Just a place to spill my thoughts, and inform any friends interested in being updated on my life.

Enjoy!:D
Ok, a much more complete post about our dog. Daddy just appeared with her after work last week, to the complete shock of us all. I mean, we've been begging him for YEARS to get a dog. And suddenly there she is!:-D She was a stray who'd been hanging around the house where Dad was working.
From a good friend who knows alot about dogs, we found that she's about 11 months old and is half collie and half German shepherd. (although my Gramps doesn't think she's german sheperd [from seeing pictures of her] he says shepherd mix maybe) *shrugs*
Anyways, she was being called Lily, but we changed it to Lady. She's a all around GREAT dog. Doesn't hardly bark, doesn't jump, or lick much. Like every human and animal she does have her faults. Hers is that she likes to kill chickens and rabbits. My friend told me that's just a simple matter of teaching her to "protect" instead of "attack". She told me how to do that, and I've already begun.
I got permission from the neighbors to take Lady down there around their free roaming chickens, ducks, geese, and rabbits. I also want to take her to some friends house where they can hold the chickens and I can bring her closer to them. I'm sure it will come in time. I'm very pleased how she's learning "come" in just two days. I think I'm going to work her on a longer line. We keep her on a 15ft. leash otherwise she'll run down to the neighbors.:/
Each day I fall deeper in love. We're growing quite a bond. I really love her. I'm just afraid we'll get ahold of the owners and they'll want her back. But if so, it was all God's will, and obviously He wanted to teach me something through all this.
One great thing about having Lady, is that I get outside more, and I've been getting regular excercise every day. She's my responsiblity to train, I've been taking her around the property line a couple times a day to teach her her bounderies. I'll surely keep you informed on my "baby". I'll have to scan some pictures of her.
Other updates: Latin's going well, I'm at chpt. 5, though I missed this week's assignment, just too much going on. Flute is going great though! I've had 4 lessons, and just switched to getting lessons on Monday instead of Tuesdays. It was my teacher's choice, we'll see if it works better or not. She says I've got the best sound she's ever heard for someone who's only had 4 lessons. I'm really loving the flute the more I play it.
Anyhow, I'd better be going. Gram's trying to take a nap, and I need to watch Hosanna. So long!
I suppose Truepath wasn't joking when they said they were going to shut down their free accounts. Now, I'm quite lost. I lost all my pictures, can't use my other blogger, etc.:/
I have to go, but WE GOT A DOG!!! More details later!
Cya!
Well, I suppose since someone (else) is linking me to their blog, I had better update, no?
Well, it snowed last night!! We're gotten maybe an inch, but it's more than we've gotten in a long time!! It's enough to cover the ice anyways!
Yesterday two of my brothers and I had to walk all the way down our road/hill (over a mile) to escort our sister down to meet my Gram, with whom she was going to stay the night. Then we had to walk all the way back up. Then later I split some wood, for which I have the sore back muscles to prove!
I've very pleased to announce that I have my newsletter nearly ready to get printed! That will be a BIG relief. Just a few more things to finish up, and I'm waiting one something, then I can get it printed and mailed off! Hopefully all within in the next two weeks.
Ciao!
I'm going to meet her!!! TODAY!! Oh my! This will be my first time ever meeting a pen pal!! I talked to her on the phone for the first time last night, she has a nice voice. Anyhow, I'm at Gram's, going to work this morning, then go meet up with her this afternoon! I couldn't even sleep last night!! Later.
How come it always works for others to go hundreds of miles to meet friends, and I can't even go 50? Ok, so the short notice has something to do with it. Sorry, guys, just a friend is in a town 50 miles from us, just today and tomorrow, I didn't find out until just a few min. ago. And Dad's going to be gone tomorrow, and I don't Mum wants to go in there, she didn't sound like it. Ohhhh, I'm VERY VERY bummed. Oh well, it's not the end of the world, I suppose.:(
I'm about fed up to here *indicates two feet above head* with doing this book keeping. It's not hard, nor frusterating, just tedious, boring, and just, well, blah! I'm SO glad we're leaving in a half hour to go to town and have pizza, and I get to see my brother! Ahhh, this stuff just never, never ends! I go home tomorrow, but there's no way we'll be done. Gram's already trying to schedule me another day to come in. But I've got a GRAND idea I'm going to ask Gram about, if only, ONLY it would work, I declare I'll be floating in the clouds! *g*
About time for an update? It's just been a month a 5 days, but who's counting?
Today was rather fun! We met Gram in Palmer, then I drove her over to the B's, cause the suburban was messing up and we wanted the B. boys to look it over. We (Mum, Amy, Aaron, nana & I) then rode with Gram to run a few errands. We stopped in a mall cause we wanted to check out the christian bookstore, and Walden Books was having this great sale! Gram was so sweet, and bought Amy and I the books we wanted! We got 3 idiot guide books on, needlepoint, photography, and writing. And I got a 500+ page journal! Egrad! I can't wait till I finish my current one so I can start it! Then at JoAnn's I used some of my gift card to buy Aida cloth and thread to cross stitch! Then I came here to Gram's to help her with some book keeping. That went smoothly for a few hours (after we figured out how we wanted to do it) and now Gram's gone to bed, and I'll be heading that way shortly. I'll be going home either tomorrow or the next day.
Oh, and Daddy's out of town, on a job!:( He was gone most of last week, came home for the Sabbath then went back up this time for probably over a week! I miss him!
If I don't watch it I'm just going to start rambling nonsense, I really should be in bed. I leave you with this thought, A girl from CA thinks I'm plum crazy for walking in the snow in barefeet!:D
“Hey Laura, they’ve got Rich Mullin’s CD “Songs” here.” Explained my sister on the phone. “Buy it!” was my instant response. After copying all the B’s CD’s for them, and hearing “Songs” I’ve been wanting to get it. She called today, and I’m so looking forward to hearing it. Rich Mullins is the man who wrote the song, “Awesome God”, unfortunately I just found out the other day he died in a car wreck in 1997.
Tomorrow I might possibly be getting my pictures taken. I’m waiting for a call back from them, confirming my app. or not. (they’re on lunch break) Once I get those back I’ll be ready to send off the announcements. (at last)
Dad’s been able to stay at home, so has mad some progress on the house. We’ve now got a kitchen sink, our second frig. hooked up in the kitchen, etc. Then he got the vinyl floor put in the powder bathroom downstairs. Mum’s really looking forward to having a toilet downstairs. Dad has had the walls painted a light beige in there for a while, yesterday Mum sponged on some pink just on the upper half of the walls. So it looks kind of like pink clouds. I’m not that fond of pink myself, but she used just the creamy soft kind of pink I dislike the most. lol But doesn’t concern me much! (the upstairs bathroom is blue, are we doing opposite colors or what?)
Have a great day!
Seems ages since I posted here, eh? Not my fault this time, mwha! Let's see what's happened.
I passed all 5 of the GED tests, and recieved my high school diploma! Yippee! Amy hung it up on the wall, but as soon as I thought we were having company I snatched it down and put it back in the envelope. *g*
Mum is especially excited now that we have our kitchen and dining floors in!!:D In the kitchen we used three different vinyl tiles. One is a whitish (which will eventually mostly be covered by cabinets), and then we checkerboarded the green, and what my Dad calls "spice" (it's a tannish-beige with different color speckles). The dining room is just regular vinyl, it has squares with a little design in the corners. Oh, and Dad got the green and purple backsplashes glued on the walls too! It's looking really nice!
Lately I've been trying to get my letters replied to. I also need to get pictures taken, announments done, etc. Well, life goes on! G'day!
and so here is! I'm at my Gram's, tomorrow to go into my Aunt's. Why, you ask? Because, I say! *ahem* Anyhow, because I'm taking the GED!! AH! I took the orientation tonight, which all in all went well. I signed up for the five tests, which while I'm pretty low on a couple of the lists, the lady seemed confident I'd get in all right if I came a bit earlier. (she said normally half the people don't show up anyhow) I'll be at my Aunt's till Fri. taking two tests in the meantime. She did mention, my taking a break from studying one day and climbing a mountain!! I'm looking forward to that, hope it works out! All for now, must retire!
Dad's started taping the kitchen/dining room! Who knows, he has probably come a good ways in the last few days. I hope it's going well for him!
I've been working for my Gram since Sunday, and will go home tomorrow. This is good, I needed some dough!
These two weeks coming up are going to be super busy (and stressful) ones, and I'm not going to be home much. Yikes!
The leaves are beginning to turn yellow, the ferns turning brown. Ah, indeed. We haven't started getting that cool, crisp, freshness in the air --which I so like--yet though.
Today is rather sunny, with a wind blowing. My type of day. I do so enjoy a windy day!
We've been keeping busy moving into the house. Long process, but enjoyable, in a sense!
Rain, rain, rain, will it ever stop?
I'm sure there's some people who wonder if it will ever start though! hehe
No matter who you might be, if you read this blog, please post here! Thanx!
*chuckles* Dad's always done all the painting around here, I suppose he wanted to make sure it got done right. However with him being so busy, plus leaving Tuesday (that's the plan now anyhow) he agreed to letting Mum, and I paint the floors! Amy is also helping. The first coat is called Slate gray. I painted 3 rooms plus part of the hall, meanwhile Amy and Mum painted the other two rooms upstairs.
We'll finish the hall once everyone's showered, and Dad can stand being barred from his office for a few days!;) Then we've got to shop vac the stairs, and sweep the downstairs before we can paint it. Ya know what? I do believe I like painting!:D
The last few days have been extremely lovely hot days. The day before yesterday we have a great water fight, and got soaked. I kept the shirt on for hours which kept me cool!:D Then yesterday we went to the lake. We didn't unload the canoe, because there was some jet skiies there, but did have fun swimming and jumping off the dock. Using our new little nets and hands, we caught a whole slew of little fish, plus 15 little and two bigger frogs! T'was enjoyable. We also went by the library! Yay!;)
Well, back to work for me it is!
Cya!
I plan on this post covering from where I last updated, and bringing you up to the point where we went camping. Then once I get the camping post done, I may go ahead and post it, then post the pictures later. For Mum wasn’t able to drop them off yesterday, so who knows when they’ll get dropped off, picked up, scanned, and uploaded. (Blah, what a bother!;))
I suppose if this is going to be a full report, I should start back at Spot. It was just quite a shock that she died, she seemed to be doing rather well. Along with her brother (whom I sold), she was my very first rabbit, in fact my very first pet (besides fish). And she’s my very first adult rabbit I’ve had die. Here I’d been trying to prepare myself for Rustco’s death (as he’s rather ancient) but was in no way expecting this. She was just 5 years old. It was hard, and I’ll never forget her, or the pain, but I’m moving on now. It’s healing, though I can’t say I wouldn’t mind putting a bullet between that bears eyes.
As I mentioned afore, we were clearing out the house and Dad was laying the tubing down and all. Sunday the 22nd rolled around and we weren’t quite ready for the gypcrete the next day. Plus that day we picked Andy up, along with 26 salmon that was his part of the fish he’d caught with my Aunt, and her in-laws. Dad picked up the two B. boys, and one helped Andy cut up the fish, and the other helped Dad lay tubing. The rest of us made ourselves useful washing and preparing jars and the canners, vacuuming the house, handing fish to the boys, making brine, etc. By the time they left around 11, the fish was all cut, and we were ready for the gypcrete!
That night we canned two loads of fish, and the following day we filled both of our smokers full. Those two loads we froze, and the next we canned. We also canned another load of fresh fish. That keeps people busy, and smelly!;)
On the 23rd it took 5 men + machinery two+ hours to gypcrete nearly our entire house, after it had taken my family weeks to totally clean out, lay tubing, etc. in preparation for it. (funny how that works) It was *such* a relief, and weight off everyone’s mind when that was completed. I mean this has been something we’ve been thinking on, not bringing heavy stuff into the house yet, etc. for. It looks really nice now too.
Once it’s been 10 days, and Dad has the opportunity he’s going to paint the floors, which probably won’t be till Sunday. He’s got a lot of jobs going, and plans on leaving this coming Monday for Holy Cross, for two weeks. Once he gets back he’s already got 3 or 4 jobs lined up!
After that we got busy preparing to go camping. After moving most of our stuff out to the trailer, Amy and I had to move most of it out again to order to go camping.:p
On Friday, we (Mum, Amy, Isaac, Hosanna, and I) went into Anchorage. I had an eye appointment where I found out that my eye vision had not changed (in about a year and a half), and that I am a wimpy blinker (lol, meaning my left eyelid only partially closes). I went ahead and ordered new glasses, since these need replacement. We also ordered new glasses for Isaac. We were gone from about 8-8! (blah!) Anyhow, I’m glad I went because I was able to get a few things I’ve really been wanting to get. Such as something for two people I know, they have the last initials E. and P.:D Now if I can just get them packaged and mailed off sometime in the near future!:p I do so hope they like them.
Then Saturday night we were off! But that’s for a different post! Shall close now, hope this wasn’t too long.
We arrived back home yesterday evening. I think t'was one of our best camping trips, however that may be due to the fact we haven't gone on one in years!:p Anyways, my digicam is broke, but we took something like 4-5 rolls of film on the trip. Mum's dropping them off today. I think I'll work on a post, then once we get the pictures I'll scan 'em, and work them into the post, we'll see. Well, I'm watching two (mischievous) brothers, so best go. G'day mateys!
i'm a rabbit.what kinda pet are you?
quiz made by muna.
Out of all the surveys I've ever taken, I do believe I like these results best of all. Don't you think it fits me? I just thought it really neat here I am, an avid rabbit-lover, and it says I'm a rabbit!:D (and I didn't tell it either)
This one was too funny to pass up!:p I left the last question blank though!;-)
i'm a mascara. what type of make up are you?
quiz made by muna.
LOL!!
We're at my Gram's right now, heading out the door. Heading out camping (which we haven't done in a few years) should be back Monday night or Tues. I've been meaning to update, sorry. Must go! Bye!
Take the Bear Quiz by Krysten
Take the Purrsonality Quiz!
Spot's dead.
These last couple of days, have been buusssyyy! We are getting the entire house (minus basement, and the few rooms we've done) gypcreted next Tuesday. So, we've having to practically move EVERYTHING out! Yipes! We've got the parents room cleaned out (was overflowing with boxes, tubs, etc.) and Dad even got the tubing laid in there. The little boys are moved out, and another bedroom. Amy and I are pretty much moved into the travel trailer, just got to finish our room up and sweep it tomorrow. I've got my desk yet to do, which I'm dreading. After the gypcrete, but before Dad leaves for Holy Cross, he's planning on us going to Whittier! (via a tunnel you have to pay for, it's long, never been thru it) We've been wanting to do this for months!! Yippee!
Today was FUN! The well diggers that did our well a year and a half ago (which Amy and I had a snowball fight with), were up here digging our neighbors a well. Well, today we got in a rip-roaring water fight with them(and their kids)! It was a blast! Everybody got drenched. They said I was the champion! lol I'm not sure why, Amy says it's cause I had the only 5 gallon bucket!:p (everyone else mostly had gallon jugs) And the one guy, is going to buy 1, possibly 2 of my bunnies when they're ready to sell in about 3 weeks!:D Mesa happy!
Oh, and something else I found out. Rachel (B.) told me that Jennifer was trying to match me up with Rachel's bros!!! And she called me 'plain'. Rachel told her that I may be plain on the outside, but not on the inside. She said, that actually I was a little weird on the inside!:p lol It kinda cracked me up.
I was telling Amy that people like Rob (well diggers son, probably mid-teens) don't make sense to me. They are content with just watching the action, but not getting involved and getting wet themselves. (though I got him good a few times;)) Then I said, that he probably can't make sense of me either. (I meant people like myself) Then added, "Though not many people can make sense of me"!
And with that thought I shall leave you. Amy's waiting for me out in the trailer, so we can play monopoly before hitting the sack. G'nite!
I’m really glad I got to go, it was great. It was also pretty crazy though. I mean we were gone under 24 hours, went over 650 miles, and only got about 5 hrs of sleep. Dad said he bet that three generations ago, my Grandma didn’t go that far in a year! *grins* Probably so, we’re pretty spoiled nowadays. (though my sleep deprived body is yelling, “ya right! They slept back then!!”) Well, I promised details, so here ya go. My Dad is an Electrical Contractor and has an out-of-town job coming up in “Holy Cross” which is a village in central Alaska. He missed the barge (not his fault), so had to take all his material up to Fairbanks, where a chartered plane will fly it there. (He leaves Aug. 5th for the job) He wasn’t able to get a hold of the guy until last minute, so we had to hurry and take pictures of his materials, pack it in boxes, tape ‘em up, and put labels on them. Dad was in the cabin getting ready to leave and called me, I ran in, and he asked, “Do you want to go with me, Laura?” He had previously said he wasn’t taking anyone with him, so took me by surprise. I responded with an eager, “Sure!” “Get ready then.” Boy, I flew then, I couldn’t believe it! I ran over to the house, hurriedly wrote my last post there, then packed a change of clothes (just in case) and a few books, my camera and was set. Mum got home from town just a few minutes before we left. We left at 8:30pm and had to have the material at the airport at 7am. I remembered it took us about 6 ½ hrs last time, so figured we’d be there about 3am. Being so tired, I don’t remember too much about the trip there. I think I was the tiredst at 10:30, then I started singing along to the CD with Dad, and I believe even though I was beat, God kept me awake and my eyeballs peeled. We did see a moose cross the road a ways in front of us once, and I saw three rabbits alongside the road, and Dad saw a coyote! Dad drove for 5 hours then was so exhausted he finally agreed to let me drive. I then drove the last 90+ miles, about 2 hrs. Due to road construction and all, we didn’t arrive till close to 3:30. After we found where we were to drop the stuff off, Dad drove around trying to find us a place to park for a few hours. He finally parked in the Fred Meyer’s parking lot, and we attempted to sleep. (Ha!) Later, on the way home I told Dad we learned an important lesson. He acted shocked, “What? You’ve got to be kidding!” I then went to say, “We found out vans may be good for driving, and getting places, but they aren’t so great for sleeping!” To which he agreed with a, “Yeah!” Dad realized how vital it was that we got a few hours of sleep in order for us to be able to travel home, so we went over to see how much “Pike’s Waterfront Lodge” charged for a room. Yipes! I couldn’t believe it, but he paid 100 bucks for a room with two beds! Later he said, “Well, that probably wasn’t the best $100 I’ve spent, but it was a good one.” “If I hadn’t gotten that room,” he went on to say, “we would have been in a real mess.” (meaning we would not have lasted the 6 ½ hrs home thus sleep deprived) I was a little awed at how fancy the place was, however it didn’t slow me from climbing in bed much. It was after 4 by the time we got a room. It took me a while to fall asleep, but then I didn’t wake up until Dad woke me up to go down and get some breakfast(free breakfast came with the room). It was about a quarter after 7, and he’d just gotten back from taking his stuff to the airport. My stomach did awake enough to eat a plate. Afterwards we went back up to our room, where Dad said he was going to try to take a nap, if he could we’d leave once he woke up, if not we’d leave then. By then it was about 8:30, when asked I said I was going to try to go to sleep, but didn’t think I’d be able to. Not wanting to take my shoes off I lay across the bed, and it didn’t take me that long to fall asleep.:D I woke up a few times, it was kind of uncomfortable, and I slept with my arms under me because it was kind of chilly. Well, after about an hour I looked over to see Dad under the covers, so then I took my shoes off, and crawled under the covers. The next thing I knew it was 11:30, and Dad was telling me he was ready to leave. After checking out, we hit McDonald’s for some grub, and then got on our way. I believe Dad was in more of a hurry to get home, for he drove faster, and never offered to let me drive. (I didn’t ask) The only wildlife we saw besides birds were a black bear that crossed the road ahead of us, and a squirrel. There was lots of traffic though! Dad was passing motorhomes, or similar vehicles left and right. At one point he said, “Motorhomes are such a nuisances! Until I get mine, they shouldn’t even by allowed on the road.” *chuckles* (that’s my Dad for ya) One time we’d just passed a couple of vehicles and came around the corner to see a couple more in the distance. Dad looked over to see my laughing silently. He said, “It’s just a game, Laura.” I was a bit puzzled by that, until he went on to explain that he could drive fast and pass all them, and then get to town 5 min. faster then them!:-p He wasn’t very happy when they’d go under the speed limit, or slowly pull out in front of him though. After stopping at the grocery store for Mum, we got home about 6:30. Thus ending our fun, if not crazy and tiring time. As you can see, going anywhere with Dad is always great fun! He’s got the greatest sense of humor. The only downside was we didn’t get to see my Uncle and Aunt who live there. Ah well, there’s always next time!:D
My love to you all! I'm to be off with my Dad to Fairbanks (6hr. drive one way) within the hour! Spent the last hour in hurriedly packing boxes, taping labels, taking pictures. Now must pack myself, didn't know I was to go till about 5 min. ago! More details upon my arrivial back home tomorrow. No sleep for me tonight! Whee!
Everything has been adding up, and it’s really wearing on me. First this ongoing situation with a friend and her brother, then my dear Spot, and now this terrible tragedy with Mer. Oh, how awful! Now to top it off, (or because I’m worn down?) I’ve got a nasty cold that’s just making me miserable.
I can’t get thoughts of Mer or things pertaining to him out of my head, it consumes me. Sometimes I’ll forget about it for a while, then I’ll remember, or read something and I’m right back there.
My brother gave me one of the scares of my life yesterday! Is it not enough that a friend drowns, but then on the very day of his funeral, my brother tries to drown himself (and possibly me?)?? We were at Eska lake, and Amy, Aaron and Isaac had just gone out in the canoe, I was offshore floating around (in a lifejacket), well then Andy decided to swim out to me. (Why won’t he ever wear a lifejacket?) Btw, he’s 15, but you wouldn’t know it. Anyhow, by the time he got to me he was tired (who wouldn’t be?). He grabbed for me making me go down a bit (though I believe he was only kidding with me), but this is the second time someone had tried to “climb atop of me”! We finally got headed back for shore, him kicking and paddling with one arm, while holding onto my arm with the another, as I was kicking, I was pleading with God to give us strength to get back. It really had me scared. Well, he finally touched ground and went back to the car. I had a paddle, and once he was fine, turned around put my head against my hands on the top of the paddle and just about had a nervous breakdown. I was quietly crying, and just thanking God and all. I now have a small picture and feeling of what the panic must have been like for Mer and Norman! It’s indescribable. Amy remarked to me today, “Andy said you two almost drowned in the lake yesterday.” (I think she was asking if it were really true) That told me that Andy actually realized our situation, and hopefully it drove something home to him! (he’s most careless at times)
Well, that’s it for now. Writing about that incident and thinking of Mer has me on the verge of tears. G’day!
Yesterday as normal we went to the B.'s where our church meets. Although Mr. B. and the two oldest B. boys (at home) were gone to K. Island salmon fishing, and couldn't get a flight back till last evening. And the daughter-in-law was up visiting with her two young daughters from K. Island. Once in the afternoon, my Dad remarked how he was thinking that Jennifer was Sarah's(5) Aunt, then realized they were sister-in-laws, to which Jennifer agreed it was strange at times. She went further to say that our family might turn out like that. I was looking at my Dad when she said that, then I looked at her, and she was giving me this look, sort of like, "Yep, you, better get with the program" or something, t'was odd. Then Rachel(12) (my very good friend) told me that I had gotten brought up during the week, and that Jennifer had enquired as to how old I was, and when I was getting married. Shouldn't she be getting married? *shakes head* Okkkk! What's her hurry? Just because she's in her early 20's and has a daughter almost 5??
Then on the way home that evening, a car kept beeping it's horn behind us. Then they passed us and all waved! It was some old friends of ours (they had a new car) they waved us over, and talked us to come over to their place for ice cream. Which we did, and had a lovely time. I was going to go more into depth, but just read some very shocking, sad news and don't feel like writing anymore. Janene, if you read this, I simply cannot imagine what you are going through. I'm praying, really praying!
If y'all aren't adverse to praying for animals, I'd really appreciate it if you'd offer up one for my rabbit, Spot. The best I can figure out is that she somehow twisted and/or sprained one of her hind legs, whilest running about her pen in fear of a bear. (beware bear! If thou comest back, thou shall forfeit thy life!) She lies about, doesn't seem to give her too much pain, but she can't put any weight on it. I've given her water with a spoon. Am sure t'will heal fine, but as a 'mother' I naturally worry. Thanks alot.
I was fairly dancing this morning when I found Duchess did actually have bunnies last night!:-D Yippee! Spot was due last Wed. so obviously she isn't pregnant!:( Duchess only had 4 bunnies this time, but I'm so extremely happy to have any a'tall! Two are going to be gray and two black (and white of course). They really have some good strong dutch markings!
And I took two parts of the entry tests in a GED book I borrowed from the library. The first one, I got 3 out of 25 questions wrong. I can't believe I got the one wrong. I thought it would sound better, the Smithville Children's hospital. And didn't pay attention that the h in Hospital wasn't capitialize. Argh! I shouldn't think.;) Anyhow the other was in essay which I did under the time required. I'm planning on taking the next test as soon as I post this.
Today's just been an especially nice day. The weather is gorgously sunny and all too! We serve a great, majestic awesome God!!
