Summer!!!

Those of you who know me, know that I am a summer baby. The problem lately, hasn't been my lack of enthusiasm for summer, it is just that for the last several summers, I have been too busy to really enjoy. I was either killing myself while taking summer classes so I could hurry and get my masters, or I was taking classes AND teaching at the loft, or I was taking classes, and taking more classes in Bowling Green (and driving back and forth every day). Whew! Looking back I am not sure where all that energy came from. But this summer is SOOOOO different.

We got out of school last Wednesday and I have managed to stay busy doing piddly things. For example, Thursday we had to be in school to close out, Friday I went to organize Jeff's office in Russellville, and the weekend I spent cleaning every nook and cranny I could find. Today, I took a little slower, but still managed to get my errands done this mornings, scheduled appointments for dentists, and dog groomers, and then watched a movie with my kid. (Dazed and Confused - if you haven't seen it, you should; especially those of you who are of the same age as I.) Anyway, I took it slower.

I have also been clicker training Emma, formerly known as Trixie. Comanche thought her name sounded too promiscuous, so Emma seemed far less worldly sounding. She is coming along nicely, so everyone is getting along beautifully.

I hope to catch some pool time with Amy and the occassional runnning we do over the summer (Jeremy is playing for the Oilers - so maybe we will catch a ballgame or two). Other than that - summer is looking pretty quiet. I'm glad.
