Current Mood: Cool & Happy

While I didn’t get either of them ON my birthday, I knew about both that day. The green present arrived Tuesday and the box arrived today.

Sweet!

I took a ride today to visit the AT&T store to resolve the issues from two years ago when I got Izzy the iPhone as a birthday gift. It’s finally in my name and since my contract was up last month, I’ve been hemming and hawing about getting a new iPhone 4. When the associate told me I could have it in my hot little hands on Wednesday, I ordered it. Wahoo! Of course, the confirmation email I get told me five to ten days shipping time. We’ll see who is right. If the email is right, it’s just me getting bent over by AT&T again. Apple’s site says three weeks shipping time, so I can’t get too pissed, although I wondered if there were any in the Apple store.

I had a wonderful birthday. My marina friends surprised me and showed up at the restaurant Mr. Chatty took me to for dinner. I had a feeling something was up because everyone was “going home” early. My parents also called in a gift card for dinner with the same thing I said to my mother four days earlier on her birthday when I sent her flowers. I already got her a gift and gave it to her in June when I went to visit and she asked why the flowers. I said, “because it’s always nice to get something on your birthday”. The waiter put a generous gift card in front of me and that is what the inside said. Nice, huh?

Mr. Chatty got me this as a birthday/anniversary gift. It’s a big deal because I rarely get jewelry. he’s a good guy.

We came home last night from vacationing at the boat for the week. I love being at the boat, but I do love being at home.

School starts two weeks from Thursday. I have to go in this Wednesday for a workshop for a new class I am teaching. I am slowly getting ready to come back. I need the routine. I’ve been good regarding my diabetic diet, but I need that strict regimen I put myself on. It’s hard in the summer. I am still wearing a size eight, so I can’t complain too much. I had good numbers my last visit to the doctor, but getting my blood taken every three weeks keeps me terribly honest! LOL

OK, I am out~

in the truck on the way tongue boat and Obama blogging. If you all are going to restart, then I suppose I can try.

we are on vacation this week and took a mini break to come home last night. we are headed back with the four leggeds.

What a fantastic summer. Sure, the lawn is dead and I may have skin damage from boating every weekend, but after such a shitty one last year, New Hampshire deserves the sunshine.

How about you? How was your summer?

I made it to another one.

I hope the next 365 were as great as the last.

…of a neglected blog is that the author is having a wonderful summer. That is true in my case. I’ve been extremely busy and enjoying every moment of my freedom. Actually, Monday was the first day all summer where I did not leave my house at all. It was kinda weird, but it felt so good.

We’ve been up at the boat every weekend. Oddly enough, last summer was the wettest on record and this summer is the driest. We may have had a spot thunderstorm here or there, but other than that; nadda. Our lawn is a nice shade of brown, but at least the neighbors can’t complain because theirs look worse since most face south east all day long and cook. It’s been nice at the boat this year. No.fooking.drama. You mean adults are acting like adults? Yes, for the most part. Sure some stray here and there, but marina life is like dormitory life. It’s bound to happen with people living so close with one another.

I found out when I was in Virginia that I needed to help out the principal and change my schedule. (log in to read the next blurb)

Anybody out there have a Kindle? My mother upgraded to an iPad and sent me hers. It took some getting used to, but I think I am going to like it.

What else…I had so many other things to write about and I’ve completely forgotten.

Oh well, if that’s the case, I’ve got to get going. Places to go and people to see!

I hope your summer is going well also!
