Day 48 - OFF

So it has occurred to me that tomorrow will mark the halfway point in my internship. Much like hump day on wednesdays it all goes down hill from here! I don't mean downhill in a bad way either but more like time just starts flying by and next thing you know its over. In other words, need to continue living every day to the fullest!!! Still hard to believe there's only 4 more days left of June and that this one may as well be half over already (almost 11am) so make that 3.5 days.

Today my plans to go out and do a Common Loon survey with the assistant education director and a volunteer turned into a bust. I was apparently really tired because I managed to sleep through both of my alarms! I did not wake up until 10 minutes too late of where I was supposed to be. Honestly this is rather upsetting but I won't let myself get too bummed. I take it as "another adventure awaits you today" so now I just need to get the ball rolling and figure out where the road is trying to lead me to said adventure. I'm not sure if I want to truly hike anywhere because a day of rest sounds pleasant but I also know I do not want to stay cooped up here all day. I'll figure out something that does not cost too much gas/money.

In the mean time I baked brownies, talked about some birding experience with my fellow Ohio birders, and basically have just chilled out while listening to music. I need to do laundry at some point today even though I want to avoid it but I intend on saving that until after my adventure. I also need to mail out a package today to my boyfriend's uncle. Keep forgetting to do that, shame on me. I also never had time until today too.


Later....
 So the read ended up leading me to take a shower, prepare to go do laundry, and end up being asked if I was interested in rescueing a bird with the two rehabbers. Of course I was interested! Therefore I went. Sadly it turned out to be a bust because it started to down pour, rained the whole way, and when we arrived...no bird. Roughly a few hours of time passed but hey it got me out of the center for a little while, allowed me chill out in the back seat of the vehicle, listen to some country music, and gave me time to play 4 pics 1 word. Needless to say I was content. The other good news, we rescued a turtle while on the way back!

 Upon returning to the center I then took leave to do my laundry but completely forgot to mail the package to my boyfriend's uncle. Maybe tomorrow!!! If only I could remember while the post office is still open, I always remember after its already closed. Since returning I worked on this blog a bit more but otherwise this day has been relaxing. Something I have needed for a good while!

Tonight we are having a protocol party and pot luck dinner with lasagna. I baked brownies for the occasion so looking forward to this! Not too interested in doing protocols tonight but gotta do what I gotta do if I want to finish mine up before the deadline on the 7th.
