Jet Lag

Vacation was... intense.
Mostly because I was PMSing
And my grandma is spastic
Being excited and worried.

I swam, I shopped, I played
Hand and Food with my grandma.
I rode bikes, went on the swing,
read, wrote, and slept.

All in all, it was relaxing if not long.
Getting back was hard -
And just a whole other story -
but I'm just grateful that I am back.

Flying to Florida

I fly to Florida tomorrow
With my grandmother in tow.

Last summer, my whole family went.
The summer before, I went for a week.
The summer before that, I went for two weeks.

I am looking forward to relaxing,
But I have so much to do here.

I am mostly packed.
I hope it all goes well!

The Busy Busy Summer

I know it's only the middle of June,
But already I am tons busy.

My grandma is visiting,
And so is my sister's boyfriend.
We play tennis most mornings,
And I try to bike a lot too.

Next week I leave for vacation.
My mother is de-cluttering the house.
Lots of family dinners, games, and talks.

I try to work on my afghan business.
I like to write and read.
But I have been working quite a bit
On stuff for my other job.

And it will get busier.
Because it's only just begun.

This Time of Year

What is it about this time of year that makes kids go crazy?
I mean, I know school's out, but still.
I never acted this badly with the babysitters, summer or not.
