Well, let's see. Mom and Dad went to Kalispell on Tuesday to spend their leftover Christmas and tax return money, and spend some time together. Lavinia and I stayed at G-ma's house for the day, until I had to work at 5. Pretty good day. Rick, my new boss, showed me how to close the place next time it was just me and another person working till 8. Which is a good thing, I suppose. ^_^ He's been having me learn to do more things since he's taken over.
Our new employee (Sarah's replacement) is starting next month. So… next week. Her name is Jessie. She's from Wyoming. Haven't met her yet. And Maureen who usually runs the front desk has been in New York for the past month for some sort of treatment is back now, so here's to not being short-handed anymore!
Mom and Dad got a new computer - now Mom won't be yelling at the slowness of the old one. v_v Mwahaha. >=) – a tablet (which is pretty stinking epic, I must say), a new digital camera for mom, and a wireless printer. (And as I recall, they didn't get me a wireless printer for my laptop in freshman year, because it was "too expensive".* V_v) Funny how priorities work. xD
Dad says I can take the tablet on the ride to Arizona in May, too. X)
Dad and I are going on a mission trip to Arizona in May btw, for those of you that didn't know… << There's a total of 7 going, I believe. To a Native American reservation called Round Cedar. I'm like the only one in our group who's under the age of 40… <_< But it should still be fun, going with my Dad, helping build stuff, being down where it's warm… So, starting to look forward to it anyway. ^_^ It's only like $350 for the two of us! O_o With a price like that, I guess you really can't beat it…. But I have several projects to get done before then. <_< It's only a month and 1.5 weeks away! @_@ So I've got to work ahead in 2 weeks of school, and I'd like to finish these two books I'm reading**, and maybe make a bunch more bracelets for any kids I meet…. Oh and learn more on my ukulele too. To play some happy traveling songs on the way! xD Dad says I need to at least take my traveling guitar as well.*** I agree. V_V Two weeks away from it would give me severe withdrawals….
In other news, Vin's parents could really use some prayer… there's a lot of… well, drama going on right now… And if things keep going like this for a whole lot longer, I don't know if they'll get her back. Not if her dad continues to go the way he is. He needs to rise up as the protector and leader of the family.
On the second week of phase 3 now… Not much challenge to it. =P Just eating breakfast every day and doing a full-body workout twice a week. I'm going to try to incorporate the other challenges into life from here on out…. 6 glasses of water and 5 servings of fruits and veggies a day, 150 minutes of cardio a week, 2 full-body workouts…. We shall see, we shall see. I need to run again…. G-ma doesn't have her treadmill anymore and I haven't been to the gym, and Landon and I haven't gone running lately…. I should call him tomorrow, possibly. I don't work till afternoon…
<_< >_> Right. Back to school……
**Three books, technically. I'm listening to the last Eragon book on audio right now.
*** I currently own 3 acoustic guitars (if you don't include the $12 one I started my lessons on). The Yamaha is my "traveling guitar" because I don't care so much what happens to it. These are very important issues, ya know… >_>

I'll pray for your friend. Is her full name Lavina?
Oh yeah it's on May 2nd, right?
Ha, well I only know about 2 songs all the way through on it right now. xD But maybe I'll post a vid of it sometime.
Lavinia is my baby foster sister. ;D I call her Vin for short. But yeah thanks, prayer's definitely appreciated right now.
Yep! I'm so excited! :D
Awesome!! I just love listening to it. :)
Oh darn... xD *facepalm* I forgot her name! haha! But yes, I shall still pray for her. :)
Sounds cool! ^_^ What do you do on such a mission trip?
=/ *will be praying for Vin and her parents* I got your letter, btw. ;D I'm about 4 pages into my reply.
On this one I believe we'll be building... stuff.. <_< And visiting the Grand Canyon and other cool places along the way, and I think something about doing worship at the church or something... I'm not entirely sure all it entails. But I'm getting pretty excited for it now. ^_^ I wasn't at first.
Awesome sauce ;D Please reply speedily, dear friend. v_v x)
