Well, okay so I'm not keeping up

As usual I have been lost in time and space, doing my own thing, which apparently does not include blogging. Perhaps its because I am zombie-like tired, although I can't think of what has changed to make me even more tired than usual. In fact I have been too tired to even read. I brought home an Express Book last Friday...and am still reading it. Not that its boring, but I just keep falling asleep.

If I were going to find something to blog about I guess I would lament the passing of my PC's hard drive at work. For although I have no data on it (all that is safe--I hope--on the server), it had my "stuff" on it: desktop backgrounds, Netscape (and favorites), all my passwords, my Outlook calendar reminders all set up....etc. I'm trying to look at it as a fresh start, but I'm mentally anguished by starting over. I guess its the same nagging fear I have about all fresh starts. BTW, that reminds me, I wonder if Miss A. really would fire Jason so she could hire me? ;)

Since my last blog entry I have....

Been busy with:
Doing crafts with young children at VBS
Working VERY busy ref desk at work
Trying to clean house (trying is the operative word here)
Buying air conditioners--and trying to keep cool (here too)
Going to the airport
Reading Harry Potter
Going to Renaissance Faire
Grocery shopping (much needed)
Visiting Niagara Falls
Finally getting back to the pool and my Aqua Basics class (after 3 weeks without it)

Missed doing:
Getting enough sleep
Reading the newspaper--or listening to news
Computer games and email stuff
Blogging regularly

*Sigh* Where to begin?

Ten days on the road, and home again to a week of LONG days with VBS mornings, and work (lots of busy ref hours) afternoons or eves ( of course with more VBS prep squeezed in.) Every year we go on vacation the week before I need to do crafts with 150 or more kids. I know its crazy but I just can't quit (yet). I guess I'm not quite out of ideas.
Our trip started with a great day at Cedar Point. The weather had cooled enough to be tolerable, especially with the nice lake breeze, (and the breeze of riding a coaster at 70 miles an hour). And my horrible fear of crowds was unfounded. There was (by CP standards) no one there. We walked on to virtually every ride. And even the newest rides had merely a 20 minute wait (compared to 2 hours on a crowded day). Which meant we could easily ride Top Thrill Dragster more than once, ride every coaster in the park-- except the one they had closed :( -- and, best of all, we went back to the hotel for an afternoon nap and still got to do all this. So despite my original reluctance to go, this was definitely worth the effort!
Trip log to be continued...but the rest of today beckons...
