My Own Nothingness

Summer classes have begun and things are going well. I bought one of the books I needed for my History class, and $60.40 later, I left with a book thinner than every Harry Potter book I own. So, I'm going to read for the discussion on it tomorrow, and return it to the bookstore immediately after class having found it for half the price on Amazon. So, I bought both of the books I needed, one that would have been much more expensive than the skinny one, but was unavailable at the bookstore, for less than I bought the one, lone skinny one. Quite the bargain shopper, if I do say so myself!!

Aerobics, on the other hand, is quite the butt-kicker. I can't bargain shop my way into shape. I had my first aerobics class tonight, and by aerobics I mean a little bit of everything- kickboxing, step, weightlifting, etc. We did step tonight, and oh my, I think I am going to get my student loan's worth! Very exciting. I greatly enjoy exercising, and now I'm getting college credit for it!

The purchase of my Great Dane is on hold. The dog I was expecting to have a litter in December, ended up having a litter last month, and I am far from ready for a Great Dane, both living conditions and financial reasons. In addition, I am able to find lots of apartments that allow dogs, but they all have to be under 30 lbs, so that is somewhat discouraging. However, I know when the time is right, I will find the right apartment. If my sister would move to Augusta, that might be a little easier......

This weekend I will be traveling to KY with my lovely siblings. We are going up there so that my sister can attend the HS Graduation she would have been a part of had we not moved. Both Stevie and Luke are anxious and excited to see old friends and catch up. I, on the other hand, have a hair appointment, to fix my $10 haircut, and get my way overdue oil change for my car.

I'm also looking for a new job. I would love to have an office job, or something that has more to do with my major. The problem is, I need something that pays a little more than I make now, will work around my school schedule, and give me the hours I need to live. I've got a few things in my mind that I want to look into, but for now, I'm going to keep those to myself while they mull around in my head.

So yeah, a whole lotta nothing goin' on..............
