| Life feels decent I suppose. For Labor Day we went to all star sports to drive go carts and play golf.( During the whole trip Brooklyn referred to it as “Card Board Sports.” ) At HCC I have a psychology class and a math class. So far I have and A in both classes. (We’ll see how long I can keep that one up)
And in other news, we went shopping with Pam, Casey, Spencer and Makenzie. However; on the way to pick them up, I spotted something laying out on the side of the road. I soon realized that it was a baby squirrel! Cute..So I quickly told mom to stop the car, and while it was still moving (only slightly) threw myself out onto the hot asphalt and sprinted over to where I had saw this adorable little creature.
Yes it’s true. I have a baby squirrel. And much to my surprise my father is letting me nurse it back to health in the house! It’s name is nutty, but I prefer to call it Nutter Butter. | | |
| Sometimes in this life, I feel as though things just are messed up and so not the way they are supposed to be.
Then, other times. I feel as if things just couldn't be more right. I, personally, am getting really really tired of people pretending to know who I am and what I stand for. I'm so done with all that jazz! Ah. Okay.
Now that I have all that out of my system, I'll begin to share what has been going on in my life.
Recently I have discovered this really cute, original coffee house on main street in the downtown part of..where I live. :) ha. Yes anyways. It's called Brooks Coffee. Random? yes. But I thought I would share that with you anyways.
In other news, Hannah came down this weekend. I'm really not sure as to why, but I was glad for her company anyways. :)
She recently purchased a 2000 black mustang. But (from what I've heard) she just sort of looked at the car, thought it was pretty, and bought it. All in all, her transmission gave out and she has to pay for it to be repaired.
Dad is leaving for..Colorado maybe? I'm honestly not sure. All I know is that he's going to be singing with the church's quartet (I probably didn't spell that correctly but I frankly just really don't care) at some ranch I believe..Oh and he'll be riding horse back most of the time he's there.
Mom has been, well, everywhere and no where all at the same time. She has been everywhere in the sense that she seems to always busy, and no where meaning out of hutchinson. I personally would love to have her go with my father on his trip.
Me, well, I'm staying busy with work. Gotta pay for college somehow. Although I plan on putting money into a trust fund, or investments, so that way when I'm in a jam I have help. Either that or when I decide to retire I can be that old wrinkly lady you see behind the wheel of a Porshe or a Corvette. Ohh yeaahh..be jealous.
Monday, Wednesday, and Friday are my days to go to the gym. Around 9 a.m. is when I leave the basketball court and go to the weight room. However, I'm not allowed to lift as much weight because I began maxing out and pinched a nerve. As a result, I was unable to work, or lift very many object for over a week.

| Hello, again, Xanga family.
Best wishes and greetings to all of you. Recently, life has been really good for me. Don't get me wrong, I have had my times of trials, but God always manages to use them to build me up, and show me who he wants me to be.
I used to find life rather depressing at times, however, I'm learning that life isn't a burden, it's a precious precious gift that all should treasure greatly. This past week at Golden Bell Camp, in Colorado, I really learned to appreciate my life, and my ability to tell the difference between right and wrong because of the foundation my parents built my life on. I have it GOOD. Life is good. However, I have a confession. Before camp, I couldn't care less about my youth group and most of the people in it. I was the shy one who would be surprised if many people knew who I was. I utterly hated being there at times because I didn't feel as though I could be myself. For that reason I would try and find ways to miss or even skip Sunday school. However, this past week of camp, God had really laid it on my heart to change. And for the most part it did. I began to try and be myself; I was rather loud at times and would introduce myself to random people. I made so many new friends, I was slightly taken back. It really paid off to be real and step out of my blah comfort zone. Now, I feel so close to my youth group, and I love everyone in it. Well, there might be one or two exceptions. HAA just kidding.. :) These are the times in my life that I would love to simply freeze, just so I can absorb the happiness and joy that flows from the moment. However, there is someone in my life who can't only seem to freeze the moment, but preserve it and make me smile in the process. This person is truly great and shall remain nameless.. :) No but really, the real test for me now is being home and trying to remain open here. Yes I began to be myself, but I want to preserve that and keep opening up.
The van ride was oh so promising to be filled with fun and memories, as was the actual camp experience. One of my favorites was when all campers were to remain in the church building. No lodge, no mess hall, no outdoors. This was close to 10:55 or so at night and completely different from the other nights when we were allowed to hang out till 11:30 basically wherever we wanted. (No outdoors though, they wanted to make sure no purpling went on, and that we all made room for Jesus.) Anyways, this particular night, we were sitting in church chat, which normally lasted only a half hour, and that night lasted and hour and a half to and hour and forty five minutes. This happened because people started sharing and going deep, making the girls especially cry. Anyways, when church chat ended some of the girls wanted to go back to their rooms. They got permission from our youth pastor’s wife, and left. Only to return shortly after because someone had told them that "pastor’s wife" didn't make the rules and they had to stay put. I started talking to mama west and asked her if I could try to get by the "guards" and back to the room. Just to see if the plan in my head would work. I received permission, and left. I walked out the door by the game room and began walking up the path to the lodge. after I was about one fourth of the way up the path, and voice came from behind me, I turned around to see a bright light being shone on me from a van about twenty five feet away. "Where you headed?" asked the voice, "To the lodge." was my simple reply. "Well you need to just go back." came the voice again. Inside I felt a quirky sense of giggles. "Okay, but can I just go grab a tampon real quick?" "Sure." The voice sounded dismissing and embarrassed. Almost as if he was asking me to walk away. As I turned my back, I felt a smirk creep across my face, and returned to walking up the path. My plan was a success. I did not need a tampon mind you; I simply wanted to see if I could get passed someone I wasn't supposed too. Yes, yes I know church camp. Don't judge me, I simply made a memory. :)
This past week shall not soon be forgotten, it has embedded its self into my memory forever. | | |
| Hello dearest family! This is your long lost niece/cousin. Its been so long since I've been on here! NOT MY FAULT by the way..TOTALLY my moms fault for getting a filter. (that for some odd reason blocks everything) Anyways..life is good for the most part! I actually am sitting in my English class at the college right now. No worries though, I'm not getting on the computer while the teacher is talking. Class was canceled because she has fallen ill once again. For all of you who want to know, I have a B in this class. Not as good as an A BUUUUT I suppose it will have to do...for now. In other news, we have found out that Matt has dyslexia, which he has daily tutoring for. (I think he enjoys his tutoring and is no where near being ashamed of it) It's so funny to watch him grow up. He's so funny, and pretty dang popular everywhere he goes. He recently found that he looks rather spiffy in a FOhawk and his sharp looking glasses. Gretchen. Well well well. She still looks like she should be getting ready to drive, but in reality she's still in 6th grade! Pretty awesome if you ask me. But thats coming from someone who was told she looked like she was 7 when she was in fact 12. OH WELL. Paaahhaa! :] life goes on.. Babe-well babe is..just babe. She's constantly moving around making sure that no one has noticed her. If she acts shy trust me shes only faking it. Last night I decided that I needed to exercise more and decided I would go on a run. I (being the truly amazing, loving, thoughtful, and modest sister I am) invited Gretchen to join me in my little adventure. Well on our way out the front door babe decided that she wanted to "go running" too. I told her that it would be hard and that we wanted to ACTUALLY RUN. However, she continued to plead with me.
As we began to jog down the road I glanced over at babe who was in full stride. (for every ONE jog of mine, she took 3) when we finally reached the corner and were on our way back the gusts of wind that had been on our backs was now right in our faces. I watched babe beside me as she barred her teeth, trying to keep up. Anyways. It was truly a great day. :]!
Mom and Dad have recently grounded me because I came home too late. GRR. There IS MORE TO THE STORY buttt..I have decided to become at peave with it. (since my sentence is almost up anyways) GROUNDING-No phone, No facebook, NO life. MWUAHHAAAHA! -Mom and Dad. So anyways this is too the long lost family somewhere out there. I kinda doubt that any of you will read this because of the fact that it has been so long since I have BEEN ABLE to update. | | |
