Summer... A Blessing and A Curse

It is officially summer! Woohoo! Right?!

Now, I may be the only one who feels this way but summer really isn't my thing. I am definitely a creature of habit and routine, so summer kinda screws with that. People always say don't you get tired of the commute, late nights and endless phone calls and texts from kids? Uh not really...

I thrive on the routine provided by the school year. While occasionally, I could pull out all my hair from the stress, piles of paperwork, countless meetings and endless student questions. I completely love it. My days are planned, productive and predictable. I like that shiz.

I've been out of school for just over a week now and my life has been anything but planned, productive or predictable. For starters I've been San Francisco 5 of 10 days... For both good and not so good. Spent last Saturday and Sunday at the Healdsburg Relay for Life with my kiddos. I have been at school a couple of days, cleaning and meeting about the building of my new classroom. I will say, last week I cleaned my house top to bottom and that was EXTREMELY productive and much needed. haha...

Summer is complete chaos. So many things going on with no really structure. I'm still in the Master's program at Chico State, so keeping on top of classes without planned time has become a struggle. I have a couple weddings coming up, a conference in SLO next week (completely pumped) and a couple weeks of laid back relaxation in the future.

I guess I will manage, but I feel like I waste so much time during summer. Maybe it's because I read most nights till midnight and then find it difficult to get up at a reasonable time?

In the last 10 days, I have gone to 2 SF Giants games, so that can totally continue...
 With my kiddos, Top 20 Trip on Thursday
 Met my Bestie on Friday night at the game...
Gotta love how fancy Club Level is!


Cheers to Summertime!!! Before we know it, school will be back in session... I better get things started if I plan to complete them before August 12th.

P.S. Thanks to everyone for the messages, calls, comments and concern about my mom... She's home, doing good and we are watching (and listening to) lots of baseball.

 
Happy Fathers Day to all the great dads out there!!!!

Especially my dad... He's a badass... And a complete pain in the booty! Love ya Grumpy!
