yay! today is SUNDAY. This past week our church has had our Vacation Bible School. We did like this Sonworld amusement park or something... anyways for it, my sister, me and our friends from church all got together and for a class for the little twerps we got to act out a skit each day (luckily we didn't have to talk- Stacey read what was happening). We were supposedly from the past, because before the kids got to see us, they had to go through the time machine and a star room (the galaxy...). So today the people who played the main characters for the 5 days each get to talk and say a little speech from their character's point of view. I'm Thomas, I think... I had the main part on Friday. There were other really fun things going on during VBS, too... not gonna enumerate them... ninja
and then yesterday we (me, sister, brother, mom, and a whole bus-full of people from Rice Hospital) went to the Twins game!! 3nodding It was really fun- we left at 3 and got home at midnight. 5 of the 6 points they scored were in the 7th inning. don't really remember how many times we kept getting on our feet to encourage peoples... speaking of getting up, we were in the EXACT middle of a really long row, so I only got out once because it was miserable trying to get out... took forever... razz oh and on the way there we watched Mr. Bean's Holiday (absolutely halarious... xD) and on the way back we watched Astronaut Farmer (retarded movie...). so that kept me mildly entertained....
and then in other news, as of early this past week, it was discovered that our herdsman, Paul, just flat-out left. He is/was scheduled to have back surgery in the Cities, and he was supposed to stay here until about today, then leave for good. But he left, and we were without help for a bit... still are... but on the plus side, yesterday dad hired a guy!! biggrin His name is Ben (Hohman?), and he is divorced with 3 kids between the ages of 3 and 5, and sees them every other weekend. He's had previous construction and dairy experience (the reason he wants the job here is because he's been working for a family-owned construction company and he's sick of it) and possibly even military experience... dad really liked him. It'll be nice (but really unusual and weird) to have good help for once... smile
And then this past week our cousins from Montana are visiting. They're kinda irritating, but hey, they're family. (one of them is 17 years old- he's only interested in legos and spending time with 10 year olds... plus last I saw him i found out he hadn't taken a shower for 3 weeks... o.o then the other is a little younger than Karen (lonnie, even?) and she laughs- constantly. kinda thick (literally and figuratively...), too... but she's nice (sometimes... =P))
so yeah... for once in a million years, this week I don't have anything!! biggrin I'm happy... but that also means tons of chores and stuff (lol speaking of which I broke my clothes hanger thingy where I put all my good clothes so they're laying in a heap on the floor- I'm supposed to clean that up sometime... razz ). I also have to stage some sort of one-person photoshoot because mom wants me to send 3 thank-yous- 1 for the piano to Mrs. Prekker, another to Steph for the piano bench, and another to Carol for the piano music. Mom wants me to take a picture of myself playing the piano, then send it in the thank-yous. I'm thinking I'll do a separate picture for each... like one of everything, then of like the music and stuff... *shrugs* I'll post up what I do... razz
on Wednesday I finished behind the wheel. I was supposed to have finished a long time ago, but Mr. Trulock doesn't exactly have all his screws lined up straight... stare but anyways I'm not so hot at it... the last session thingy we had was a really bad day for me (everyone was yelling at me for something or other...), and he wanted us to do a practice behind the wheel drivers test. I failed, for several reasons. I just outright bawled once I got out of that car for the last time... then right before i broke down, one of my friends from church told me that one of the ladies that helps in the kitchen for VBS was whining to him about me that I took some skittles when we were supposed to save them for friday... I didn't know!!! So that got me even more pissed... then mom came in and yelled at me too... I was ready to die. still am. But anyways to make up for the hand-ful of skittles I took, I had mom get 2 new bags to replace them. stick that in your juice box and suck it, Michelle. stare
... is that it? oh- last night I had a really weird dream. it was like I was dreaming about dreaming about being in a hotel over and over again. each time i had the dream, it changed just slightly, but always the same was this box up in the rafters. eventually in the last dream I got it down, then in real life, I started having those shivering-tingly sensations all over my body and they lasted an incredibly long time... then I woke up. the box remains un-opened... sad
ok now I'm done-- yesterday and the day before the internet was spazzing out, so I didn't get anything done (maybe it has something to do with me browsing people on myspace at 2:30 in the morning?)... stare anyways it works now, so yay! talk to ya'll later! biggrin
