No one likes a complaier, but everyone likes to complain, right? I'm certainly guilty of it, and I must say after I throw myself a good old fashioned pity party (fully equiped with Peanut M&Ms and Diet Coke) and I've recieved my fill of pity from anyone in earshot, I feel better and move on. So, if your one of those people who are anti-negativity, only put positive energy into the universe, and live The Secret like it's "The Good Book," you may want to stop reading now. I'll give you fair warning before, that this post all about "Our Family Vacation that Wasn't," "How Summer is now my Least Favorite Season," and how I manage to kill petunia's every year.

Summer...My Least Favorite Season

So, this summer like every summer of our married lives, has been filled with climbing temperatures, windows that don't open, and of course summer college courses. Brian once again was so ambitious and motivated at the beginning of the summer and took an accelerated course. It was 7 weeks of pure misery, but he made it through with flying colors! He is still persevering through his other class and has two weeks left. However, the poor guy is running out of fuel. He's getting burned out, and we're not sure his brain can take any more information. It's just seconds away from overloading, so if you see him stumbling around on the streets like the undead while muttering phrases like, "Da...ta....base con..figure...ation,"  just give him a Mt. Dew and it should recharge his batteries enough so that he can stumble back home.

Because Weber State so effectively sucks the life out of my husband, (and my bank accounts) every summer, I'm afraid the Summer season no longer holds those feelings of carefree fun that it once held when I was younger. It's now just busy, busy, busy. Brian is always tied down with classes, so vacations are few and far between, and since we are paying tuition as we go, well that does not leave much room in the budget for many fun activities. Hence why Summer is now my least favorite season. All is not lost though, Fall will be here shortly and that is when Brian takes a break and we can have some family fun as the temperatures cool off.
