End of a long week

I can't believe June is almost over. July is my favorite month for many reasons, the most obvious of course being my birthday. Growing up, 4th of July celebrations always seemed like a giant prelude to my big day, and even now, years later, fireworks make me exceptionally happy and remind me of many birthdays from the past. Not to mention, since meeting Mike, I've also had our anniversary to celebrate on that very same day! :D I also always plan our annual Cabin Trip to be near the end of the month, as a final hurrah before August comes along (bringing with it school and other crappiness). Needless to say, it will fly by faster than June has. O_O My summer is slipping away!

This is the first time in my life that I've worked 40 hour weeks consistently, and this week I even worked my first hour of overtime. By the time Friday comes along I'm pretty friggin' exhausted. To add to this, the Mom and I get up early every morning and go walking, then ride our bikes to the high school and back every night! And lately, we've taking up remodeling just about every room in the house. >_< We've started with the dinning room by re-painting everything and tearing up the carpeting. There's beautiful hardwood floor hidden underneath! It's really nice though--I feel busy and useful. Even though I don't want the summer to go so quickly, at the same time I know going back to school means I'm that much closer to being done. The end of this next year will put me halfway through pharmacy school, and completely finished with what I've come to call the "hard part." So for now, I enjoy the summer tremendously but think as kindly as possible about it's eventual end.
