In desperate need of an oasis


I need a respite from life. I know that I made choices and now I must deal with the repercussions, but still, I miss not having any type of vacation this year. I want to travel so much that I find myself wasting precious time day-dreaming about Switzerland or a safari in Africa. *sigh* Just a day then to lounge around or get together with some friends. I wish I wasn't still saying to family and friends, "Let me check my schedule."

But I must press on. I am cleaning so as not to be too far behind when I get back on Tuesday afternoon. My friend Susan and I are having a yard/moving sale on Saturday the 28th, and I want to everything ready. I hope to find a place to live while I am in New Bern on Monday and Tuesday, and then move the 1st of August.

I just really have no time to do much. Ben is moving the first of July after returning from Turkey on the 29th! Sheer lunacy! He is mostly packed ;)

Then I have a little surgery, a visit to Texas, some time with Zach AND I have to report to campus August 12th. Oh, yeah, and finish advising at my old college in July and prep for all my classes! The fall is going to be quite interesting, but I think quite profitable. A semester to finally catch up and get ahead. I am really looking forward to that "you're in the black" feeling. I get spurts of it here and there, but mostly, I get the "I need an alternator AND a battery" feeling, 3 days from payday with .38 in the bank. LOL! Life is great!
