Oops, my bad.

I have not been posting regularly like I should. I think I promised at least twice a week and in the last few weeks I have failed quite miserably at that. I could tell you that I was super busy with final projects, research papers and studying for finals - but that really isn't a good excuse since I like to write instead of doing all those things. I should have taken a little bit of time to write something up during the end of the semester but I didn't. 

Anyways, finals week went pretty good. Even though not all of my grades are up online, I'm pretty sure that I did pretty well in all of my classes. Didn't make the Dean's List but I'm not on academic probation either. I really enjoyed this past semester, I'm going to miss it. I LOVED going to Writing Fiction, it always got me motivated to write something whether it turned out to be a few pages long or just a few paragraphs. 

I am working on August. It's going slow but I am working on it. I have a few scenes written up and some other things but none of it is really strung together yet. I'll post some snip-its as I see fit. If I don't get much up from that story, I'll work on some other things to keep my readers entertained. Well, hopefully. 

The past few weeks have been a little crazy.

My wiper motor went out a few weeks ago so I had been driving with out wipers for a few weeks in the snow. It was only troublesome every now and then. My wonderfully amazing boyfriend and his dad replaced my wiper motor for me so now I have working wipers. It is a Christmas "miracle." The greatest part was that it only cost me $30.47. I almost broke down and got it fixed in Duluth for four times as much because I am a sissy. Good thing my boyfriend talked me out of it. 

I have been getting more hours at the bookstore lately - kind of stressful with classwork and trying to have a life other than school and work. Don't get me wrong, I do enjoy work (as well as the paychecks) but I'd like to have some ME time. ME time usually involves my roommates too since I don't have many single-person hobbies. I should work on that. I like to knit but I am not very good at it - I can only finish scarves. 

I've taken some pictures in the past few weeks that I'll share once I find my camera cord.

Tootles!
