Im so glad summer is here. Do you know how when you go on a vacation, about one week into it..about the time you are fixing to leave, is when you finally relax? That's how I felt on Friday but the sweet part is that the summer is just beginning! So excited! I accomplished most of my goals while the girl was at VBS...except for one closet, I did the whole, purge and get rid of thing which was lovely. How is it possible that every year we have more and more stuff. I swear I keep giving things away and there is just more of it. I want to start to be more cognizant (a new word I used in the writing of paper #9) of what we buy and bring into the house. Not only from a management point of view, but from a resource point of view. We actually need much less that we have, Ive realized in life, and less is so much more in terms of having to take care of things. Of course Im able to say this because Ive never really know abject (another new word, from paper 4 I believe) poverty.

Okay...anyone have any good books? Im just not falling in love with anything lately and its annoying me. Reading is my great solace in life (besides Jesus Christ that is!) and I dont have anything that Im loving. At the library I ended up checking out A THOUSAND SPLENDID SUNS because I knew I would love it. Okay, okay...ill admit it, Im a total book junkie.

We are looking forward to heading to Sliver Springs with the in-laws this week. It looks adorable and not totally Disney-ed out if you know what i mean. My mom said that she remembers on their trips to Florida when she was young, they stopped at Silver Springs and it was the cat's meow...this was of course before Disney.
Have a great weekend!

Are you just into novels? Have you read Toxic Faith? I am only on chapter two and it's fabulous and realistic. Not a novel but good.
