I want to get off... Preferably at some place where the sun is shining, and there's a cool breeze, and there's a beach that's quiet and clean. Can I please go there?
there is so much going on in my life that I don't even know where to begin. I don't think I can do a proper update - it would take too long and it would be about six pages of reading. so this is just an update to let everyone know that I'm alive, but I might not be able to post much, or even reply to your posts or emails much, for the next couple of weeks. in a nutshell here's what's happening:
* Tomorrow I'm starting my fall courses in the paralegal program. I have to get my textbooks, take a test that's required for admission (supposedly something that's just to test critical thinking skills), write a statement of purpose for the program coordinator, and attend two courses (Tuesday and Thursday after work). Then if there's homework or reading assignments, I'll be doing those over the weekend.
* My husband's computer died. So now we are both trying to do our internet stuff at night, and fighting over the computer. I can still do occasional posting and checking emails from work, but it's hard. I will probably be limited to an hour a night for awhile.
* Barring any unforeseen problems, we will probably be taking a trip to the beach in Michigan next weekend and staying overnight - either Saturday or Sunday night (as next Monday is Labor Day and we both have a holiday). M is getting his new wetsuit and needs to test out his new board once again. Plus we need to get away.
* My mom is coming to visit me from the 9th to the 12th. I will be taking a couple days off of work and just spending quality time. She's coming on her way back from her high school reunion (she graduated sometime in the '50s). I am so excited to see her!
Other than this, my september is also full of doctor's appointments and dentist appointments for me and Masahiko. So it's just a busy time overall.
If you don't see me around, that's why. I hope that things slow down in October, but with my coursework, it will still be hectic.
If I catch any free time this week, I will try to post again. I have movie reviews, pictures that I STILL haven't uploaded from my camera, and other stuff. For now, I still have to do some work, go grocery shopping, go to pick up M's x-rays from the dentist office and maybe get my watch fixed at Walmart. *whew*
I vaguely remember a time in my life when I wasn't busy. that was so nice!

We'll still be here when you have some breathing room! (And sharing a computer is HARD when you're used to each having your own. O_O You have my sympathies there for sure! ;) )
I'll be looking forward to seeing you around whenever you can make it! Just try to take it easy and not stress too much! *big hugs!* ♥♥♥!!!

I've been kinda/sorta away from LJ for about a week or so now, just basically posting for people's birthdays and things like that. There's been a lot of stress with not one but several members of my close family struggling with very serious illnesses of late and that's been just making everything hard. *frustrated sigh* It just kinda feels like life's been pounding on my head lately!
But you know what makes me feel better? All of the things that people made me for my birthday, both the icons and the bigger things! Like take my "I <3 Aislynn" icon... It just makes me feel like somebody cares! *hugs*
Hopefully we'll be able to stay in a little better touch in the future when things calm down for us both! *more hugs!* ♥♥♥!!!

I was so sorry to hear about your family members being ill and all that stress and frustration. I really hope that things are better now. as you can see, I'm so behind on LJ and haven't really caught up on everyone's posts and lives. but I'm always around- even if I'm behind:)
I'm so happy that you are still always using the icon I made. I felt it was so silly, but if you like it, I'm so thrilled!!! I do care - a lot - about you and all my friends! you guys make my life so much better!
take care, sweetie and I'll try to get to your posts soon!
*hugs tight*
