Summer is finally here!!

Wednesday, July 2, 2008
So my spring term classes ended last week. I had planned on taking summer classes, but they canceled the class that I thought was at the perfect time for me. I actually fumed about it for a while. How dare they ruin my beautiful plans of going to school non-stop forever and making myself crazy?! I tried to come up with some way to make some other classes work, but they were just at horrible times that would require lots of hours of my kids at home with grandma. Then Howard said maybe I should just take a break. I said no way, that isn't a choice. I can't take a break, I have it all planned out, I must plug along. Then I started thinking about it and once I started thinking about it, there was no going back. No classes?? Can you imagine the thought? I couldn't even remember what it was like to not have classes. So, I was forced, but I am loving it. Eight weeks of fun here I come.
The initial shock of having nothing to do was rough,
But I am sure I will manage.

Don't you hate karma? I'm sure that's a hugely wrong use of karma, but that's how I always use it. When the universe conspires, and no matter what you do, nothing works out. . . something else is working out.

I've learned (the hard way) that when one thing goes wrong, push along, when a second thing goes wrong, rethink, and when a third thing goes wrong, give up! Ironically, I live a happier life this way.

Today is a good example--I had to go up Provo canyon for the day, and I wanted company. Sam's cousin was going to come with her 2 kids. But the timing was off, so I just cancelled. Her 2 year old started puking an hour later. Good karma (for me, not so much for the 2 year old).

wow! Emily's comment was a bog in and of itself! :) Congratulations on having nothing to do. No one deserves a break more than you. So enjoy.

ps- It's about time you updated your blog. I was getting tired of looking at our LA pics.

I can't go to college for two years, because the stupid USU choked out all the community colleges, has an ultra-oppressive residency requirement, and that really sucks! I think aside from one or two summers, I've never been out of college so far!
