why everyone elses’ blogs seem more interesting than mine, i’m not sure….
or pherhaps it's just me.
we're not going anywhere today, which is fine by me. we might get the car back tonight, but otherwise...
so, i looked at the weather and it's 24 degrees over here. it might get up to 27. *whistles* yeah, too bad i can't actually whistle. so i took emma outside, and i let her help me with the dishes (i get lunch duty over here, and back home i do all of it). we made lemonade with real lemons. it's probably the best lemonade i've ever had.
earlier, i listened to a few cds that had songs on them that remind me of summer. i love summer. it's definitely my favorite time of year. spring is a close second, then fall, then winter. winter can be okay at times but i like warm weather way better. there's a nice breeze today and it's slightly warm. it's very nice. i'm hoping it doesn't snow again until next winter. i feel a little bad about saying that because i aslo hate the whole, you know, global warming thing. but i can't wait for summer. the best thing is, we'll be in the new house by then. and it's gorgeous here in the summer, so i can't wait for that. it's going to be awesome.
what i also can't wait for is, well, emma to be big enough to go without her carseat. i know i didn't have one when i was 7 or so. yeah, emma's only 6, but i think i remember alot of things from then. the reason is because there's not alot of room in the backseat of the car - and let's just say, i'm not a touchy-feely kind of person. i actually try to avoid contact unless it's emma or i want to give someone a hug.
i hope we get to drive (very slowly) by our new, awesome house. i bet it looks better when all the snow is gone. i want to look and wander around the yard, too. just to get the lay of the land.
i'll probably post here alot this week. i didn't bring any books (other than notebooks for ideas for stories or other things, and a latin textbook from 1926), or the laptop (what i write stories on). i just brought the latin stuff, notebooks, and some half-finished thing i'm trying to knit. a funny story, actually, because i started out with maybe 8 stitches and somehow i added about 12 stitches. i really don't know how it happened. but now that i have looser stitches (they used to be way too tight) and i don't add more stitches in between or anything. i'll be sure to take a picture sometime.
