A Monday update

I suppose I should update this thing before too much more time passes.  Honestly, I'm just not feeling the whole blogging thing right now and am contemplating a break until the end of summer.  There's too much going on in the summer and we have to make the most of it,  you know?!  haha! :)  Oh, we'll see what happens.  As soon as I decide to take a break, then I'll think of something that I want to blog about and there goes the break! :)

I actually haven't updated since the 4th of July because I've been sick off and on since then!  I'm not real sure what is going on, but it's almost like I'm fighting off some type of flu bug or something.  I've had a couple of not-so-good days and then a couple of so-so days and only a couple good days.  So, who knows.  I just hope that it passes sooner than later!!

It's official...six weeks from today, the new academic year will start at the University and summer will be over. :(  I cannot believe how quickly this summer is going!!  I'm actually starting to feel a like panicky about it.  I made a to-do list for work at the end of May...things I wanted to accomplish this summer.  So far, I have only crossed TWO things off on that list (out of 16 items)!!  Yikes!  And in all reality...I probably only have FOUR good weeks of uninterrupted work time left before the professors start returning and things kick into gear for the fall semester.  Aye carumba.  Time to really kick things into gear, I guess!! :)

I have no big travel plans for the rest of the summer, I'm afraid.  I'm thinking of going to visit my good friend, Monique, at her new home in the far North, but I'm not 100% sure if that's going to work out yet.  I wanted to also go visit my other good friends, John & Esther, since they moved hours away and I'm not sure when that is going to work out, either!!  I do have some Wisconsin friends who are going to come out and see me at the end of July, so that will be quite fun. :)  Now if I could just make things work for my other travel plans, that would be fantastic!! :)

Hope all is well with you!! :)
