I was pointed out that it may be a special summer for me and my kids before my oldest goes off to college in the fall. And maybe fall time will be my better luck for finding a job. Hopefully. It's been hard not having one and only being able to call places to see if there is a chance they are hiring.
I'm faced with being an older adult against the college kids. Not that I'm old but I'm not a young kid out of high school.
Today, was a bit of traveling for me. I'm at my kids house for today and am going to miss them for a long weekend as they are headed to Maine for a camping trip. I think that I may take in a movie and treat myself to Tammy. I heard it was really funny.
I treated myself to a sausage biscuit today and got to talk with one of my son's friends who works at MacDonald's.
I'm going to work some more on a blue knitted scarf. Boucle yarn. It's probably halfway done and I checked with my daughter to see if she would want it. It would be an extra scarf for her.
I've got my next knitting project lined up. I'm thinking of a pink skirt for me made out of some lightweight rayon yarn.
I'm praying that next summer I have a job that is going to take up my time. I need to find something and it's hard when it's taking so long to find something.
I'm doing some more drawing as well. In a sketchbook primarily making paper doll heads. Just sketches for the most part.
My cats left me a wet hairball surprise a few nights ago. I got up to get them their early morning food and when I got back in the bed I felt something wet. Turning on the light I knew what it was immediately. Better the sheets than on the carpet. It's harder to get it out of the carpet.
I do not know which cat is doing it but one of them is guilty as hell.
My other son has a birthday next week. And on Monday I got treated to a double feature of Harry Potter the last two parts of it. Deathly Hallows.
That was a fun day.
Enjoying my summer with my kids.
