Summer's Here

Summer has been here for at least a month weather-wise, however the neighborhood kids just got out of school this week, which to me means that it is officially summer. Since I have just had nearly 2 weeks off and I don't get vacation pay (because I guess they think we don't need it), the next several weeks or actually until I take my next vacation the end of July I will be working 4-5 days a week. I don't really like working 4 days a week and I despise working 5. So by the time I have worked my 14 shifts in June (I've already worked 2) and my 14 shifts in July, Summer will be almost over. However I will still make a bucket list for summer, even though I know it is going to fly by faster than fire flies, as you never know when I will be able to squeeze some fire fly watching in.
