the end of summer...

Today is my last real day of summer break.

In some ways, the summer has been unremarkable -- hubby and I didn't take a real vacation.

I spent most of the summer by and in the pool -- which was lovely, but not earth shattering...

On the other hand, it's been pretty remarkable --

I'm now Dr. ITPF --- or ITPF, Ph.D.... however it happens.

I've spent a lot of time with my friends this summer -- and have made a new, very good, friend in FB.

I've lost 30 lbs -- I have a lot more to go, but that's remarkable in and of itself -- as the only other time I was able to do so involved lots of vomit...

So, I'll go back to school thinner, tanner, more well rested and with a new outlook on life and teaching... which is probably the best way to end a summer.
