This post is so random, I can't think of a title

This is probably going to be my last post before I leave for camp. (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) Sorry I haven't posted all week, VBS has made me exhausted. Blah. VBS was awesome. Even though I had to get up really early, and then come home wicked tired, it was still great. I had these 2 little girls, Maylen and Annie who are sooo cute!!! Everyday they fought over who got to sit on me. Of course they never gave me the chance to say, "Well what if I don't want to be sat on?". They just sat on me anyway. =) But they're so cute. I already said that...WELL DID YOU SEE THEM?!!? Annie told me on the last day that she loved me and that she was really going to miss me. Ahhhh, yeah I'm going to say it again....So cute!!!!!

The rest of VBS was fun too, I thought Chadder was kinda dumb this year but that's ok cuz it kept my kids entertained. =) It was great seeing a lot of people from the homeschool group that I don't get to see anymore a lot. =)

My throat is all scratchy..and I'm really worried cuz it's been like this all day, so I was wondering you people, who read my blog, would pray for me? I really don't want to be sick for camp. I wait for this all year and Berea is my favorite place in the whole world, so it's really special when I get to go. =) Yeah so if you could just pray for me that'd be great.

How To Make a Cat Mad

HOW TO MAKE A CAT MAD:

(A-very-instructional-umm-thing-you-should-uh-know-for-the-future-I-guess...)

Pinch it's nose. It will then immediately become angry, stop purring, and possibly give you the cold shoulder.

Triskaidekaphobia

Word of the Day for Friday, July 13, 2007 (Yesterday)

triskaidekaphobia \tris-ky-dek-uh-FOH-bee-uh\, noun:

A morbid fear of the number 13 or the date Friday the 13th.

My only thought is this...
I hope that there isn't a lot of 13 year-old kids who have triskaidekaphobia.

The Beauty of Grace

Must make 5 more posts before July 10th....I can do it!!
These are the lyrics to Krystal Meyers song The Beauty of Grace. I just bought this song on iTunes after listening to it on Tori's iPod. I think the lyrics are so meaningful that I decided to share them!

The Beauty of Grace

Written by Krystal Meyers and Ian Eskelin (thanks Tori!)

Tell me why'd you run?

You say you’re so ashamed

Bruised and broken

Thought if I figured out the mess you made

Then I’d leave

But anywhere you are

Is never too far away

There’s freedom from your scars

The mistakes that you’ve made

Forgiven

The memories erased

Baby, that’s the beauty of grace

La de da, la de da da

Tell me what is love?

I’ll never hold you to

The things you may have done

You say you want new life

In My arms there’s mercy

So blow a kiss goodbye

To all the pain you hide

Pet pictures

Sorry the pictures took so long! My mom actually had my camera cord, no idea why.
Anway these are my darling pets, not always darling but most of the time! =)

Yesterday and Today

Yesterday was the 4th of July! I'm guessing that you all knew that already, unless you haven't look at a calender for 8 months, or you're in a coma! But I highly doubt that.

Anyway yesterday I spent most of the day at Meghan's (oooh suprised you there, didn't I?) because her family invited my family for a cookout. Well cookin, cuz it started to rain. It was fun though, Meghan's grandmother gave me this cool hat, she gave everyone a hat. She is a really cool grandmother. She's really funny too, she doesn't act a whole lot like an adult. =)

Today my mom woke me up at 6:30. She didn't try to wake me up, but I could hear her doing something loud, I actually have no idea what she was doing but it was loud! I probably just think it was loud cuz I'm a light sleeper, ha. So after that fun I watched Monk. That is a funny show. We borrowed the first season from the Lareau's, and I finished it in 2 days. It's horrible I know. Hey it was my first 2 days of summer (almost) and Meghan wasn't done yet!

I know I promised like...6 posts ago that I would post some picutures of Nudge, well, earlier I found her laying in a empty, plastic, trash can on it's side. I ran upstairs to get my camera, took about 12 pictures, then went to the computer to load them on.
....Well guess who lost her camera cord!!!!!! I'm so annoyed. How do you lose a camera cord?? Well in MY house!? I can't use my mom's cuz it's too big, and since she's hiking, I can't ask her if she put mine somewhere. So you're going to have wait longer to see Nudge. =P

Posts, Carpets, and Tuesdays. And stealing Meghan's three subject post thing...that she doesn't do anymore....

70 posts...sweet.

This is the first of 8 posts that Eric and I are writing before July 10th! Well this is my first post, I'm slightly ahead of you Eric!!! But I bet not for long, lol.

This morning this guy came over and cleaned our carpets downstairs. My house smell weird now. And the carpets are wet. I almost asked my dad, "Why did we do that again?" but I realized that if I did ask my dad, he would just start to rant about all our dirty pets. Hahah! Oh well, we love them, so we can put up with them. At least I can, I know if my dad had it his way......ehhhh. lol.

Today is new music Tuesday!! I love Tuesdays!!! And iTunes. =)

kuh-LOOD

collude \kuh-LOOD\, intransitive verb:

To act in concert; to conspire; to plot.

I'm colluding? How do you say that....?

I'm colluding to steal some chocolate from the top shelf on the cupboard! I'm hoping that all my colluding will pay off and I will find myself eating that delicious chocolate. Mmmm.

Eye See You

Today I had an eye doctor appointment. It was my yearly eye-checkup, and personally I don't see why I would need a yearly checkup, except to see if I'm going blind or something.
But I think I could tell them if I thought I was going blind. Uh yeah.

I need a new prescription anyway though, so I can understand that I needed to go. And actually, I usually need a new prescription every year, so I could also understand why my mom would make an appointment every year. But still. It's the principle of the thing!

Oh yeah, and I have astigmatism (Thank God for spellcheck!) in my left eye. That means that my left eye is not shaped like a perfect soccer ball like my right eye. The doctor's words not mine. I don't really care, I mean why would I? It's not like I'm going to go around hiding my left eye because of a little imperfection. I actually like it. I feel like my eye is unique. Strange, huh? =)

Tomorrow we might be going to Wal-Mart (The-official-store-of-America-where-you-can-get-all-the-junk-you-might-happen-to-need) to get new glasses. I always get freaked out before we go there, cause I'm afraid I'll pick a pair that look horrible on me. Maybe I'll take Meghan....or maybe not. haha.

Random thoughts

I have a cute hamster.

Wink of Death is fun. Even when I'm the first one to die...

Don't stay up until 3:30 AM. Even if you hear ghostly music...JUST DON'T!

Meghan and I had a lovely garden party and you weren't invited! (Meghan and I got crushed in a totally twisted game of Uno, so we decided to have a garden party, and not invite the ones who did the crushing.)

The sky up here (when I say up here, I mean on the hills where I live) change every 15 minutes. Or it seems like that if you aren't paying much attention.

Kickball is awesome, I think we should play it all summer, but maybe not every Friday, but I really don't care!!

I love volleyball.

Jet-Puffed marshmallows have a very strange name, and dissolve if you put them in boiling hot cocoa. And they are wonderfully delicious.

It is not weird at all to have hot cocoa in the summer. IT'S JUST NOT!!

I want to learn how to play the drums.

I miss my couch, because my parents moved it down into the basement. It's just not cool!

Summer is the best time of the year.

Batman Begins is a awesome movie.

Ok random thoughts are done! I just thought I should post. =)
