June is a Big and Busy Month

It's here, folks!  The month of June is going to be monumentally big and busy for me.  I wrap up training for a new full-time and fab job, as well as packing up my stuff to move into a new place.  It looks like the writing gigs are steadily rolling in, too, with some new assignments that look to be fun to do.

So, when do I sleep?  Still fitting that into my schedule, but it'll be there.  Perhaps just a wee bit less than what I've had in the past.  That's okay.  I have plans on managing that better, too.  Just not in the next three weeks.  

The summertime rain pattern has hit Central Florida, which means some great storms.  In case you didn't know, I love them!  I've already seen some good light and sound shows out of the early boomers.  Dig it!

In preparation of moving, I've started hitting the thrift shops and some rummage sales.  I have a few things left to get for my kitchen, but I've stocked it so far for under $50.  I'll probably spend about another $30 to finish that room off for now.  Picked up a cool looking entertainment unit for $10 (has a broken drawer, but nothing some wood glue can't fix...once I find a piece of drawer bottom to attach first).  And, I bought a refurbished flat screen TV for dirt cheap on Yugster.  I'm pretty excited about that, since it's going to soon be transitioned into my desk monitor after I pick up a cheaply priced (but blinged-out) desktop computer.  Yup, this girl is going to have a 29-inch monitor!  Why?  Well, why not?

I have about three more weeks living here, and I'm both excited and still a little sad that things didn't work out for us.  I don't blame anyone but myself for the breakup.  I'm not saying that I did anything wrong, although I'm sure I did along the way.  I mostly blame myself for repeating patterns and not learning my lesson the first time.  At least I'm still young enough *cough*cough* to realize it NOW, and make better choices for myself.  I don't believe in having a "last chance in life" as someone once said to me in my youth.  Life is full of chances, but you have to be willing to take them.  I am thankful that I have enough of my father's DNA in me to have the guts to take those chances.  Yeah, he was sort of a d-bag, but I'd like to think that I'm taking the principles of that characteristic and using it for good, not bad.  It's all a choice, folks.

Is June looking to be a busy one for you, too?  Tell me in the comments!  I love to hear about the life changes and journeys that others go through, as well.
