1/2 over

so my summer vacation has reached the halfway mark. what have i accomplished? well, been spending most of my energy dealing with the recent changes in my life-the emotional aspect, the logistics. i know i've been all vague about this since my "peace and quiet" post. i just don't wanna get into specifics on here. i am willing to share, though, that i never thought things were going to play out the way they have and have tried everything i know to "get back on track". but, the bottom line is that no matter how much you want something, you only have control over yourself.

of course i've been spending mega-quality time with tay doing many things (movies, swimming, arts and crafts, playdates, playing barbies, etc)! i have also gotten quite a few pages done in taylor's disney world scrapbook. i am rockin' and rollin'! worked on some stuff for school. summer vacation's always a good time to tweak, improve or create things for the classroom/curriculum. always thinking of ways to make my classroom run more efficiently, be more productive and make things "funner" for the kids. (i know, i know...what's up with the grammar?!?!) it's also been a movie-goin' kind of summer. saw "license to wed" on thursday-it had its funny parts. finished my first book of the summer this morning @ 2am. it's one of cara lockwood's newer books, i did (but i wouldn't now). it's a sequel to her first one, i do (but i don't). seriously found myself cracking up in the last few pages. one of the secondary characters was a goofball and had some awesome lines. i kept picturing the dude (seth) from the movie "knocked up". started a new book but having trouble sticking with it. i've put it down a couple of times now...maybe if i just get over the little hump...

oh, so here's something i totally wanted to share. started watching the tv show burn notice on usa. the first couple of times i saw the promos for it i was like, "naaah...don't think so" but then the song from promo haunted me and i found myself tuning into the pilot. glad i did. it's a pretty good show. he's so slick, makes you wanna become a spy just to be able to turn a cheap cell phone into a listening device. genius. love love *love* the voice-overs and the humor. you should try to catch it if you can. here's the song from the promo that had me humming it for several days!
