Oh dear sweet internet

How do I love thee...... I am currently sitting in the college cafe. I have finished my imperative homework, eaten a delicious bowl of chicken flourentine soup, and actually have about 20 min to "spare". What shall I do? I think it's about time I reintroduce myself to my lovely blogosphere.

Hi. My name is Julie. And I am a unwilling recovering blogoholic, forced into rehab due to impossible time restrictions. But today I have fallin' off the wagon.

So much has gone on in my life these past many many many weeks, I don't even know where to start. I guess I'll start with school. I am taking two online courses this summer, fairly simple concepts, but require lots of reading. Intro to Psych and Intro to Soc. BUT I am also dead in the middle of Microbiology. When I originally signed up for it, it was listed as a full summer course, as to not be accelerated......but low and behold I was deceived. 15 week course smooshed into 7. So I am drowning in this class. Trying so, so hard, but just barely squeaking by. The teacher is great, which helps, but the information is difficult. I am really trying to take it all in stride. I can only do the best that I can do.

On a much happier note, I did get my garden planted a few weeks ago. The whole encounter with Jen and the rototiller was one for the memory books. But I finally did get my plants in the ground. I am very excited to see how it will turn out in the end. I will post some pictures soon.
I have also been able to see my friends in NH a few times over these last few weeks. I am so happy when I'm in NH. I really hope I end up back there one day. I know Jen and I both feel that way about it. There is just something about New Hampshire. Live Free or Die man.

Things on the Joe front have been quiet as well. Don't really even have anything to report. He has been cooperative. Taking the kids one of my class nights, and being very consistent with them on the weekends. He even bought them a four-wheeler. My daughter is now doing stunts on it. Yep, that's right, stunts. You know the lady at the circus who does all sorts of tricks while riding a horse? That's Lilac, but transfer it to a mini 4-wheeler at 20mph. Note to self: Force the father to buy her full body armour.

Glad to see you all again. Thanks for the patience.
