FREE stuff for YOU!!

Since I returned from the wonderful world of Lake Ellen last Tuesday (the 16th I think it was..), I have yet to spend a full day at home.  While this is good in the sense that I'm keeping busy, it would be nice to have a day where I don't have to be going somewhere or coming home from somewhere.  Unless its camp, I'll go to camp any day.  So long as I never have to come back, that is.  Well, maybe to visit.  But anyways, its been busy.  I've spent the last few days at Trout Lake, near Minocqua WI, camping with family and friends.  Its always fun- georgeous sunsets, campfires, walks to the beach to stargaze, and of course lots of laughs and games and great food.

Now that I'm home, I'm gonna have to figure out an attack plan on how to see all the people I haven't seen since May or June.  At least I can accomplish a few at church tomorrow.  I haven't been to church in over a month, which I know, its absurd.  And I haven't been to MY church since May!  Or Youth Group, which has changed names apparently?  Still don't know what I'm going to do about that- not the name change part, the going to youth group part.  They are having it twice a week, so not only will I have to pick a day, I'll have to make it fit into my schedule and probably have to pay for gas (bleh!).  Gas is gross.  Oh well.

Oh hey, did I mention we have kittens? Four of them, super cute.  Two tabby, one tabby with white feet, and one really cool tabby and black and white one.  Hope they all make it.  They are super popular, so if you order one now, I'll give you a deal and you can have it twice as free than if you order when they are ready to go!  CRAZY DEAL RIGHT!?!?!?!  This offer won't last long, so be the first in your home to get one!  They're cute!  They're tiny!  They're what every home needs!

Dreadfully Busy

WOW.  There are a couple of reasons for that WOW.  First, its been nearly a week since my last post- OOPS!! Sorry people.  Furthermore, I basically did nothing but play Zelda today.  I am really really REALLY liking Twilight Princess.  It is Epic.  Finally, the biggest of the WOWs.

THERES ONLY TWO WEEKS TIL CAMP!!!! AHHHH!!!!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <---that pretty much sums it up, but I have more to say.  I am super excited, but it doesn't quite seem real.  I know two weeks isn't long, but I haven't even thought about packing (okay, I did a bit, but not really) and it seems like its months away still.  Its almost as if I know its coming but don't believe it and don't want to get my hopes up.  Only I DO believe in fairies...I mean that camp is coming.  Part of it could be that a lot is happening from now til then.  I have a youthgroup event on Wednesday, will hopefully be staying at Riverside on Friday night and helping work there on Saturday.  TJ graduates on Sunday, but hopefully I will NOT have to endure that.  Becca's graduation party is on Memorial Day (which is also Em and James's anniversary congrats woot woot etc).  Next Tuesday I'm going to a cookout bonfire thing.  Next Wednesday I have a YEAH! Board of Directors meeting.  Next Thursday I have a YEAH! event.  Next Saturday is TJ's graduation party/leaving for basic party.  Then I leave the day after that.  Yeah, I'd say I'm pretty busy.  So..in the next 13 days...I have 4 maybe 3 days I will not be doing anything.  Its okay though, I don't mind it.

With all that will be going on, good luck with getting a post out of me.  I will try, I really will.  But I'm not promising anything.  And in case this is my last before camp, I'm warning you that their internet isn't that best and I won't have much time, so you'll be lucky to get one blogpost a week.

Ahh I still can't believe theres only two weeks left.  Less than actually! Thirteen days.  The only downside is that it means only thirteen days to see Jack.  I am going to miss him.  A lot.  Sometimes, when I haven't been home all day, I start to miss him.  And thats after only eight hours.  I have to go approximately 1848 hours without seeing him.  Not sure I'll survive.  I will have Rusty though.  And Tank.  And Odie.  And all the people at camp of course.

{This is me failing at wrapping up the post with a good ending}

Who Let the Dogs Out?

So...I guess I should mention that I got a dog.  Before, I had two inside cats (old crabby Nala and gorgeous adorable Jack) and two outside cats (Lucy aka Ugly Betty even tho she is cute, and Kitty Kitty).  Dwight ran away :( and I think Kitty Kitty might have too, because I haven't seen her either.  Lucy also has three kittens.  Anyways, back to the dog.  His name is Koda, he's a Husky, kind of a redish brownish color.  I'll admit he's pretty cute, but then again Huskies are the only dogs I've ever liked.  He doesn't get along perfectly with the cats.  He chases Jack, because Jack runs.  He bugs Nala, but she hits him back and he leaves her alone.  And then theres Lucy.

I LOVE LUCY.  pun intended.  Not sure if thats exactly a pun, but I'm gonna call it that.  I used to be indifferent to her, but now I must say I appreciate her.  Whenever Koda decides he wants to go say hi to her, which is rare, she chases him and attacks him.  Its quite humourous to see a cat chasing a dog across the yard.  I understand she is protecting her kittens, and even if I feel a little bad for Koda, the hilarity outways all that.

Another plus of having Koda is that Jack is so terrified of him, that he practically lives in my room (Jack, not Koda.  Koda isn't allowed in my room, its Jack's safe place now).  And since I love Jack so much, I'm perfectly okay with it.  Although I did kick him out at 5:30 this morning because he was being really annoying and playing in the litterbox we gave him.  I don't think he's ever even used it, he just likes playing in it, like a little kid in a sandbox.  Or anyone in a sandbox, really.  I still love making sand castles.

Koda is slightly trained.  He is young still, so its not that big of a deal.  He just barks for half an hour if you put him in the kennel, and likes to chew on stuff like underwear.  He doesn't come very well, but he knows how to sit and we are teaching him to lay down.  We also found a cheap dog treat: Animal Crackers.  And its nice because you can feed them to the dog or eat them yourself.  It may be slightly cannibalistic on his part, but thats only if there is a dog in the animal crackers, and I don't think there is.

So yeah, just a little about our new dog.  Oh, and he's not really ours.  He's Emily and James' dog, but he lives in our house because they live in our house.  So I call him ours.
