So, yeah, um, it's been a minute.
But I have the day off!
This is my first full day off since the 4th of July. I took three classes over the summer, so I was in school all day twice a week, and then worked the other 5 days. WOW am I thankful for today.
So, The New Things:
Straight A's in summer classes!
Starting my physical therapist assistant classes in 3 weeks!
We are taking a kick-ass (pun intended) self-defense/martial arts class. We just got our yellow belts a couple of weeks ago to become official students. Look out, world!
We have had a makeshift garden this summer. It's been difficult to make sure everything gets the right amount of water and sun, as our "yard" is surrounded by trees and it seems like the sun's angle changes weekly. But we have plenty of rosemary, mint, oregano, and basil, our tomato plants have lots of tiny green tomatoes on them, and our one ground cherry plant has been producing admirably. Still, can't wait to have a real garden; all of our plants are either sitting on the concrete in pots or hanging off the privacy fence in tote bags. Some plants like this arrangement better than others!
And now, for the photos--
For all three of you who read these posts, you might remember when I posted about redoing our dresser. It's been done for months. Here, finally, is a picture.

On the wall I added two wooden crates that I stained and painted. Advice: Don't stain and paint crates. Either do all stain, or all paint. Talk about a headache! :-p
Next project is turning these into something amazing:
And it's going to happen in the next 2 weeks during my fabulous days off. Huzzah! Stay tuned!
