So This Is July

I can't believe that it has been two weeks since Sandy died. It still feels weird to think about the fact that she'll never be around again. It didn't occur to me until this past weekend that I'd never get to eat her wonderful food again. She always made the best meals and I always ate them even when I wasn't hungry. She was such a great cook and I'm really going to miss that.

Travis and Matt went through all of her stuff this past week and got it all organized. Matt brought home a ton of boxes with stuff he wanted to keep. A lot of it is just for memories sake. A lot of it is pictures and stuff from grade school, too. It was pretty cool to go through that stuff and see Matt when he was a little kid. He had a different life before I met him, and I love learning all about it.

Onto other things, though...
I missed the Defiance fireworks last night. I'm so depressed. I think this is the first time ever that I missed them. I wanted to go back for them, but I worked until 10 pm last night. It sucked. I'm glad that I'll probably still get to go to the Findlay fireworks, though. The family is coming up on Wednesday and then we're going to go. I work until 8 that evening, but at least that still gives me time to go see them.

I can't believe that it is already July. This summer seems to be going quicker than even last summer, which I thought went incredibly fast. The only thing that I'm happy about is that I won't have to adjust to anything this fall. I'm so used to having to leave home and go back to school and be depressed for the first two weeks or so, but now I'm already home, and that is exciting. The only thing that I'm going to be worried about is Mom getting used to having no kids in her house come September. I just hope that she doesn't get depressed or shut off. I think she'll be fine, but it's going to take a while and I worry about her.

I'm excited about tomorrow. Matt and I are hopefull going to go swimming at the public pool. I haven't been swimming since two summers ago, so I'm incredibly anxious to go. I hope that we'll go see a movie, too. It's nice that we're going to both have the day off tomorrow, because that doesn't happen very often.

So anyway, I think that's enough for now. I'm in Toledo at work, so I should probably get back to doing real work.
