Continual State of Becoming

So summer is moving right along. It seems that at this rate, December will be here in no time (as will graduation). I can hardly wait! In the meantime I'm trying to keep myself busy. Summer classes are doing a good job at that, but I'm also trying to do what I usually do in spring cleaning, but never got around to this year. I had big plans for today, but I did something stupid that has kinda hampered that. My sister Elizabeth is over sealing our deck for us today.

Xanadu on Broadway !! How crazy is that?!? Last night my sister Sarah came over to pick up some stuff she had left behind after house sitting for us.

Xanadu your neon lights will shine For YOU XANADUUUUU! (it's time to break out the leg warmers and roller skates)
