| Well this past week has been an interesting one. Sunday before last I started training at my new job( a coffee shop called "Moxie Java") right after performing with my siblings at a church. So I was there(at work) from about 2:00 pm to 11:30 pm. Monday we usually sing at a couple nersing homes with friends, but that was canceled cause they were out of town...so that was pretty unusual. Then on tuesday I trained a bit in the morning with my sister which, mornings are the buisiest time. After I got home we went to boise, which is about 45 minutes away, to go shopping and pick my friend, Sarah, up at the airport. So we left at around 1:30 and shopped untill 6:00 or so, then we picked Sarah up and headed home. It was kinda awkward at first, seeing Sarah again, cause we hadn't seen eachother for almost a year and that was only for one day and before that it had been almost 4 years. But after we got home and stuff it was cool.
The first night we slept outside on the trampoline, which was colder than we had thought it would be but it was still fun. While she was here we rode our bikes to town a few times and sat at the park. Wednsday we mostly just hung around home and talked (guess we had a lot to talk about.) Then on Thursday I trained with Rebecca from 5:00 am to 12:00 pm and Sarah came too. Mornings are the busiest at coffee shops so I learned quite a bit and got some good practise.
Friday we hung around home and us girls had a "dress up party" where we all dressed victorian. Then Saturday was Anna's baby shower at Moxie Java (she's the manager there) so we went to that and I took over the counter for mary so I got a bit of practise working over there which was good cause I had only worked in Fruitland before(there's two stores that we all rotate between) and I was supposed to work that night at Ontario, which is where the shower was, so it was kinda fun and I learned some stuff.
That night Rebecca had to bake at Ontario so she took me to work. It was actually supposed to be my first night working "alone" but She was there so if I needed help that was nice. Ontario is a bit harder to clean than Fruitland (the stores) cause its bigger but it wasn't to bad. We got out of there about 45 minutes after we closed but I guess that's not bad for my first try.
After we got home a little after 12:00, we noticed Isaac wasn't home yet, so we waited for him to get home and then gave him a hard time for staying out so late (he was at his g/f's house and then we all sat around and talked for a while...it was kinda bad cause we were so tired we couldn't hardly go to bed! Or...at least that's how I was :P (goin on 7 hours of sleep and only 6 and 5 the nights before) and so finally we all headed for bed.
In the morning we all got up pretty early and went to church. It was cool cause they had some missionaries from South Africa there.
After church we sat around for a while trying to think of something to do. We had several idea's but the one we finally decided on was canoeing. SO that's what we did! It was so much fun! I want to do it again.
On monday we went to nersing homes and my friend had the idea to dress up old fashion for the old people...so we did! It was kinda funny but they liked it anyways.
So then on tuesday me and Martha went to take Sarah to the airport and said goodbye. Then we went shopping a bit and came home.
On Wednsday I just did a bunch of stuff around the house (cleaning etc.) oh, I cut my finger and fainted...that was kinda scary but I'm fine now. I didn't really think I would faint but I did.
Yesterday we had a really hard wind that came on really sudden. We didn't have much damage here but I guess over where my sister lives got it pretty bad. They said it was almost like a tornado.
So now...Today. I'm sitting here typing and have answered several phone calls and I've been up since 7:00. So I guess that pretty much wraps it up.
