Hellooooooooo Out There!

I know, I know, it's been forever since I last posted and I'm sure you all have been dying of anticipation for my next blog post. ;-) I apologize.

But honestly, I haven't had two seconds put together! It's amazing how quickly time can go by when you're working. Already I've been home a month and in some ways I feel like I never left. Life goes on at McD's the same as always - crazy, busy, stressful and yet somehow retaining an element of fun, creativity and adventure. It helps that I've rekindled some old friendships from last summer and made a few new ones as well.

However, for the time being, I've asked to cut back on my hours so I can focus on practicing piano and writing scholarship essays. I tried working full time and still keeping up with piano and such, but that was just definitely not happening. It's a bit of a risk, but I think a safer one than going an entire summer without practicing. Let's hope those essays come through! (Loving to write has to come in handy sometime, right?)

Besides practicing and writing, I'm also trying to get in my 45 volunteer hours before I go back to school. If you know of anything I can do to earn them, let me know! :)

It's raining here at my little house in the woods. The sky is dark and stormy and I'm inside, cuddled in my blue and yellow rag quilt with a hot cup of Constant Comment tea. If you don't know what Constant Comment tea is, you should try it. But now I'm just rambling.

I don't have any pictures to post of me or my family or stuff around me today. And I'm too lazy to take one. But I saw the coolest kitchen ever the other day, and as this is kind of random post, it should fit on here perfectly. I saw it and fell in love and said to myself, "Self, I would very much like to have a kitchen like that someday." So I pinned it.




I mean, is that not fab?

Anyway, hope you all are enjoying your summer and staying well and happy! Adios!
