Too Busy to Say Much...I Think

As you may have noticed, I haven't really been blogging here much. Sure there were things that have gone on in the last couple of months I could've talked about such as the Casey Anthony trial, the demise of Amy Winehouse, the trend of some restaurants and other public places in becoming child-free zones, or even something along the lines of the heat wave that has been occuring in my hometown.Yet, I haven't blogged here much since May 21, the predicted Judgement Day, came and when without incident (at least where I live anyway).
It's not that I would not have had anything to say about any of the above subjects. Rather, I think it's been because I've just been so busy. As of June, I started making it my business to accomplish certain things every day, such as spending some time (more specifically fifteen minutes) editing each of my three novels that I have on my computer and reading a chapter of whatever book I've been reading. On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, I still do my volunteer work at a local thrift store. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I often have job applications to pick up and/or drop off, cans and bottles to take over to the college campus recycling bins, surveys to fill out in hopes of earning some cash (especially since I STILL have yet to find a job), laundry to do on one of those days, and depending on time, cleaning out one of my inboxes.  Then evening will roll around, and I'm lucky if I can get myself to do something besides hang around Facebook.

On top of that, I have recently re-connected with an old boyfriend from high school. Ever since he accepted my friend request on Facebook, he and I have chatted a few times. That's taken a couple of hours at a time usually, and this coming Thursday we're planning on getting together in person for the first time since we had broken up (which was a little over eight years ago).  Where things between us will go from there has yet to be seen.

Maybe things will get less hectic for me further down the road. Or maybe I need to get myself motivated to say more here. Whatever the case, I just know I haven't said much here latey, but I really ought to try harder to keep this blog updated so that it doesn't go cold.
