday. Do I even care? Yes, I care. All I desire is thoughtfulness. Not expensive gifts, thoughtful gifts. Off for now, W. should be home any minute.

June
Well it's June. How did that happen? The count down to my birthday has begun. But I don't think anyone else is counting. I don't really care, 25 is a good number. I'm in a good place. Well mostly. Just a few minor financial mishaps, that I know looking back will not matter! But right now, today, it sucks. I enjoy not working full time, but I have guilt. Guilt that W. has to work so hard, that I can't contribute how much I want, I can't just go to the store when I want. But it is a lesson in frugality. I think long and hard before swiping my debit to make sure I actually need what I'm buying. I'm staying away from V.V. I have to phone student loans and I'm putting it off.
I'd like to add my own pictures on here, but I have reservations about putting all the pictures onto the computer. I don't know how much space I have on here.
W.'s going to the bank tomorrow. Having him doing this makes me feel like maybe we are heading in the right direction, and that hopefully we will be getting ahead financially.
On Friday J. and I are supposed to go to the elementary school to do two Escher workshops. I still don't want to. I will rehearse tonight. After the game that is. I am going to make nachos to start, then I have two pizzas, and root beer floats for dessert! MMM I want to set up dinner before W. gets home. He's writing his final tonight for his 1st year apprenticeship. I'm so proud. I feel like I could go on and on. Maybe I should try to write regularly. We'll see, we'll see.
