5 more days 'till Harry Potter....

Wow, July already. And I have not posted anything since April. I am not good at this whole, blogging thing. But that's ok, I can only get better.

As you may have guessed from the title, I am super excited for the release of the new Harry Potter movie. It has been two years since the last one, and I just re-read the last 3 books so I am primed and ready for this movie! Steve and I are going to try to go in the middle of the week to aviod the crowds. We went and saw the last one the weekend it opened, and it was a gong show. Teenagers everywhere. *Shudder*

There are actually other new developments besides my Harry Potter-itis (which isn't really new, it just flares up every now and then). It's summer, which means lots of work for Steve on the farm. Which he loves. Especially when it is 35 degrees outside...oh wait, that he does not love. Overall though, I think he has a good time. I finished my two semseters of school (the summer semester was not too bad, I would do that again) and did really well. For someone with a solid 'C' average in high school, those A-'s are looking pretty sweet. I am looking forward to the fall semseter and seeing if History is truly what I want to do. So far it looks good. As for work....well, I am not acutally working right now. I'm on sick leave, which is kind of a bummer. I have been refered to yet ANOTHER specialist (a more specialized one) and I am really optimistic that this guy will be able to help me and get me back in business. Literally, I guess.

So I am spending time at home and being grateful that if I have to BE at home, at least it is summer and not the middle of winter. Summer is not such a bad time to have loads of free time, it turns out. Although I did anticipate having more free time than I actually have. It seems that I still have something going on almost everyday, and am still driving up to town a couple of times a week. But it is nice that my stress levels are considerably lower than they were. I think that is helping on the road to good health.

In other news, we have kittens. Four of them to be exact. Well, three actually as one went to a new home tonight. It was sad, but I know she'll be in very good hands. And we are going to keep one, so that's nice. It will be fun to have a kitten around again. And frankly, we don't have enough animals around here.....wait a minute..... ok, maybe we have almost enough.
Well, I think that's about it for now. I am off to bed, it feels like it has been a long day, even though I don't think I got very much accomplished....well, there's always tomorrow!
