well so far the start to the summer hasn’t gone like i would have hoped. work wise business is still slow and below last year so i haven’t been able to hold the jobs i’ve wanted to. i’m now stuck working in the yard for the foreseeable future. hopefully not more than a few weeks. this is disapointing because nearly a year ago i was able to hold the road easily. but whatever. the weather hopefully won’t be too bad here in june and its not a huge pay cut i suppose.
one of my closest friends-Pat-moved away last week to Sweden to start a job and live with his GF. While this sucks, really i’m pretty used to friends moving far away. Jason in Seattle, Ryan in New Orleans, ect. Its almost more surprising when anyone decides to stay near KC.
I’m thinking that any kind of decent vacation this year is unlikely. i kinda want to keep saving money so I can maybe get a house next year. my apt rent is going up $40/month so i think i will sign a shorter lease and shoot for next summer as a possible house buying time. I need to finish paying off my car first though.
