The Ride

Hey Everyone! Today Lydia, Sarah, and I rode our bikes to Target because I was really stupid on Saturday when we first went and forgot to get all the little stuff I needed for the retreat, and then grabbed some Twizzlers and Gummy Bears for the car ride. Well, while we were there we were racing the clock, because we had to get Sarah to her tennis lesson at 12:15. So I was looking for some black or brown flip-flops and Sarah and Lydia were going through all the little baskets trying to fine eights or nines (they was a great abundance of tens!!!!!! ugh) Well, it took longer than we thought it would, but I did end up finding a good pair for $4. Then we had to race around the store like crazy to get the rest of the stuff, and get a quick bite to eat at the target fast food area (which we were not impressed with). We arrived at the tennis courts ten minutes before class, and we were very satisfied with our accomplishment. lol

Well, tomorrow I have so more babysitting to do, but I don't have to start until 10:30 so that makes the morning a lot easier and I am not going crazy trying to exercise, shower, and do two lessons of math before 9:30!!!!!!! yeah

The '94 periwinkle mini-van has reached its final days. Two weeks ago my mom and I got in it to and when we turned the engine on it started to squeal really loudly and smoke started coming from the air vents and from under the hood. My dad took it in this past weekend and today we got the verdict and decided it wasn't worth paying to get it fixed. (yippee for me who wont have to drive it, but then now I probably wont have anything to drive. We'll see) It is a sad but much belated parting.

Well, I have run out of things to say so I am going to read. Oh, I recommend The Count of Monte Cristo to anyone who is looking for a really good book. It is over 1,400 pages but it is really good. It's about the sailor who was named captain over this ship but this guy who wants his position plays a nasty trick and Dante ends up in a prison in the middle of an ocean, where he try's to escape for many years, and what becomes of him. IT IS REALLY GOOD!!!!!! g2run. God Bless,
