Dude!

Yes, we are still alive up here in the wilds of Maine. You can call us Karla "Work" (last name) and Erik "Work and Class" (last name). It's been insane, but it looks like things are slowing down a bit, at least for me. I opted a few weekends back to the be the site manager at Victoria Mansion, essentially working 14 days in a row without a day off. Needless to say, it wasn't good for my stress level.

While things are getting better for me, they are just beginning to get busy for Erik. His summer classes end next week, but then he's off to his two weeks of active duty for the Coast Guard (required of reservists), then back to work AND class full time as soon as the two weeks are over. Insanity I tell you.

There is still a month left of summer, but looking back, this summer has been pretty much consumed by work. Not thrilled about this, but hey, what can you do. The highlights for me have been my trip to Connecticut for a high school friend's wedding party and our annual trip up to Castine. Be greatful for the small things, right?
