Miscellaneous

Well, I never thought I'd be saying this, but in the past week and a half, I've read seven science fiction books. They were amazing. The Shadow Children series by Haddix. And no, sci-fi isn't what I used to think it was. It includes all books that portray life with a different political scheme. They were neat books. Scary, I could see all of it happening, though. Haddix is a superb storyteller.

For those of you who like pictures, I took lots of them at MissJo's concert last Sunday, but it might take me a while to get them down here. We're back to the long journey to get them from the camera to this computer because our card reader hasn't been being very nice lately. I'll try to get them down here soon.

For those of you who like videos and those of you who like music, here's one that I found the other night. It's really sweet.



Well, that's all for now. If I can get the pictures onto this computer, I'll try to post them soon.

Just so y'all know I haven't completely abandoned my camera. Enjoy!

Tag!

I've been tagged by Mrs. S! So, here it goes. :)


Do you have any special Christmas goodies that you like to make every year?

Last year I made sugar cookies for our neighbors, and I'm looking forward to doing that again this year.

Do you send Christmas cards? Photo? Letter?

We give cards to the neighbors with their cookies. In the past, my wonderful sister MissJo has put together a letter and rounded us all up for a photo, but we haven't done that in a couple of years.


Do you have a favorite Christmas or birthday gift that you received as a child?


I loved my American Girl doll that my grandparents got for me on my birthday. I also loved my stuffed little black puppy my other grandparents gave me.


What was your favorite subject in school? Is it your favorite to teach?

I'm really enjoying my speech class, I love violin, and I'm actually enjoying Spanish. And I've never taught anything, so I wouldn't know.


Are you a morning person or a night person?

Definitely a night owl.


What is one thing you wish you had more time to do?

I don't wish I had more time to do anything. Twenty four hours in a day is plenty for me.


What is your favorite flavor of ice cream?

Chocolate chip cookie dough.


Do you make your bed every day?

Nope.


Well, I'm off to write my speech that I have to give on Friday. G'night!

Yay!

I finished my first 5k! Congrats to all y'all who also ran! Y'all did great! I had a ton of fun. Can't wait til next year now! :)

New Car!

We got a new car! Well, a four year old new car. ;) Our old car isn't in safe driving condition any more, so after three and a half weeks of car shopping, we finally found our match! I think it's the prettiest car we looked at. I can't wait until I can drive it! :) I just got done giving it a car wash, so it's all pretty. The yearly pest inspection guy is here right now, but once he's gone, I'll go out and snap some pictures for y'all. When I'll actually post them might be another thing, though...

Whew


Well, I've had a pretty busy day so far. I got up this morning and went and gave a speech to five judges. We'll see if I can get the video up here, maybe... It didn't turn out as good as my practice speech did. Anyways, I came home and decorated a cake for frisbee tonight (see above picture). It took me a little over an hour. Now we're getting ready to have frisbee. Busy, but fun. :)
