Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket

I think I

I think I am kinda going to retire from the chatterbox for a little this summer. Let me explain:

I just spent 8 days at a camp, an exhausting one, then spent four days at home before taking a three hour drive to another city and appending a week there to help for 6 hours each day in the park, then this week I will be in another city helping out at a Vacation Bible School.

Phew.

Also,I'm only retiring from the CaC, PP, DtE, BaB, but not Inkwell. I might check the others occasionally, but not really type unless something is addressed to me. If you need to contact me, go to the Inkwell roleplay, "EVIL'S REVENGE."

That is where I will be! 

I also have math to finish and flute to play, so, yay!

Bleh.

I'm so flipping exhausted.

back to the Chirp at Cricket

Crud muffins. That's disappointing. But I understand being completely exhausted

Oh boy you sound busy! But never forget to make time to write.

I have swim team practice every weekday morning, so I have to get up at the crack of dawn to get to the pool by seven thirty, then I have a variety of chores including checking on the chicks while they run free-range, feeding them and cleaning their house, watering the blueberies, and sometimes working in the garden, not to mention scrubbing fresh fingerling potatos and cutting up karabi. Oh, and I have swim meets twice a week that send me to bed late so that I'm tired for practice the next morning. But I still find time to do write :)

Okay okay, I love all of that stuff (except getting up early ;) and you sound so much more busier than me. I'm about to get busy though! I'm probably going to get braces soon, and if I do get a part in The Music Man, I'll have rehearsals from July 'til September. And, oh goodness, school starts then. AHHHHH!! But I'm thinking ahead. 

Try to get some relaxing in that busy schedule of yours. Try learning to crochet while listening to your favorite audiobook. It's quite relaxing. Unless, of course, you're listening to Artemis Fowl and the yarn is sitting forgotten at your feet and your ear is pressed against the speaker.

Have a great summer! And I totally understand being exhausted. I usually am during school season.

That's perfectly understandable.

I'm soon going to get pretty busy myself, once my dance lessons start...a tap, a ballet, and a jazz per week! I'm not very fond of dancing...but I really really want to take dance classes, because I'm in Vocal and Acting at the theatre academy I go to, but not dance, and I've gotten callbacks to shows our local theatre (which is a HUGE organization) does, but have not been able to make it into a show yet because those callbacks are dance callbacks, and dancing is NOT my strong suit. (Wow, big-time run-on sentence there...)

Also, I want to work on some stories I started outside of the CB, to submit them to a magazine...so I'll probably end up doing a similar thing like you are, Katydid...

Well, I'll miss you Katy. But I'm so glad you are staying on EVIL's revenge! Thank goodness!!!! I loved what you wrote on your last post- it was really good! 

My summer consistes of gymnastics, gymnastics, gymnastics, and more gymnastics! I'm doing sixteen hours a week! Monday, tuesday, thursday, friday, for four hours each! I start at eight and end at twelve! I'm also reading a lot! GUESS WHAT??!! I found a little lending library near Duddlehiemer and my house! Its one of those little wooden structures that you can leave used books in and take out new ones that you haven't read yet! I love it!
