Today's Events

This afternoon, Rachel and I had sewing at the library. Photography is over for the year, which is kind of sad. I made a, or attempted to make a peasant shirt. But I couldn't really get my sewing machine to work very well. And I kept doing things wrong!! Ug! I only got the front part of my shirt done; so the backside isn't even started yet. Hopefully, I'll get that done this week. I'll try and get some pictures on here soon! After sewing, I went over to a house that my grandma is working on flipping. She is having a garage sale in the morning, so I spent most of my time pricing things to sell. My cousin, who's in town, put up the backsplash. He did an awesome job on it! The house is starting to look better inside. There was talk about getting up early in the morning, I think I'm already sawing ZZZ's.... We are also in the proccess of spring cleaning.
Oh how I'm tired of it. We basically bagged up half the house and sent it off to Goodwill. We've been doing that for about 3 days. I think one more day and it's over. Ahh.... Okay, so I better go off to bed before I fall asleep in front of the computer. ZZZZZ - sourpatch

Saturday Chores

So today, Rachel got up early and went to take the ACT again. She feels confident in how she did, but you never know.... She just "happened" to miss all of the Saturday chores. How convenient!! So, we were kept busy this morning by cleaning all the normal stuff. I put in a pizza for lunch, then we went to get Rachel. We drove by a house that we were looking at, maybe, buying, but the pictures that we were given were a little decieving. Then on the way home, we saw a dead horse in the pasture. Sad, too.... Anyway, we drove by Sonic and got some food and ice cream. Yum-yum. Then swept by Goodwill and dropped off some clothes. Really nothing major to talk about in my posts. Oh yeah! By the way, we are getting rid of the 'burb'. We think we have found another car, but not sure yet. We are also going on Monday morning to our cousins' house. They live in Arkansas. But Dad and I are driving back the same day because I have science and an orthododontist in the morning and Dad has to work, but hopefully we'll get some good visiting in. Also, my grandma has an absess tooth, so that's not good at all. ttyl, sourpatch

A Lazy Sunday Afternoon

We went to church this morning and listened to a visiting preacher. Our pastor is currently sick with some sort of illness. I basically was lazy all afternoon. I sat around and played The Sims 2 on the computer for a while. Our cousin, Brandon is coming into town from Arkansas this afternoon. He was going to come in earlier, but was delayed. We are fixing spaghetti, garlic bread, and salad. And for dessert: brownie dessert (with brownie pieces, whipped cream, chocolate bar shavings, and chocolate jello). A version of this dessert is called Death By Chocolate. Of course, I don't like this, not liking chocolate and all, but everybody else seems to be crazy about it... tootles, sourpatch
