Currently, vol 17.

Happy Sunday and Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there. I am fortunate to know my father, but I don't have a good relationship with him due to my parents divorce when I was very young. We talk, but I do not have a father daughter relationship with him. In some ways, I envy others relationships with their dads, but then I remember that my Grandpa was my "Dad", and he was taken from me too early. I love and miss him dearly. This week has been quick, and uneventful which is fine by me! I talked to a manager at a local Starbucks, and she encouraged me to apply for a Barista position there. So, I might be able to put my mini-barista skills from Panera to use at a real coffee house!

Here are a couple of pics from my week:

So here is what is going on currently:

reading and catching up on blogs! This is the story of my life. I want to have more time to just sit at Starbucks, blog, and read blogs. 
writing in my journal hopefully. I really like to document my thoughts and emotions, and I forget about this a lot while in school and when I'm on break. I want to remember the good, the bad, and the ugly about my life 20 years from now. 
thinking my every growing list of supplies, fees, books, certification, and physical stuff I need to get before going back to school in the fall. This is going to be a very economically draining semester for my checkbook. (I do take personal checks, but the amount must have more than 6 zeros :) Jk) 
smelling the yummy potatoes and steaks grilling outside my window right now! 
wishing for a peaceful nights sleep compared to last night. I fell asleep around 1:30 (I don't know why it took so long), and I had to get up at 5 so I could be to work by 5:45 to open Panera.  
hoping to see a small number on the scale this week and every week
wearing a tank and running shorts. (same this week too)
loving the warmer weather we're having today. (same)
wanting to repaint my toes. They look terrible. It is the outgrown look that is too outgrown for the public eye.    
needing to get up and start working cooking the corn on the cob. 
feeling exhausted from work.
clicking the exit in the top right corner after the publish button. Time to chow!

Have a great week!
