Florida post 4

There's not much to post, but I'm bored, so I'ma post anyways.
Yesterday, me and Rachel pretty much just stayed in her room for the entire day and didn't really do anything. We were going to go on a bike ride, but then it started raining :( Then Mr. Daddy rented the 2nd and 3rd Pirates of the Caribbean movies, so we watched the 2nd one, then went to bed.

And today, we haven't really done anything either. We had doughnuts for breakfast (which, might I add, were delish!) and then kinda just did whatever. Then we watched the third POC and it was awesome but had an ending that needed to be continued in my opinion, but it won't be :(  The fourth POC is coming out in May of next year, but it won't be continuing the story... It's just about Jack, and I'm pretty sure its based off a book, and Will, Elizabeth, and Regetti aren't going to be in it!!! :( So it's not really Pirates of the Caribbean...

Oh, today, The Last Airbender came out!! I really want to see it. We MIGHT go see it tomorrow. Well, that's mine and Rachel's plan. We haven't talked to her parents about it yet, lol. But, hopefully we can.

My mom called a couple days ago, and she took Jesse to the vet, and she has hookworms and heart worms but I don't think it is that bad. But I'ma pray that it won't get worse. Especially the heartworms, because mom said it could get worse and it would be really expensive to do something about it. Oh, and Maddie is pregnant again.. I need to quickly find homes for her kittens Kylie and Jinx. Then, after she has this next litter, we're getting her fixed! Then I gotta find homes for them... :\ I'm attached to Kylie and Jinx though, so it's going to be hard to give them up :( But I have to...

So far, it's been eight days that me and Rachel have been together, and we haven't gotten on eachother's nerves that bad, so that's good. We came up with this lil thing to do everytime we start to argue or something, and it's really funny so we just laugh and forget about what we were arguing about :) Still got like a week left with eachother though.. But I think we can make it :) On our way back, we will be stopping at Rachel's reletives house in Georgia. Yup.

I'm bored, lol. I wish I had more to post about, but I can't really think of anything. Except that I'm listening to this song called "Somebody Out There" by David Archuleta, and I really like it!! Here, check it out:



It gives me a slight idea for a book or something. I hope it works out :) If I even start it, lol. I hope I will. I've been thinking about starting a story for a while now, and have been playing with different ideas, but haven't figured out a story line. I haven't even written anything down yet, lol.

One last thing before I go. I have decided to become a pirate.

Happy VEERRY belated "wear-green-or-get-pinched" day!!!

Happy (very belated) Patty's Day!! I started writing this post on the 18th, but never finished. So. Yeah. Anyways. I'll get on with it. MMkay. Yup. Here I go. Gettin closer. Almost there. Yup. Uh huh. So... I better get started now. ANY minute now... Come on. Out with it. Where do I start? I'll start here:

Fish & Crabs
You probably remember me telling you about my fish, Fabio, and previous posts. Well, he went on to a better place. Well.. I guess he did, I don't really know if there is a fishy heaven or not.. but let's just hope there is. :) I might get one more fish, I am not sure. But as soon as I scrap together a few more bucks, (and knowledge about crabs) I'm gonna get myself a couple of crabs. NOT hermit crabs, just regular teensey little crabs.


Book
You might have read on my writing blog that I was writing a book (I posted chapter one) and that I was pretty sure I was going to finish this one. Well guess what? I haven't yet. I came up with a new idea *rolls eyes*. I will go back another time and finish that one I started, but I came up with a new one that is probably going to be called 'The Darkest Valley'. I have written part of the epilogue (ya know the "chapter" that goes before the actual chapters :P first time I've ever written one, but this book needs one). I will post the epilogue on my writing blog after I finish it. I still haven't completely gotten what I want the book to be about yet, but I'm working on it. I am definitely not going to write the regular chapters until I figure out exactly what I want (which I might change later on). I just know exactly what I want the epilogue to be, that's the only reason I've already started that part.
The main character's name is Travis Cape Summers. He got his middle name from the island he was born on -- Cape Island. It will be mostly an adventure book. I just haven't quite figured out what I want to happen in the book.
Oh, I am putting up a poll on my blog (top left) for you to vote on which name I should use for Travis's adventure buddy. Their both 15 (the one with the name ur gunna vote for is a girl fyi), and the girl is really adventurous. I really want you to vote on it. Thanks!!


Heartland Books
Me and my friend Jana are reading the Heartland series. They are these really good horse books about a horse place called Heartland that rescues horeses and cures problem horses. The main character is Amy Fleming, and she looooves horses. Here is what the back of all the books say:

"Heartland is a horse farm nestled in the hills of Virginia, but it's much more than that. Heartland is a place like no other - a place where the scars of the past can be healed, a place where frightened and abused horses learn to trust again."

What do ya think? Sound interesting? I have read all 22 (I think that's how many...) of the books before, but I am starting over again and I am on book #5. Don't tell my mom, but I stayed up till 4 am last night reading the whole 4th book :P


Pictures
Here are some random pictures I've taken this month:

Merry Belated Christmas!!

Before you handcuff me and throw me in jail, I can explain!! Honestly, I can. :) I had to hurry up and pack and stuff on Christmas day cause we were going to see our grandparents (we call our Grandma, Nonnie btw). It took 4-5 hours to get there, so it was dark by the time we got there I was really tired. We watched tv for a few minutes then decided to open our presents.

None of our other family came (too far away) and Nonnie didn't even have a Christmas tree. It wasn't much of a Christmas.. we usually would be visiting our other grandparents, for a fairly big Christmas, but their in Utah on a mission trip, and they won't be back until Febuary, so we didn't get any presents from them this year :( Nonnie handed me my present and Adam his, and Mom hers. Adam opened his, and it was a remote control helicopter (NOT actual size :P). I took a while, and finally opened mine. It was an awesome pair of shoes!! I would have taken a pic, but my camera broke AGAIN (for the 4th time) so I'm getting a new one, and it hasn't come in yet. :( So i'll just put a pic of a shoe that's like mine that I got off the internet:

Well, that's what they look like, cept mine are darkish blue, and they look better :) Yesterday, me, Adam, Nonnie, and Mom went to Wal-mart, and I got some cool jeans that came with a belt and an AWESOME hoodie! When I get my camera, I'll take a pic and show it to you :) Adam got 2 pairs of jeans (one came with a belt :P) and a cool t-shirt. I couldn't find any good shirts for me at Wal-mart :'( but I was lovin my hoodie! It is SOOO warm! Thin, but WARM!

Then we came home and at some point we had our "day after Christmas dinner" :P. After dinner, me and Luke needed to get away so we headed to the little town. It was dark, and a strange place, but oddly.. we didn't get lost :P. Anyways, we stopped at 'Hastings' which is a movie/CD/book/magazine store. Me and Luke looked at CD's for a few mintues, and finding none we wanted, went our seperate ways. Not sure where he went... but I went...around looking for a book to buy. I REALLY wanted the 2nd Twilight book (I've only read the 1st one, and I couldn't wait till Wednesday to borrow it from my friend), but it was $20 and I only had $14. :( I spent an hour looking for a book, and I finally found one in the Christian section.

It's called "Every Now & Then" by Karen Kingsbury. I didn't know it until I bought the book (which cost $17... I borrowed a few from Luke :D), but it's the last book in a series of three books... I've read 4 chapters, and it's pretty good so far! Here is the description of the book:

'A wall went up around Alex Brady's heart when his father, a New York

firefighter, died in the Twin Towers. Turning his back on the only woman

he ever loved, Alex shut out all the people who cared about him to concentrate

on fighting crime. He and his trusty K9 partner, Bo, are determined to

eleminate evil in the world and prevent tragedies like 9/11.

Then the worst fire season in California's history erupts, and Alex faces

the ulitmate challenge to protect the community he serves. An

envromental terrorist group is targeting the soul, Alex is

determined to infiltrate the group and put an end to their

corruption. Only the friendship of Clay and Jamie Michaels - and the

love of a dedicated young woman - can help Alex drop the walls around

his heart, and move forward into the future God has for him.'

Sound interesting? I thought it did. The book actually caught my attention because there is a dog on the cover of the book :P then I read the description and thought it sounded really interesting, so I bought it! When I finish the book, I'll do a book report on my writing blog. It has a pretty cool cover. Here's a pic of it I found on google images:

Anyways, today I slept in as usual, and when I got up, I ate breakfast (capn' crunch) and got on the computer (the laptop. we brought it with us) and was typing up this post until the battery went dead, and I couldnt get the charger to work. So I called Mitch and we talked some, and she told me about a book she read, and then I had to eat lunch (a late lunch) so I got off the phone, and ate lunch and got back on the laptop (I got the charger to work. it just needed to be reajusted..). Then I continued on this post and that's about it!

Well, I don't have anything else to say, so I think I'll sign off blogger for a while, call Mitch back, and play the song "Seventeen Forever" by Metro station, cause it's stuck in my head and I really like that song :P TTYL!

Bloggin out,

IDK what to title this post

Last night, Amy (see picture below) one of our dogs, got sprayed by a skunk! I could smell it from upstairs, and since my window was open, I figured it was coming from outside. Mom called me from downstairs saying something was wrong with Amy or something like that. So I went down, and Amy had been rubbing all over the carpet, and her bed. I was like, "well DUH! Can you smell the stink? She must have gotten sprayed by a skunk, and is trying to get the stink off her!!"









I gave her a bath today, but she doesn't stink any less :( It smells worse than the time several years ago, when I brought a skunk in the house saying, "MOM! Look what I found!!" those memories crack me up!!

Today, one of my mom's piano students, brought their little adorable 9 week old white-with-black-patches Shih-tzu puppy named Lily (the same name as my rabbit!). She is SOO CUTE! Below are the only pictures I could get of her, because she was running around like crazy.

I have a video on my camera of her running around outside with Ranger and Amy, but this dang computer won't let me put the video on the computer, and I don't know why!! :( Maybe it will work later, and if it does, I'll post it then.

That's about it, so.. NO! Wait:

Yesterday, I finally got my 'Matter of Trust' and 'Not Without Courage' books in! OK, I know you have no idea what I'm talking about. Ya see: Sometime last year I think, when Mitch came and visited me, she brought along a book by the name of 'Word of Honor'. The book was the first book in the 'Shawdow Creek Chroincles'. I read most of it when she was here, and I loved it! I didn't have time to finish it, but when I visited her house in August, I did finish it. The following book is titled 'Matter of Trust', then 'Not Without Courage', and the last one is 'Strength and Glory'.

Mitch didn't have any of the other books, and we were dying to find out what happened. About a week or two ago, Mitch ordered the book 'Matter of Trust'. Not to long after that, I orderd 'Matter of Trust' 'Word of Honor' (since I didn't own it, although I have read it) and 'Not Without Courage'. I would have bought the last one, but It was $8, and I didn't want to spend anymore $$. I will buy it after I read the other books.

Mitch waited until I got my books before she started reading 'Matter of Trust'. When I got my book, I called Mitch and said really quickly, "GUESS WHAT? GUESS WHAT? GUESS WHAT!??!"
And she's like, "You got your book in!?
And I'm like, "YESS!!!!!!" or something like that.
So I went inside, and picked up my book (still on the phone with Mitch). We decided to take turns reading. I read one sentece, then Mitch read the next. Then I read the next sentence, then Mitch would read the one after that. And it continued on till my bedtime, and we had read 3 chapters! It took a while... LOL!

Last night, I read three more LOOONG chapters (staying up till1 something AM). Right now, I am Instant Messaging (IMing) Mitch right now, and she's catching up on reading. She is somwhere in chapter 5, which is a LONG chapter. Here's a sideways pic of the book:










And one of the pages, lol











Bloggin out,


P.S. I will post what the book is about in another post. No. Wait. I'll post it on my writing blog eventually. Maybe now. IDK
