a day in the life

Hi friends,

Sorry I have been failing at blogging lately. I keep waiting for exciting things to happen and they just don't haha. But regardless, I have been loving life and enjoying all of my down time. I told myself at the end of last semester that it was going to take me a full month to completely recover and I finally feel like I've reached that point haha. Now I'm very eager to be a contributing citizen in the world once again. I'm just ready to get settled on something that will make me feel at least a little productive. I'm tired of feeling people's judgment when they ask me 'So Lindsay... what are you up to this summer?" haha

I'm still waiting to hear back on the internship. They said they haven't made a hiring decision yet which worries me. I'm concerned they may be reconsidering if they really want to bring someone else in for that position at all. It would be really nice if they could let me know soon so I can move forward with my life one way or the other. I feel like I've just been living in limbo. Patience.

And thus, I've been putting most of my energy into working out haha. I guess it makes me feel better about myself at least being able to say I'm active in some way. Sometimes it's hard for me to remember how I ever used to be a runner. I used to be able to run 6+ miles at a time without a problem. Now if I run more than 2 I feel like I won't make it to see another day. It's rough getting old. Volleyball is good. I get to meet and play with our incoming recruits on Saturday so I'm looking forward to that. I've also started doing a zumba class. I go a few times every week at a place in Fort Wayne. I'm really enjoying it. Girls, you should all try it. Find a class and pay $5 for a drop-in and it'll be totally worth it just to experience it if nothing else. My bet is that you'll end up falling in love with it and come back for more haha. But it's just a lot of fun and a great workout. And there's something appealing to me about shaking it with these 60 year old women :) haha props to them! I hope that'll be me one day.

So I did a little creative writing on Sunday haha. It felt good to write like that again.. you know like in a well structured essay kind of format opposed to this short, choppy, all about me kind of writing that's really of no interest to anyone lol. I'm looking into seeing if i can submit it for publication with an online magazine or blog or something. If it goes over well maybe I'll share it with you. It's just a little inspirational piece about my brother, and running, and college, and life.

I may or may not be taking my sister Danielle's engagement pictures in the near future. If that happens, I'll be sure to share with you as well.

I finally got to see my good friend Chelsea tonight after oh, about two months or so. She was in India for a month and then we've just been busy I suppose. But yes, that was delightful :) We're devising some big plans for a road trip here in a couple weeks. We took a road trip together two years ago to Gulf Shores and it was pretty much the highlight of my life so I am definitely stocked for this one! The plan is to have a joint garage sale next weekend to raise some money so if you would like to come out and support us please do. We'll be offering lemonade for sale as well lol. Details to follow.

I'm thoroughly impressed that I'm finding this much to ramble about right now but for your sake I'll take a break for the night and maybe pick up with more information that's of little interest for you sometime soon.

Love you all.
