grr...

I'm so bad at this lately, but I swear it's not my fault. Busy lately with work, plus some "freelancing" (for lack of a better term) that I am doing for a scholar that is associated with the Institute I work for. I'm very happy/excited for it, and hopefully this won't be the last time that I do something like this. It's not hard work, just time consuming and repetative... but my deadline is July 12th, so its a max of two and a half weeks for a few hundred bucks, plus a bonus if I get it done early. Yippee. Travis has been great about it and volunteered to do all the dishes while I'm working on this stuff, since I've been working on it every night (plus over the weekend he did lots of other stuff around the house, it was great!).

Now I just have to decide what I'm going to use this extra money for. I have a few idea... things I/we have been wanting to get, but just haven't wanted to spend the money on... a tattoo for each of us, good (new!!) walking shoes for me, some new clothes, a new bra (ladies out there know that this is a splurge), some combo of those, or something I couldn't think of in this moment. We always pay extra on our mortgage and my car payment... it will be nice to spend something extra on myself/my hubby. Yippee.

In other news, it's really summer now... even though its felt like it for weeks, this past thursday was the real beginning of summer, and the beginning of the end of long summer days. You know me, the heat has been melting me and I can't wait for the fall. It's almost July though, and July means Cape Cod... so that will help the time fly. Not to mention that Boss is out of town for two weeks... so hopefully that time will pass quickly also. It should be mucho relaxing, but I have so much to get done.

Speaking of which, I need to get back to it. Don't worry, I'm sure with the boss gone, I'll be back sooner rather then later.
