Change

Along with a sense of fun times ahead, I have always thought of summer as a time of renewal. You can be what you want, do what you want and change whatever you aren't happy with.

I'm curious and anxious to see what this summer brings.

Summer

First off, blogging has been very therapeutic for me. I'm not necessarily able to say EVERYTHING I want (my blog isn't that anonymous) but it's nice to have an outlet for the things I want to say. I love the comments that I do get. So, thank you.

I blogged earlier about loving summer, even though I work full time. Well, tonight illustrated why. I took the little monkey to ballet dress rehearsal. Afterwards, we invited good friends over for dinner (Chinese take-out). After dinner, the monkey's and their friend went out to the front yard to ride scooters and play basketball. The adults stood around talking and playing with the kids.

We had a GREAT time. It was warm outside, the sun was out, and since it is the last week of school, no one had to rush home to do homework.

What a nice beginning to summer vacation. I sincerely hope that he rest of summer is just like this!

It's Almost Summer Time

So I didn't go to the gym tonight. I did go grocery shopping instead. It's a good thing I didn't go work out - I would have probably sprained something.

I was so brain dead, I picked up like 4 or 5 different items than I had coupons for, gave coupons that I didn't buy the product and totally lost track of my items for the buy 10, get $5 off promotion.

Oh well, I got home in one piece. I will try to make up for the gym later this week.

I am so excited for the summer - although I am not sure why, since I am still working full time. May be it is the thought of not doing homework with the big monkey for a couple of months. Maybe it's the thought of getting together with out family friends and not rushing to get home on Sunday night.

It's probably also just the thought of endless possibilities, even if the road stays untaken.
