Unpredictable




Wow I can't believe that summer vacation is almost over! I haven't done much of anything productive this summer, and I've loved every moment of it. I did just get back from a trip across Wyoming into South Dakota with my brother Curt. We decided to try and save a little money so we camped out at every KOA between here and Rapid City and all I can say is; boy I'm tired of sleeping in tents! I remember camping being a lot more fun when I was a little kid. It was really a great trip though! We were able to see Sacajawea's grave in Fort Washakie WY which was actually one of my favorite parts of the trip. We also went to Devil's Tower, Thermopolis, and Mount Rushmore. AWESOME! Then about two days after we got home I went to La Grande, OR with the family for my cousin Tennille's wedding and a family reunion. It was great to see and catch up with family, but I am so happy to be home again, sleeping in my own bed!
Besides that I've done a lot of thinking this summer and I've decided that I am destined to wander aimlessly throughout my life, not knowing exactly what I want to do. In other words I'm not going back to school this semester, part of the reason being that I have no money left for school, but also because I don't know if I want to go back into the health care field. At any rate I'm taking this semester off to make a little money and try to figure out exactly what I should focus my efforts on. I'm trying to finish up my book before the end of the summer, and then I will try to get it published. I've got some ideas for some new books but I want to finish this first one before I get to work on the others. I love writing, but unfortunately I have no experience and don't know if I have the talent to make it more than a hobby. Too bad other people besides me have to like what I write :) So that's the scoop for any of you that were wondering. Maybe someday I'll figure things out!
Anyways now that I'm not heading back to school I am soooo looking forward to Autumn which is my favorite time of the year!! Bring on the fall colors baby!
