Summer sucks

Summers are in no way relaxing for me. I can't wait til fall. Let me recap my month.

Went back to work after the forced vaccation, at least I got paid.
It has been so busy at the rest area I have had hardly enough time to check work email and traffic let alone my email.
I got highspeed internet at home but have used it maybe twice cause I am never home.
Jack is over in the big pen so it is even farther to go feed him. He keeps stealing milk from the does too so he isn't always hungry when I try to feed him.
Working at camp whenever I am not at the rest area but since I am just working off rent, I am not getting paid with cash.
Haven't done anything with bill in weeks because we are both so busy that even when he is here we don't see each other much.
attempted to make a costume for otakon but only managed the mask.

July sucked. and August doesn't look too much better. Though I do have otakon and bill and I are going to try to go to the shore one day... ha like that is going to actually happen.

I can't wait til september.

Forced Vaccation

Well I'm out of work. Saturday they kicked us all out of the welcome center and told us to go home. So I am on a forced vaccation of sorts, though without any pay. It sucks. I got stuff done around my house but i am bored. i really love my job and I miss it.

Jack is doing well, getting really big. He is full of mud right now because of all the rain we've had and his pointy little feet. He doesn't need the paper towel treatment anymore (thank goodness) and is down to three feedings a day with plenty of supplemental brush and leaves and clover and such. I spent the morning trying to cover some of the worst muck with straw and hay. Of course Jack thought that it all tasted wonderful, including my jeans. It helped a little but the ground is just so wet. Hopefully he will lay in the straw and not in the mud but then you never know.

I got an AC unit for my house yesterday. Not sure if it will install properly in my window though. It is just a little unit but anything is better than nothing. And of course, today it is cool, dry, and breezy so I don't even need it. Feh.
