August is in 5 days...eekk

My how time really does fly.  It seems like summer just started and now it is practically over!  Now I know that here in San Diego sunshine lasts well into the Fall but even though it's sunny the atmosphere definitely turns "Fall-ish".  The store decor changes to the holidays, school is back in session and the fall clothes starts appearing.  What happened to the summer?  Where did it go?  What did I do?  The answer is NOWHERE and NOTHING!  Well that's not entirely true, I worked on many weddings, celebrated the 4th of July, participated in pre-Wedding activities with Lisa and her friends but all in all no "typical" summer activities.  I would say I have 4 weeks to make the most of these last few days of summer but I have endless weddings from now until November.  What to do, what to do?!?!?! 

Shall I plan a early week camping trip with just me and the hubs?  No, camping is so much more fun with a group.  How about some mid-week bonfires?  None of my friends like to hang out during the week.  What about the beach?  I took a vow to not get to much sun exposure this year to ward off aging skin damage!  Am I in that "glass half empty" mood again?  I DEFINITELY think so!

I long for a trip...it keeps coming up in my mind and I just can't push it away.  My BFF Rachel and her family took 2 weeks to visit Tahoe, San Fran and Napa...my sister is in Portland and part of Canada for a week...we even have family here from TX on their vacation.  No vacation for me :(.  Where would I go you ask?  Hmm, Hawaii, Caribbean, Spain, Scotland (we were suppossed to go to Scotland for the World Championships with Jacy in 2 weeks but I have 2 weddings that weekend, so sad), Ireland, Mexico, Napa, I don't care I just want to go somewhere!

Alright enough pity party, no travel this year but we did make a commitment to go to Germany next September NO MATTER WHAT!  I have that to look forward to I guess :). 

Thanks for letting me vent as always, for those 5 of you that actually read this, I really appreciate it ;).

P.S.  here are 2 cute pictures of my Maddy who doesn't get nearly enough blog time...
