Since Dad started graveyard shift at work Sunday it hasn't seemed like a normal day. Today they (the rest of the family) went to collect rock for landscaping. Then we all went to Big J's for lunch. It was like playing hookie when Dad should've been at work and the kids mowing lawn or something. It was quite weird. But the old fashioned hamburgers were way good. The way hamburgers were meant to taste like.
I'm babbling. I'll try to minimize that. Other than Big J's not much happened. Once again Dad mentioned the words "job" and "organization." He's not going to let this go. I can't blame him; he's only being a well-meaning father. I just got to find out if it's school or not this fall. If not, ok then. Job a-hunting I will go. A couple things will come out of this at least. *ticks them off on her fingers* 1) I'll have my own place again, wherever I am. 2) I'll have another income coming in, which will hopefully allow me to save up some money for some fun times--like a trip to Ireland or Scotland. Or even a cruise. I would so love to go on a cruise before I die. 3) I just might get a social life again. Mom told me today I needed one. Apparently I've been living the life of a nun. Oh well.
Other than that I'm at a stand still on the Earth poem. I worked out the winter stanza, but then I wondered if I have been going about it wrong. Perhaps I shoulda been talking about mountains, prairies, plateaus, etc. Or are the seasons and connection to man the right way to describe Mother Earth? I don't know which thread to follow.
