some good things

Katy gets here tomorrow! With Mom and Dad and Chester!

I've been reuniting with boys from freshman year!

I'm all moved in and almost all unpacked!

My friends from all aspects of my life are coinciding!

Ashley and I reorganized/cleaned the kitchen and living room!

I have new carpet and couches!

At long last, I'm dating Kyle Vaughn!

I miss Lucy

I think about her all the time. I had a dream about her the other night--she was like 2 or 3, and was an exact image of me when I was that age. It made me cry a lot for some reason. I'm really sad that I'm missing out on so many months of growing up. She rolls over now! I'm so sad to miss it. And Christy's pictures of Lucy in her new Jumperoo were so adorable--more tears were shed. I wish there was a way for Lucy to come visit me. I got so used to having a baby around.

Summer's over! Almost. So close. Can't wait. AHHH long week.

Saturday was my last day at Aegis. I'm glad it's over, but I'll miss some people (especially Peggy) and I know that it was good for me. And not JUST because it boosted my self-esteem. I did something hard that I originally hated, which usually I avoid. I'm really good at cleaning now. I made lots of money. I learned how to be really nice to disagreeable people who are mean in response. I got to help people, and love old people even though they're scary sometimes.

I read so many books this summer. And took a lot of baths. I will miss both those things in Provo. Plus I'll miss Lucy. She's going to be so grown up when I see her again. I don't like the idea of saying goodbye to her.

I thought this summer was going to be the bleakest and most despair-ridden 4 months of my life. Luckily, it was 1 terrible month, 2 months of progressing hope and excitement, and now the final month(ish) will be joyful in Provo! I can't imagine what (who) caused the change.

So, I leave in 4 days. My paper chain is SHORT.

Lucy's Performance

My favorite song from Mom's kindergarten class. Lucy's really good at it.
