It�s 2 am. I should be exhausted and fast asleep, but it isn�t happening. I worked until nearly 8 pm tonight. So much to do at work, I could have stayed there all night and I�d still not be caught up with all the projects on my plate.
As I walked out of the building I noticed that it seemed darker then it should have. Once I got to the doors I could see that it was raining outside. It�s been raining most of the evening. The train is going through town, blowing its whistle. I can hear the train running on the tracks. I love hearing the train. It�s cool tonight, 57F. It�s wonderful.
I had a busy weekend. I helped my sister with some spring cleaning at her house. We made terrific progress. It felt good to get so much accomplished in two days. I could hardly move each morning when I woke up. It was a good work out. Monday I cleaned house here for the July Birthday�s. The party was at my house. I was a crazy cleaning machine for three days!! Sunday� I slept in, weeded the front flower bed and played on the computer. It was a quite, restful day. It was really nice to have just nothing to do for a whole day. The boys were gone to Woodland Park most of the afternoon and evening. It was blissfully quiet. I�d really hoped to make some progress on the sprinkler system installation this past weekend, but didn�t even touch that, perhaps NEXT weekend.
We are coming up on Summer School. I have Wednesday through Friday off next week for that. I really enjoy summer school, but it�ll be nice to be through the responsibility of making sure it goes off as planned. Then a couple more weeks at work� and viola!! The Lake!!! I am looking forward to the Lake trip (as usual). One full week with nothing in particular planned; a little swimming, some reading, some visiting and eating. Nice.
The job hunting is going slow. I haven�t looked for about a week now. I don�t imagine I�ll look much between now and the Lake, though I do need to keep on it. My finances are scaring me a little bit, but I am just focusing on what I can do THIS moment, THIS month, and not looking down the road. Down the road too far is totally freaking me out.
My vegetable garden is really growing well!! I got two big zucchini�s out of it on Monday. So awesome!! It�s totally fun, when stuff actually grows. I�ll dig up my first potatoes after summer school and we�ll see how they are growing. The cucumber plant is just starting to bloom. I am sure that this rain is REALLY going to help every thing grow.
I need to get up in four hours. I really need to get some sleep. I guess I�ll go make another attempt at sleeping.
Sweet dreams. M.
