The smell of freshly sharpened pencils is in the air again for me. I have had a wonderful month of rest and relaxation. I have spent a lot of time in the car this month, traveling between here and home. We celebrated Dad's 50th Birthday and Mom's 29th. I have spent a lot of quality time with Paris. She's going to really miss me next week when I'm gone all day. I also painted the kitchen. I learned while I was painting that it is a lot of work to do by yourself, and I now have an itch to get to the rest of the house. I'll have to wait for a long weekend. Since I painted the ceiling, it took a lot longer than I had planned for.
Today I am watching football and getting ready for the semester. Vikings won. Chargers are on right now. How lame is it that I can't get CBS for free! I'm following the game on NFL Gamecast. I have considered getting cable again for two reasons: football and the Olympics. Any ideas on how I can follow the Olympics?!? It's a real dilemma.
I didn't know if I had anything blogworthy, but I am trying to get back into it. Enjoy the before and after pictures! There are more on facebook.

Return to Blogland
Sounds like a movie title for a sequel of some sort.
I was looking through my browser buttons checking to see what sort of things I have found worthy of becoming buttons. My secret blog (may it rest in peace) and this one were there, untouched for months. I started reading through posts about things that I don't even remember. That's when I realized that this blogging thing is great for me. I get to write about whatever I want, and when I want a good laugh I can come back and read it! For example, I didn't realize that I started watching LOST in March! I've been telling people is was earlier in the year. I watched five whole seasons in a few short months. Then I had to wait many long months for season six, but the wait will soon be over!
I enjoy reading the blogs of friends. I find myself constantly wishing for an update, but I've been silent since May. So much has happened in my life: new house, new school, new dog, new friends, new challenges, new roommate, new camera (perfect for blogging, of course!), new recipes, new books, lots of things. I'm probably going to forget many moments that would have been preserved if I'd just taken the time to blog! So here I am. I'm not sure how often I will update, but I'll be around.
Call it a resolution... or a revolution! (tagline for the forthcoming movie)
