I cut my hair. It is extremely short now and I love it. That long hair of mine was about to drive me insane. I'd put up a picture but those are all on the other computer which has decided to be very uncooperative by shutting its self off all of its own accord. So I'll have to post those another day. It is so nice to no longer have hair that makes me want to commit unspeakable crimes followed up by shaving my head.
We have a move in day (drum roll please): May 25. One week away. Unbelievable.

Here Fishy, Fishy, Fishy
Oh dear, it's been a terribly long time since I last posted.
School is out and has been since April 9th and I nave been home since the 11th of that same month.
The most exciting thing that has happened (and which has not been given a full account of on the other blog as very little could top the wind turbine going up) is that we purchased fishing rods last week and I have gone fishing now twice in our pond. And I have caught fish! Mostly smallish largemouth bass but one other fish which was either a crappie or a bluegill. I have also purchased myself a fillet knife (which I had to show ID in order to purchase which threw me for a loop, I've never had to show ID in order to purchase something). So I am all ready to gut my first fish, I just need to get out there and catch me some dinner I guess! I'm not much of a fan of the "catch and release" style of fishing and don't want to do that too much any more. I want to gut and eat my fish. Yummy! I hope I have the stomach for it!
We are also beginning to pack. When I say 'we' I mean Mom as SD is away at her new job bringing us home the bacon and I am here on the Internet desperately trying to find a row boat online, which had been a passing desire but is now an all consuming passion as apparently there are no little decent rowboats for sell for less than $10,000. All anyone sells are kayaks and canoes. Or boats with motors. And who wants a motor I ask? Or a Kayak or canoe for that matter! Not I!
Anyway, I love my pond and love to fish my pond now too.
