August

Well, August is nearly over (I think tomorrow is September 1st, actually), and I've not written one entry. I've had lots of good thoughts, but not really a lot of time or extra energy. So what have I been doing? Let's see: I moved all of my furniture to my basement (and by 'I' I mean my dad moved nearly all of my furniture to the basement) and had my hardwoods refinished. The floors are amazingly beautiful. I am really pleased that I had them done even though getting them done was a huge pain. The original company I hired flaked at the last minute, but I found another company who were able to fit me in. They did a wonderful job, and I am so thankful that I found them. I then painted my baseboards and installed quarter round right before leaving for vacation. Upon my return from an amazing trip to Banff , I threw myself a birthday party, which was great fun. I've since been getting caught up at work, which has been killer lately. As if that were not enough, I resigned my current position on Friday. I will start teaching a few writing classes in a couple of weeks. Needless to say, I'm exhausted. I'm hoping that in September I might get to type out some of the things I considered writing about in August.
