A Day With Katy
Yesterday around 11, Katy came over because we had planned to take her for lunch and a movie. Katy came and we took her to Shogun, which was awesome! I always love Shogun. We all had shrimp fried rice, YUM. It was so good I didn't think I'd be able to eat the popcorn. We left and got our movie tickets. After that we still had about 20 minutes until the start of the movie. We went down to Barnes and Noble and looked around. It was fun but it wasn't the one we usually go to. Oh well! After that we went to see the movie we had been planning to see. It was good. We ate popcorn and orange soda. It was fun.

Pool Party at Night
That night I went to Hannah's birthday party. I got there and dropped my present off and went to meet Spiffy, Hannah's kitten. Then I went outside and saw Paxton. I got to talk with Paxton and it was real fun. But Kaitlyn and Karli kept on slpashing us. lol. I got in the pool and it was so cold until I went underwater. We swam around on the not-deep side because the deepside was filled with people. Me and Paxton learned that we are in homeroom together. YAY! Eventually it was time for hot dogs. I didn't have any because I had already eaten dinner. After the delicous cake we were served, Hannah opened her presents. She opened mine first! I had made a yellow door pillow with 2 flowers on the corners of Welcome, and on the back Come Back Soon with 3 flowers below. I thought of it and stuffed it but my mom did all the sewing stuff. It was sew cool! lol. I also made her a mouse pad which I had designed in Fireworks. It had her name in the top left corner and a picture of her in the middle and her initials in the bottome right corner. In all, it was a purple mousepad. I think she liked it! After presents, we swam. When almost everybody had left, me, Hannah, and Bailey (Hannah's friend, not my sister) went to the deep-end and started swimming across and trying to touch the bottom. When it got fairly dark, we were saving mothkind. Little moths would get stuck in the pool and we would swim all over the pool to save them. Then my mommy came and we left. But it was 9:30 so my eyes were starting to hurt.

Climbing With Katy
On Wednesday afternoon, after I dropped off Keaton and heard the news, we came home and went outisde with Katy. We sat on the swing set and talked and walked down the brick wall like we always love to do. Ryleigh kept on sticking his snout under the fence. We pet him and stuff. Earlier I had let Birkleigh out who had decided to chase a car in the process of giving me and Katy our exercise for the year. Toby got out too, but being as obedient as he was, he smelled Katy, stood there, and went back in. We were also running around climbing stuff! We looked through my vents and I told her about the cave.

A Mystery
I told Katy all about this:
Down in my basement where my mom's office is, is a small door in her closet. This door, blocked by boxes, leads to "The Cave". The Cave was being built like an ordinary room, except it was never finished. Vents outside the house peak into it. There is a huge ditch and if you slip on that dirt floor, you're going down. It is possible to get up but you have to be kind of tall. The most mysterious thing about the cave isn't the cave itself, but the tunnel inside. There is a wooden box down in the ditch that goes down farther and farther. It is connectected to the brick wall so it's not there on accident. Nobody's sure what's down there. But we all want to know.

Climbing With Katy and Ryan
I went outside with Katy and she brought Ryan. I've put up with him before so I could put up with him then which was now at that time. Anyways, we went and climbed and walked the brick wall and ate popsicles and stuff. Ryan, Bailey, and Kye ran off somewhere so me and Katy just jumped the fence into my back yard. We jumped from the brick wall from the trampoline and it was fun! We also just sat in the yard and talked.

Keaton's Visit
Hey guys! My cousin Keaton spent the night last night. We watched Signs and played around on the trampoline and stuff. Mom took Bailey to gymnastics this morning so we were here alone with Lexi. Lexi is three years old and the cutest thing! Well, until she gets sassy. Last night she was afraid of the dark and me and Keaton had lots trouble getting her to bed. And we had to pause Signs at least 5 times. Grrr....I like Signs. Keaton wanted to watch it again today without the noise but there was no time, they left right after lunch.

A Bloody Nose
Swing...swing...swing....
Lexi had a blast swinging. I was pushing her. I heard someone screaming and looked over. Bailey had fallen on Keatons knee. Oh well, I thought, she probably just landed wrong. I walked up and saw blood running down her face and splattering on the trampoline. I ran inside and told mom and dad. When I came out Bailey had seen the blood and gotten panicky. Blood was on the concrete and up the stairs. She came in and they put a towel to her nose and had her take a shower to rinse it off of her arms and legs. It wasn't broken, but her nose was hurt. It wasn't anybody's fault.

Abby
This is sad..
A couple weeks ago, Brandi (my cousin, Keaton's mom, my mom's niece, my aunts daughter) got a new little doxen puppy. I never met her, but I heard she was sweet and cute, but puppy-like. Sadly, they found a whole in her intestine. Last night around 6ish I think, Keaton got a call from Adam (keaton's Dad) who had gotten a call from the vet who said Abby was sure to live and very fine. Later that night, Abby got worse. This afternoon, we dropped Keaton off, but he had forgotten his keys. He had to wait for his Dad to let him in. Adam came and let him in and stayed back to talk to mom. Mom said she hadn't told us yet and Adam said he was going to tell keaton. What? I didn't know. We got in the car and mom told us about the call from Adam later that night. Abby had died. :(

My best friend has been kidnapped and has been stowed on a boat to Peru, I'm about to be thrown off a tall cliff, an evil brain surgeon is taking over the world, and Kye is wearing a tuxedo.
That's a fantasy life.

Man, summer is boring. I have the time to write I just don't know what to write about. Nothing's happening. Ryleigh plays with Birkleigh and Toby, Bailey plays video games, katy's never home, Dad's doing computer stuff, and I'm with Mama when I'm not on the computer. Summer is so pointless. I didn't want it to begin in the first place. I've become pitiful! You should have seen me today! It was raining really hard and Toby and I were jumping and spinning and running and we were so happy. It was like I had never done anything like it. I've been so bored I forgot what it's like to do something like that. lol. Not really, but it was good to get out and do something. I'm not unhappy, I'm just bored. I have enjoyed chatting online with people, but I feel kind of guilty. I feel like my not being with people all the time makes them feel bad but I don't want them to. I don't know, results of boredom I guess. Haha! Ryleigh is chewing up his toy and stuffing is hanging off his lip! It's so cute! See, he keeps me entertained. I'm not COMPLETELY bored. Well, I enjoy blogging. Sorry for boring you guys about my boredom. lol.

Hey peoples!

A Visit From Nicole
My friend Nicole came over today. We mainly did stuff on the computer but it was still fun. I created a blog for her, click here, and she also wanted a picture blog so I made her one. She saw my blog and picture blog and thought it was cooler than xanga, which is exactly what I think. I helped her set up and AIM account too. We had fun, we played the piano and we talked and we just did different stuff. It was really fun. Her Aunt Kathy came and picked her up around 5ish.

Hanging Out With Katy
Bailey had accidently left her shoes in Katy's yard the other day, so they called me to come get 'em. I knew they were her's so I picked up to go and was caught by Kye. We talked and stuff and Katy came out. :) I got to talk to Katy! YIPPPEEE!!! She wanted to know if I could stay outside with her and I went and told Mom. I dropped off the shoes, of course, and went outside. Katy and I sat on ledges of things (our climbing selves) and talked. She'll be leaving for golf tournaments so I won't be able to see her for a couple of days. :(. But then she'll be back for a while! :)

Other
I'm chatting with Hannah on AIM right now. They adopted a little kitty! And he likes to type (he fell of Hannah's shoulder into the keyboard!) lol. Lisa is leaving for El Salvador tomorrow and her birthday is the 24th. I think Hannah's is coming up too come to think about it. Taylor has strep throat :( and Nicole is going home to Nebraska in about 4 days. And, Nicole would like some publicity and she asks that you visit both her blogs! (links in first paragraph) Thank you for reading! Will post more soon!

Hey doodley-dudes! I am at the quilt shop right now with mom and Bail. Ms. Glenda and some other staff are at a class somewhere else, and Mom and some other people had to take over. I was not overly excited about staying home alone for 4 hours with nothing at all to do, so here I am, typing from Ms. Glenda's computer. Mom, of course, has put us to work and I have no problem with that on account of it gives me something to do. We've taken out the trash and little things like that. We haven't had many customers today. :( Oh well, it's the customers loss. We should be leaving soon. See you later!
Will post more soon!

Bye Bye Internet
Hey guys!
Last night I was talking with Lisa on messenger. I signed off so I could sign on as her to help her do something with her messenger. I had her permission and everything. When I tried, the AIM shut down. I restarted my computer, and I still couldn't get on AIM. I tried to get on the Internet, no connection. I went downstairs to see if I was the only one who's Internet access shut down. Nope, whole house. Dad tried fixing it, but he couldn't, and he always can. So something was wrong. The cable guy came and fixed it today though!

Hello People
Not you guys! lol.
I haven't sweated this much since we got in trouble at PE last year! I was worn out by back-bend kick-overs at gymnastics. They make sure we practice every step of everything. Anyways, after gymnastics we met with Mom's friend Amy at Harps. She has a daughter, Kayden, who is Bailey's age along with a son, Tye, who is younger than 3 year old Lexi. (Our cousin) Anyways, they got into our car with us and we drove off towards Trees N Trends. We went to Jewelry and Handbag Warehouse and had lots of fun. I kept my eye on Bailey and Kayden and still got to look for something to match the outfit I got at Kohls yesterday. I couldn't find anything. Oh well, it's not like I'm obsessed. Kayden just recently moved here from Searcy (Yum! Strawberries!) and hasn't been able to see our Chuck E. Cheese. So, we went to Chuck E. Cheese and I watched Tye, Kayden, and Bailey while Mom and Mrs. Amy talked. Of course, I had to wack a few moles, role a few balls, and bang on the little thing that lights up if you hit it hard enough. lol. And I helped Bailey and Kayden and helped all three of them with their games and ,if they wanted me to, play with them. Tye rode the Barney ride about a hundred times. lol.

I got the TV fever!
I got the TV down,
I got the TV fever!
I think it's goin around!
lol!

I'm in a Tv/Movie mood for some strange reason. Yesterday I watched Signs which is awesome! I highly recommend it! In fact, I think I'll watch it again sometime! Anyways, I watched Signs, then I went and watched a little bit of All My Children, awesome episode! Ryan rode his motorcycle off a cliff and then Zach jumped down and it cut off. :( Stupid Soap Opra...lol. Then I watched a couple episodes of the Dead Zone, which was also awesome. I've been watching that show since I was like, 6 or 7 or something. Well, the episode Mom and I watched was the one where he has to find an artists daughter (supposedly...you have to watch it!!!hehehe!) and his other daughter tries to kill her down at the beach, but at first when Johnney sees it (he's psychic) she is in a room but that was because the real painting was painted over, and since his vision wasn't quite clear enough, he killed her, but that turned out wrong. It's confusing, but its the Dead Zone! It's awesome!Well after the Dead Zone I watched Family Matter (see how they relate? lol) while I ate dinner, and at 8 o'clock watched The 4400, my favorite show! In this one, Tom met a 4400 who could create a new world but didn't know she was, but he didn't figure that out until the end. They ended up married for 8 years before they could find out how to get back to their own world. In this world, the 4400 abductions never happened. It's really cool!!! Well, you need to watch it for yourself!

Well, I guess thats my Randomly Often Recommendations in a way that I'm telling you what I watch.
Will post more soon!

Now I have stuff to tell you.

Grandma's House
Friday Bailey and I went to Grandma's house to hang out and stuff. I showed Grandma some stuff on the computer and together we found how to make cool symbols like § and æ. Bailey and I spent the night and the next day helped her get ready for dinner. We were inviting Grandma's neighbors, Ron, Harlen, and Harlen's daughter, Tera, and Aunt Jean and Uncle Jim, and Mom and dad. I helped her move tables and cut stuff for the crawfish ettouffe. Yum! I love crawfish ettouffe it's delicious! And for those who have never had it, you need to try it! And me and Bailey licked the bowl that Grandma baked her delicious chocolate cake in! It was so fun! At dinner everybody came and we all ate. I got to see Aunt Jean and Uncle Jim! And I got to talked with Tara. Mom sat with Ron and Harlen and I sat with Bail and Tara. Grandma, Aunt Jean, Uncle Jim, and Dad all sat at the same table as each other.

The Hot Tub
After dinner, Bailey, Tara, and I went into Ron and Harlen's hot tub(Grandma lives in a duplex so it wasn't hard to get to) We stayed in there for a long time. Even though it was hot, we went underwater. :) . We stayed until our eyes hurt from the clorine. We stayed out on the porch playing with the many wind chimes. There were tons!

At Church Today
Hannah
I was taking Bailey to her seat in the SEC when Hannah caught up and told me how she was helping out in the nursery today. I took Bailey to her seat and went to Discovery Land to help Hannah with the little preschoolers. We got to hang out with the 2 year olds and keep them calm and happy. For a while we were with the little babies, and one of them looked like Michelle from Full House. I was with Hannah and the little peoples for an hour and I went to the SEC to pick up Bailey. It was 30 minutes early, but I didn't want her to think I had left for good. When sevice let out, I took Bailey to the gym to wait for Mom.
Taylor
When she came out I saw her talking to someone...Whooppee....I knew it would be a while. But that was before I saw who it was. Mom stepped through the door and behind her was Taylor! Of course, a hug was in order. And of, course, Brenda was there and I gave her a hug. We got to talk with them and it was great. I haven't seen Taylor in a long time, so she looked different. But I still knew her!! hehehe!!! Eventually they had to go to Wal*Mart and Taylor was supposed to go 4-wheeling with Jenny.
It was still cool talking to them!

Hey guys! Sorry I haven't updated in a while. I've been here, I just can't think of anything to post. Well, I still can't think of anything to post so I'll make a list of strange things about my dogs.

Hey guys! Remember when I told you about my Grandpa going to the hospital? Well, he got out the next day, turns out he was just de-hidrated. (Is that how you spell it? I won the spelling bee, you'd expect me to know this stuff) Katy, Courtney, and their parents and brother went to a golf tournament yesterday and will be home tomorrow. When they get back, I think they're going somewhere else like Silver Dollar City or something, I dont know, I just read it on Courtney's Xanga.

I've been kept busy at VBS, but that's what I'm there for. What I do is I bring kids that have come out of couseling rooms (to be one-on-one explained what salvation is) and I take them to the group they go to. So my VBS schedule is, I sit through the first service and leave when the kids go up to the stage and are led to the couseling rooms. I look at their name tag and take them where-ever they need to go when they get finished. Then, I go to Bailey's class and help out. When all the activities are over I go back to the worship center for service. When that's over, we go wait for Dad. I'm staff, I'm allowed to get up and leave. lol :).

Lisa and I got to chat on messenger a minute a go, but she had to leave. And then she called me so I got to talk to her on the phone, she went to Harps. She's also going El Salvador next week. My cousin's friend Emily commented on my other post, :). And I commented on her xanga. I've met her before but it's been a long time. She's nice. Tay and Courtney finally updated their xanga's, YIPPEE!!! Jillian posted a few days ago, too. YAY!!!

Well, that's what's going on in my life! Will post more soon! Comment me! Sign my guestbook! Read all of my posts! Ya-da-ya-da!

Hey guys! Yesterday was veg day, today I'm booked! lol
Yesterday I got to relax, I watched Silent Predators on Sci-Fi, which was very good, and just vegged out. Well, today I went to church, excellent service, went to hastings,I have to get that Fear Street book I saw, went to Shanghai, excellent shrimp fried rice, and came home. Well, later today I'm going to Ms. Michelle's to help her with Alicia's birthday party, and after that going to help out at the kids' VBS. Our church has it every year, and it's really cool. I'm too old to go, so I volunteer to help out so I can still hear the services and sing the songs and stuff. I won't be home until about 8:45, which is when I will eat ice cream,do stuff on the computer, and go seepy-by. :) I have it all planned out.
And I still plan to read that Fear Street book! It's by R.L. Stine! MWAH HAH HAH!
I won't read Stephen King 'til I graduate! lol...I'll just watch his movies like Storm of the Century and Rose Red! (Awesome movies!)
Anyways, I'm real busy today! So while I'm gone, sign my guestbook, post a comment, vote in apoll, ya-da-ya-da, and I'll happily pretend I'm surprised when I get back! lol. But really, please leave a comment, sign my guestbook, do this do that, ya-da-ya-da.
Will post more soon!

Fireflies 'Til 8:45 part 1
When Katy asked me if I could come over, I lifted my self onto the fence and jumped off. We went over to Kye's swingset and just sat on the monkey bars and stuff so we could talk without making our legs tired. We were telling all these stories and talking (speaking our opinion...lol) and I told her the story of Mr. Whiskers. (sniff) Ah, what the heck, I'll tell you and then continue Fireflies 'Til 8:45.

Mr. Whiskers (sniff)
A good young chap, so to speak. His death brought many tears. (laughs too...but mostly tears) Found and "adopted" by Ms. Courtney and Myself. Here is how he was found.
I wasn't there the first second he was found, but came to be by him the rest of his life. Courtney, I believe, was the one who found in the small room. We were in the girl's bathroom when Courtney opened up the closet that held the big water holder thingy. (sniff) In there, were 2 crickets. One was to high to reach but the other one jumped right into our hands. He wasn't like all the small black crickets, he was a larger, yellow, squishy one, named Mr. Whiskers. (sniff) Hold on...(blows nose) Back to our story...We took him outside during our lunch break and played with him. The most delightful and trustworthy cricket I've ever met. Didn't even try to escape. We would play with him and show him to the other girls and let him play with them. After a couple days of doing this every lunch break, we took him outside again. (sniff...) Courtney, acting very "special" that day, wanted to see if he could fly. This next part you will read, if you're not bored out of your seats yet, is unbelievable. She threw him into the air right when a bee buzzed by. Mr. Whiskers landed on the back of the bee and "flew" off. This was a shock, and a laughing matter, to all of us girls that stood gazing into the sky...Poor boys had no idea what we were doing... Well, something had to be done, but it was impossible...Mr. Whiskers was gone. But we think the bee might have dropped him on the roof because that where he landed before taking off again. But, Mr. Whiskers was gone. That night I prepared a speech and invitations to his funeral, all planned by Courtney and I. At the funeral, Krista sneaked a ton of tissues and the bathroom was packed with all the girls in our grade, the grade below us, and the grade above us. Very odd... Everybody was "crying" and Krista, myself, and a couple others gave nice, long speeches about our loved and lost.

Fireflies 'Til 8:45 part 2
Anyways, Katy and I just talked about random things, Mr. Whiskers and her water thing that exploded in the basement. Eventually, the fireflies came out and it was time to act younger than our age! We got one cup and put it in the fort of the swingset. We ran around catching them in our hands and sticking them through the hole where the straw goes. Kye even dropped some food in there and they went crazy for it. On the outside of the cup you could see it lighting up. At the end of our hunt, when we had to go in, we opened up the lid where all 4 of us could see. Fireflies covered the walls of the cup and the food. Few flew out. Looking at them light up was so cool! We decided to dump them over the fence for the dogs to chase. They didn't eat them though. Birkleigh was amazed.

Other Stuff
Hey guys! Sorry if all of my posts seem long, trust me, no matter how weird the title might sound, I'll never put a boring story up here. Ok, so I have once, but only once! Well don't forget to sign my guestbook, vote in my poll (down by the google ads), visit my picture blog, and comment on this post and others.

I have a lot to tell you!

A Bee Sting
My idea of fun is jumping fences. I jumped my fence from the backyard into the front yard, like I usually do. I was running around up front, when a pain without desricption struck me. All I could do was fall to the ground. I didn't see a piece of wood on the ground, but I did see that we really need to mow. Yuck!!! Tall,uneven gras...Drives me crazy! In my foot was a cone-shaped stick-like thing-a-ma-bobber. My foot hurt too much to jump the fence again, so I went to the front door and knocked after pulling out the weird splinter thing. Dad let me in and looked at the swollen hole. He called up Mom and they realized it was a bee sting. I have never been stung before, so I was weirded out. I soaked my foot in some salt water and it hasn't hurt since.

A Twisted Wrist
As you probably know, Bailey's friend Alicia hung out here for a couple hours yesterday. I was in the living room when I heard some screaming sound. I wasn't sure if Bailey and Alicia were laughing or crying so I went out to check. When I heard it was crying, I called Mom. Apparently, Alicia had lost balance and bounced on Bailey's wrist. It was twisted or sprained or something and it still hurts her.

A Birthday
Today is my cousin sandra's birthday! She is turning 20 and she needs to update her xanga site.
Ahemm...lol. Oh well! She is a really great person and I hope she enjoys her birthday! And, in a few weeks she is going up to take care of her boyfriend after he has sinus sergery.

Strep Throat
My strep throat is better but I'm still on antibiotics.

Kidney Stones
Shouldn't a cousin know about her cousin? I just now found out Blane (my older cousin) had kidney stones on Sunday!!! Poor Blane! I'm mad because I just now found out today. :( My dad had kidney stones once and he said it really hurt! Apparently, Blanes didn't last that long, which is good.

A Busted Pipe
Mom left me and Bailey home alone while she went to Grandpas house not too long ago. I got a call from Katy telling me what Courtney found.
Courtney went downstairs to get something out of the storage room when Katy heard a loud scream. When Courtney had gone into her storage room she had found it filled with water and everything wet. Some pipe had busted and soaked everything. Right now they are removing things from their basement. And Katy just got home from a golfing trip. Great way to be welcomed back, huh?

An Awesome Restaurant
CAJUN COOKING! CAJUN COOKING!
We went to the most awesome restaurant today. We went to a place with the best New Orleans spicy Gumbo and Croffish, great service, and big windows! We went to...da-da-da-da! Cafe Rue Orleans. Cafe Rue Orleans was so good! I got fried croffish and french fries with really good seasoning. lol. Our waitress was really nice. And for the appatizer, the second best gumbo in the world! (Moms is the first) It was delicious. You should go there!
CAJUN COOKING! CAJUN COOKING!

A Lost Picture
I have this really cool program. I like making pictures for people in it. Well, I need a good (not blurry) picture of Sara so I can make something for her in it. 'Cause I love making stuff for her! And Katy, and everyone else! Well, the picture I want is from the spelling bee. And the pictures are on Dad's computer...somewhere. His hard drive is so big and he has a ton, I can't find it even with the search.

A Problem
I heard the phone ring multiple times in a row. Mom called me downstairs telling me she had to go. Apparently, somethings wrong with Grandpa. He said his hands were tingly, he was dizzy, and something else I cant remember. He drove himself to the hospital and they're keeping him over night. It's not a heart attack, but they think he might have developed diabetes. But they're not sure.

Red Beard
Never give a shih-tzuh spaghetti....
Just like always, I was giving leftovers to Toby and Ryleigh. Birkleigh is still a puppy so I couldn't give it to him. We had spaghetti for dinner so the leftovers were very red, and to the dogs, very heavenly. Birkleigh being his sneaky little self snuck over and ate some of the leftovers. His face was so full of spaghetti sauce it wasn't funny! I picked him up and he got it all over the shoulder of my shirt. Eeeww!!! He had to have his beard wiped off with water and rag, but he still has a little stain. He went from Long Beard the Pirate, to Red Beard the Pirate, and onto Wet Beard the Pirate.
Never give a shih-tzuh spaghetti...

Everything Else
My strep throat's almost gone. I'm not contagious and my throat doesn't hurt at all. But I'm still on antibiotics just in case it comes back. I'll be on them for a while, but that's ok. Bailey's friend, Alicia, is coming over tonight for a couple hours. The Aldens' fireworks are still booming in my head...grrrr...Katy's coming back from her trip today...yay! Well, there's a little review. Comment, vote in the poll, read every day,ya-da-ya-da-ya-da, brush your teeth at least twice a day and don't forget to wash your hands before meals.
Will post more soon!

A Personal Masseuse
Ok, so my masseuese isn't very well trained but he's good enough. He weighs about 10 pounds, somewhere around a foot long and is very hairy. Oh! And he is finally potty trained. He goes by the name of Bikleigh Birkenstock. Anyways, yah I figured out how to trick Birkleigh into giving me a massage. If I put my hand on head wiggling my fingers towards my back, he'll try to get them. In order to do that, he has to stand against my back. If I move my fingers up and down he'll try to go higher, so his paws move. And man, does it feel good!

2 Body Guards
Agent Toblerone
I asked Toby if he wanted a tennis ball, he said yes. Well, we went to DEALS NOTHING OVER A DOLLAR today and I got some tennis balls for Toby because he had said he wanted them. I thought they were in the car so I went outside to get them. Of course, Toby had to come with me and I didn't mind so I let him. He went out and did his bussiness. I couldn't find the tennis balls so I went next door to put Katys newspapers in her garage. Katys at a golf tournament or something so we're in charge of that. I asked Toby if he wanted to come with and he raced me over there and kept an eye on me. And he checked the yard to make sure no one had been invading their house.
Agent Shamus O'Ryleigh
When I was sick with a fever the other day, Ryleigh knew it was his duty to watch me. If he fell asleep, he would wake himself up, jump up, sniff me, then lay back down with his eyes glued to me. And if he heard a noise, he would go to my door and look out, then come back and lay down.

Jewelry and Handbag Warehouse
We went to the Jewelry and Handbag Warehouse today and it was so fun! I did not want to leave. Magic Scarves, earrings, cute purses, necklaces, and all that jazz were everywhere!!! It was so cool, but I only bought 2 things. I need to save so i can spend all my money next time! I got a cool blue bead bracelet and some hang down blue bead earrings that I saw on the Internet. Their website is really cool. So is the store! A bunch of stuff was on sale. All the stuff Mom had gotten had added up to 100 dollars, and she had to get rid of a lot. So she only ended up spending 60 some odd dollars. We also went to Shogun for lunch. It was awesome. And, of course, I had shrimp. We had an interesting day.

I don't think I've ever been sick on a holiday before. We were going to go to Ken and Shays party but there would be to many people we dont know and I have strep throat. At least it's not entirely my fault we're not doing anything besides listening to the Alden boys shout "FIRE IN THE HOLE" and "OW"! Last night Mom and I watched National Treasure, and it wasn't until the middle of the movie we realized we were watching a "patriotic" movie on a "patriotic" holiday..eve. It was my second time seeing it. That reminds me, I need to rent Rose Red. Oh well, I'll be reminded later. I was playing this fun game-like thing that Grandma sent me where you click and fireworks shoot. Not very challenging, just entertaining. It's weird, games will seem easy or boring, but you can sit there forever playing it. Like frogger, or another cool game Grandma sent me where you try to throw the wad of paper into the trashcan. Kind of weird... Anyways, have a great 4th everyone!
Oh say can you see...
By the dawns early light...
Ok I'm done.
Will post more soon.

In my world, there are two types of Arachnobia. There's Arachnophobia and my favorite, "Arachnophobia". The first one is something I don't havethat means scared-ness of spiders, or arachnids. I, for one, like spiders and don't mind having them around especially Daddy Long-legs (which aren't spiders) unlike Ross Jennings (played by Jeff Daniels, a very good actor). Hope I'm not confusing you. Which leads to the second Arachnophobia, which I don't have either and that is very sad. Arachnophobia is a great movie. In fact, I've seen it 4 times. But the bad thing is...I don't own it. Here's what it's about: Ross Jennings and his wife Molly, have just moved into an old house in a small country town from San Fransisco. They are settling in when multiple deaths occure. Ross is a doctor, so he has to run autospsys and la-di-da-di-dah. Ross finds out that these killings are from small spiders breeded from a large Venezualen spider in Rosses own basement. The queen had killed a scientist studying in Venezuela so the coffin had been sent to his hometown, the small country town Ross had just moved to. Sir Sneaky Spider had snuck into the coffin. This movie shows how they got rid of it and all the stuff they did. It's obviously fictional, but it's very good. It's one of my favorite movies. I highly recommend it.
I'm sick with strep throat and I have nothing to do. Well, I can watch movies and type on my blog. But anyways...I just got done watching Arachnophobia, that's why I brought it up. So if you're bored or sick, go to Hastings and pick up the Arachnophobia DVD and you'll see why I like it so much.

Yesterday morining I woke up with a sore throat. Oh well, take some motrin BOOM it's all over. Nope... This morning, wake up with a sore throat...we have a problem.

3 years ago, Mom had really bad pneumonia and then Bailey had pnemonia about a year or two later. A couple years ago Katy was in the hospital with really bad pneumonia. She was in the hospital before and after her birthday. Katy gets strep-throat almost every week. lol, just kidding, but they do get it alot, but not recently. At gymnastics, it was just me and Caden.
Last year, one of Bailey's friends got tonsilitis. And a few years ago Jewel, my cousins' dog got it.

This morning I went to the doctor. Dr. Robinson looked down my throat but didn't give me the strep test. He knew what it was...Strep Throat.

WOW! Can you believe it's already July? Summer just can't stay in one place. O well, the sooner summer is close to end, the sooner we get a CINNABON in the mall!!!! Yum...I love Cinnabon's cinnamon rolls. For now, when I go to the mall I'll just have to live off of Gloria Jeans. Which, is awesome too! Gloria Jeans' Coco Loco is the best! When Mom gets her nails done and we're too bored to stay home, we just go get a Coco Loco from Gloria Jeans and go to Claire's and look around. And stare at the future-cinnabon.

Note:
Claire's, Gloria Jeans, and Cinnabon ROCK!
