| I have some time!! |

I had the day off today, and what did I do?
Well, I went to bed at 2:30am, so I set my alarm on my phone to go off at 1pm. It did. i shut it off and went back to sleep. I had a weird dream, which I forget what it was about now, but I was woken up at 3:45 by my mother. She wanted to know if I had cleaned all the dishes out of the kitchen yet.
So, I lied and told her that I did do them, and went downstairs and did them. Then I went back upstairs to have some planned "Alone Time" and she called me again. She asked me to put dinner on. I told her I would, and then had a bit of time for me, and then she called like 3 more times, so I gave up.
I did get to tidy my room up a bit. I finished un-packing from our trip to Homosassa Springs. I just had a few DVDs and my CD player to unpack.
So, Homosassa: We left late, like we knew we would, and got there, unpacked my car and my mom's van, and then we went fishing off the dock. The next day, my Uncle Rick, Uncle Patrick and his wife, and their 2 kids arrived late at night. Earlier my mom and dad's friends arrived. We pretty much just chilled out.
The next day, we went to the wildlife park and saw the manatees. It was cool. We saw the big Hippo who lived there and all the neat animals.
On Monday, we rented 2 pontoon boats and went out to the gulf of Mexico. we swam in the water, which was like bath water, and we say a small pod of wild dolphins. It was cool! I spotted them first! Then we ate lunch on the boats and then went back and passed where we were staying and went to the springs.
Me, being so smart, didn't put on any sunblock, so I got a bit red. The water at the springs is icy cold, and it felt good. We had the boats tied together and Jack had been running between them and us adults were scared he was going to fall between them and get hurt, so we told him to stop. He didn't listen, so I pushed him in. He climbed back out and caught me off guard and pushed me in.
I wouldn't have minded so much, but I had my contacts in and didn't think to bring a spare pair. So I got irritated, but calmed down after my brother threw him back in the water. The water is so cool! It's awesome!!
So, we went back home and chilled. Later that night we tried to go to the beach, but we went to a park with a board walk instead of the actual beach. It was funny. By the time we got to the beach, it was past 8:30 and it was closed. We had fun though.
The rest of the week, it rained. Everyone went to Wikiwatchee Water Park on Tuesday, but I was sunburned and didn't feel like getting a burn on a burn, so I told my mom that I wanted to stay home. She asked if I'd go do laundry, and I agreed. So, I stayed home and read my book, The Laughing Corpse by Laura Hamilton. (It's the 2nd book in the Anita Blake series. REALLY good book!!) Then I went to the laundry mat.
It turned out that a storm rolled in, so my family didn't have that much fun at Wikiwatchee anyways. The kids were disappointed.
It rained on Thursday too, so we didn't get to go to the beach like we wanted. We kinda hung out and fished and read and did inside stuff, like play Uno.
We left on Friday. We stopped at Emily's for breakfast. We were all tired and wanting to be home. I drove in my mom's car with her and the girls. Dad drove my car with my brothers and Jack. Well, on the way home, Coco puked in the back seat. My mom used Lysol spray to clean it all up, and it stunk so bad with the mix of throw up smell that I couldn't take it.
At the next rest-stop, me and Joey switched. Jack was a pain the way home, and we were all fed up with the kids. They're not our kids, so they don't act like we'd like them too... you know...
I got home, and Logan was already at my house. I helped take stuff out of the car and then got over to the playhouse and preformed. lol It was pretty crazy.
So THAT was Homosassa!! :D
In other news, yesterday was the last day of the play. It was sad, but not as sad as Jekyll and Hyde was. I got really close to a bunch of people though. I will miss them next weekend really badly. I had fun being a cop! :) I also had fun being with my friends.
And now... PICTURES!! :D
I made a slide show, because there are a bunch of pictures... Click me!! :D It takes a little bit for the pics to load, but yeah.. Playing with technology! :D
And this slide show is from the play. Click me too!! :D This one takes time too...
I'm off to go to get ready to go out now. Take care everyone! xoxo |
