June

I just love it when June has arrived....To me it means that summer has officially begun. And even though I am half a year past my 20th High School Reunion, I still get excited about summer. I just long to be near the ocean. There is nothing like hearing the waves crashing, smelling the salty sea air. If you couldn't find me as a teenager, check the beach. Chances are, that is where you will find me.

I don't think I will get back to Jersey this summer. I have tried to make it up at least once a year for a while, but I think I will have to pass this year. I am not on the best of terms with my family right now, and I don't want to impose on Heidi and Joe. I am sure they would welcome me, but they are still newlyweds, and they need their space. I may try to get away for a few days this summer and take Joseph to Myrtle Beach. I have never been, and I don't think he has, either. I would love to go and stay in Cape May, but I guess that will have to wait until next year.

Well, I think I am going to go and sit out on the porch with Max (I'm keeping him while Joey is....wherever.....Pensacola, maybe???) I love the smell of honeysuckle.
