June is Busting Out All Over!
No, this is not about the film "Carousel" but it is probably my least favorite of the Rodgers and Hammerstein films. The domestic abuse theme of the story doesn't hold much appeal for me. (A slap never feels like a kiss! Ha!). At any rate, I digress...
Can you believe it is already June? The year is almost halfway over and I am feeling sort of melancholy. It is so odd, as it is the time of year that used to bring great happiness. School is getting out this week and the summer vacation starts. It feels really odd. I am contemplating returning to school in the fall. It actually fills me with a bit of dread! Being a student hasn't always been my forte. I feel I need a bit of change though, and hopefully this will give me a bit of what I am lacking.
Summer has increasingly become my least favorite season. The heat, no AC, the general blah of it all really gets to me. Perhaps it will get better or worse when the kids are going to school and being able to spend more time with them and vacation and all that. Then again, the stress of a vacation is in the parents' hands. Nothing is carefree any more, is it?
I am just in awe of it all though. One more school year until my beautiful redhead will be an attendee and now we have a few mere days until my baby is two. Where has the time gone? Honestly it is just slipping away.
Yes, I am scatterbrained.

How funny. I love Carousel and I never thought about the domestic abuse thing. I just thought about how great it was that he got to go back after he died.
I love the music in it, but I find the story of the Shirley Jones character rather heartbreaking.
