This summer I am having some of the weirdest feelings that I have had. I am enjoying my summer. I am loving my job, being home with my family, and relaxing. It feels like the summer is flying by! It is already a week into July and I have 25 days left for the main job that I do in the summer. I know the month of July will continue to fly by because it is when we have the biggest event of the summer at my work so it always goes fast.
You are probably wondering why I names this post Time Stands Still and just told you that my summer seems to be flying by. This is because when I think about it I cannot believe it is already July, but I also feel like the summer may never end. I miss school and having a different schedule than I do in the summer, I really miss my friends from school because at home I feel like their is a disconnect. I think that most of the people I would consider my close friends I miss a lot and wish they did not live so far away. I also miss just being on my own, which if you know me you probably cannot believe that I am saying that. It is hard to go from only having to worry about yourself and doing things the way you like them to be done and transition back into living at home. I would never say I am not happy to be at home because I am grateful and love my family.
This summer is also weird because next summer I will be preparing for my first teaching job. So I feel in this weird place of not wanting to wish away my summer, but also being ready to go back to college. I know that next summer will look very different from this one (I could be moving somewhere for a job). I will post about that more as I figure it out because it is still a year away.
Let me know if you feel in a weird middle place in any part of your life. It is weird to try to explain but I am sure other people feel this way too.
