Whoa I've been away for like two months now!

Hello my loyal readers out there! If you are reading this then maybe just maybe you have stuck with me through this long period of Uhhhh rest? Maybe it wasn't rest but more like laziness. Well just in case you didn't know I am back in the U.S. now and after being here for about two weeks now I've gotten used to being back. Luckily I haven't been too bored and have been able to hook up with some friends and also able to meet a lot of new friends. They are all really good people and I enjoy hanging with them. It seems there is always something new and different to do which is always good. Last weekend we went camping and that turned out to be really good. We probably had about 11 or 12 people and we had a big fire going with Wine, Coronas, Cigars, and of course Smores! I'm not a huge smoker but I do like to have a Cigar every now and then just for the taste. We had good conversations, listened to music, and just relaxed. We kind of cheated the next morning when we woke up and left by going to IHOP for breakfast but hey no one is perfect.

At this moment I am hanging out at Montevallo. Earlier today I sort of had a sports day with one of my new friends I met who also does not work during the summer. She loves playing just about everything just like I do so we ended playing a little basketball, Ping Pong, and Air Hockey. We plan on during many other activities too since we are both pretty competitive. If you are reading this Elizabeth don't worry she has not taken your place as my competitive partner. It's good to find someone else who's schedule is a little more free during the day though that way I won't be so bored all the time. Here at my school they had a new recruit in so we all played 5 on 5 I guess to see what he had. I always enjoy playing with new people and just getting together with a number of guys that can all play fairly well. Tomorrow I have to head home to get some things taken care of but not until after a full day of activities here! I plan on going out to the driving range and working on my golf swing, then playing a little badminton followed by some racquetball only to end the day playing more 5 on 5. Needless to say I will be worn out tomorrow but it's always a good feeling knowing you pushed your body to the limits and that you are making it work as opposed to sitting around all day and just feeling useless.

My brother is coming to town on Thursday so I'm excited about that. My niece and nephew will accompany him along with my sister-in-law. I can't wait to see the little kiddies! I have to take them to the toy store and fulfill my Uncle-ly duties. I just remember as a kid the smallest things would make me happy even if it was just 10 dollars. It will be fun just playing with them and seeing them. I think they will be here until the following Tuesday and then they have to head back. At the end of this month I will start working the soccer camp they host every year here at Montevallo. I will be an Athletic Trainer which I might add I've gotten pretty good at over the years. That will last for almost 3 weeks and then I guess I will be free for the rest of the summer for whatever I want to do.

To all my Luxembourg people I miss you all and hope everything is going well there. Hopefully you guys are getting some good weather but just knowing Luxembourg I know that can be a lot to ask. Well for now I will leave things at that! Talk to you all later!
