So I'm back from camping, and both of the prepetory weekends for encampment ((CAP)) are done, and all three of my sibs are gone off to summer camp for a week. So... I am very bored. I'll be doing odd things around the house just to keep from vegetating, no doubt.

Life's good though. Nice and relaxed right now, maybe a bit too relaxed but that won't last long once the day gets going. It's humid. Very humid, and hot. *groan* And it's not even sunny! It's cloudy and hot and humid! *sigh* And it's still awesome to me.

Okay, so I didn't get to fly because of a massive rainstorm that came through, but I did make it to my promo. ceremony. Yay, I'm offically a c/Capt in CAP now!!! WHOOO! It only took four years.

Camping tomorrow!!! Which means lots of packing and cooking today. *groan*  Ten days of no cellphones, minimal electricity, fire for warmth; swimming, hiking, biking, canoing, a movie, late nights and regular to late mornings. The whole place to ourselves. It's gonna be awesome.

It also means that I won't be able to play on my computer for the that long!! *cries*  I guess I get over it after the first day or so.

So the actual promotion ceremony is Wednesday, along with my second flight in glass cockpit Cessna 182*squeeeeeee*.

And our annual camping trip is at the end of the week. Thank goodness the campsite is still open. There was a good chance a few months ago that it would be closed down for the summer. And as soon as I get back from camping I have another weekend away from home getting ready for the 2010 NYWg Encampment!! So much fun!!

But at least I won't have to try hard to keep myself busy. ...I really wish I could find a job. Guess I'll just have to pray about that.

Oh, thank good ness it's finally stopped raining. It rain on and off for like three days straight, with mostly on periods. It's hard to do things outside when it's raining like that...unless you really really like wet and mud, which I don't.

Going flying today! YAY!! Hopefully the cloud cover won't give us any problems. *crosses fingers*

Camping trip in one week, along with my birthday!! It's going to be so much fun. All the hiking and swimming and canoeing and biking and campfire meals, AW! It's the best.

Yay, I got all my job applications in...finally!!  That took way too long. Last week I got three applications, took them home, filled them out and put them in my filing cabinet so I wouldn't loose them. A few days later I go back to the cabinet, turn the thing inside out, and no applications.

So I had to go back and get new ones. Did that Sunday afternoon.  And finally got them turned in yesterday morning, in the pouring rain.

17 days, 16 days!!

God Bless

IT'S JUUUNE!!! Only 18 days until my birthday, and only 17 days until Toy Story 3 come out in theaters!!

I made a bondfire last night. My first one in a really long time, so I was very happy with it. *big grin* Thank goodness the storm held off long enough last night, so that we were able to do smores, and just hang out for a little while.  Yeah, we had a massive storm last night. Thunder, lightning, pouring rain, no sleep, the whole nine yards. And it's supposed to rain all day today too, but I'm not seeing anything yet so maybe we'll catch a but ya never know.

God Bless,
