Summer

this summer didn’t exactly go as I planned. or hoped. but isn’t that kind of how things go?

some stuff was kind of rather very awesome.

~my job ended out working out a whole lot better than I thought it would

~ being in a different environment all summer

~random ice fights at work
~learning that there are times when it is totally ok and appropriate to end up sitting on the floor because you're laughing so hard
~being the crazy one at work

~ definitely, the best part was having a certain friendship become one of the best things of my life

then there were some of the more “meh” things.

~like CPS getting involved in my life (that’s another whole blog post)

~not getting to spend time outside

~almost drowning in Lake Michigan (hmm…last time I was there, we jumped off a ~25’ pier and this year, I almost drown in the beach part.)

~sticking a box cutter into my pinkie and severing a nerve….all while trying to cut open a box of chicken

and then there are the unclassifiable things

~like spending the majority of my summer in a tired, HYYYYYPEEERRRRR, semi-confused, dazed state of mind and being

~learning you can slip on a wet floor and sprain your knee, then resprain it later

~realizing that after wearing green and khaki 6 days a week, your brain automatically chooses those colors

after all the craziness of this summer, part of me thinks this winter is also going to have its adventures….

actually, I *know* it is.

but God is good. and i'm going to make it.
