Vacation...ahhhh.

I am posting from my grandma and grandpa (Meme and Pops) 's house. That didn't make sense, technically, but yall know what I mean.

We have all kinds of fun things planned. We just finished a marvelous dinner of meatloaf, mashed potatoes, carrots, bread with Meme's strawberry Jam, and fruit salad. Topped off with chocolate candies.

We're planning on watching I Love Lucy and the Andy Griffith show tonight, and I think also going to "Buds" for milkshakes. Pops says they have **** milkshakes.

Tomorrow we're going to the Air force museum, wednesday we're going horseback riding, thursday we're going bowling, and friday I think we might go swimming. Then Saturday we're heading home to embark once again on the madness of life. LOL. VBS and babysitting. I hope I won't be too tired from babysitting to do a good job helping with crafts.

Today we got out the Mule. Next time we do pictures I'll put up a pic of the Mule. I think doryack might have one. It's basically a golfcart with a bed for carrying sticks, etc. Or me. We each got to drive it around with everybody and once all by ourselves. (There is a chipmunk that sits impertinently on the head of a large concrete goose right outside the kitchen window. During our ride we nicknamed him the Chipper Monkey.) Before dinner Pops took us for a drive in the woods and we saw the ugliest spider we've ever seen. It was white, but it was built like the hairy black ones. He was building a web on the Mule. Hannah and I were too chicken to brush him off, and Abby was too far away (which I think is the reason she was willing to brush him off--He wasn't going to fall on top of her!)

On the way here we listened to a dramatization of Anne of Green Gables. It didn't have anything but dialouge. She's so zany! "even though what I said was true too, I shouldn't have said it."

I looked back at the post I did when Grandma Theresa came and I said I might go back to bed because I couldn't see myself getting through the rest of the day in such an advanced state of stupor. Just watch me. I've been up till 11 for about three nights in a row. It seems like a lot longer. In fact, I'm in such an advanced state of stupor that after dinner I tried to drain the rest of my water from my mug and spilled it all down my front. Missed my mouth entirely. It's all dry now. *SHAKE HEAD*. Katie, Katie. I should be able to go to bed at a very decent hour here, though. I need to catch back up before I start getting up at 7 or 7:30 to babysit. I told Hannah after our mule drive "Ask me how I'm doing." "How are you doing?" "Besides suffering from arachnaphobia and severe sleep deprivation: smashing, just smashing!"
