I'm Home!

So... I'm home. I got here last Sunday, spent the day at Paul's house, and then went "home" to my house for the summer. We had a blast doing oh, I don't remember anymore what we did that night. Monday I unpacked, did some laundry, slept, and went to FHE at Tyler's house. (I was recruited to go to FHE there all summer with the girls that used to come to our house for FHE).

Tuesday I started working. I'm not delivery driving yet, that will start in a few weeks after Darryl goes away for the summer. I've been doing inventory projects, helped with statement day, and doing all sorts of tasks that used to be mine. I guess when they found their 3rd person to replace me in the office, they found someone who doesn't have as flexible hours. She comes in early in the morning, and works until like 8 or so when she has to go up to 'the school' (i'm not sure what school that means, but I guess she's a teacher or something????). So I've been helping her out with her job by emptying her basket in the afternoons so she has less work to do in the limited amount of time she has in the office each morning. It's fun to see what things I remember from last summer.

I hung out at Paul's house the other day too, the kids and I talked about our Webkinz (which I am finding is a great topic with all sorts of little kids here). I sat down at Stake Conference today, and the kid next to me had a webkinz with her, so we talked about the 11 other webkinz she has, and how big her webkinz house is, and what her favorite game is, and favorite job... it was kind of silly i guess, but hey, we were an hour early to stake conference, we had time to talk.

I already have gone babysitting once since getting home, and I was so excited about it! I hope there is more babysitting to be done this summer. I could use something to do on the weekends since not all my friends are home from school yet, and some aren't coming home at all!

Anywho... I'm home, I'm safe, and I'm loving it here! I'm glad school is done for a little while, but I think pretty soon I'll be ready to go back to Provo and be around all sorts of people. I've found myself talking to some of my roommates on a very regular basis. It's kind of funny. I didn't think I would miss them all this much.

Sounds like fun to me. I had been wondering how your little Webkinz guy was doing? Did you add onto his house or was it just too busy once school was going full force. I am drowning in the Math 110 class. It's been too long since I thought about mixed numbers and letters, and so my mind does not go a million miles an hour. And because it's Spring Term, I need it to go two million miles an hour. Pray for me! Mom

P.S. Please delete one of these--I don't know how I multiplied it in one fell swoop! Mom

I've never heard of Webkinz. I am completely out of the loop! Must educate myself on this. Is is a computer program? That's the sense I'm getting as I read along this blog entry.
So glad you're safely there, and enjoying your summer. You are so kind and good to help your co-worker out like that! That kind of charity is a rare thing these days, and you are definately a shiny gold star my dear!
FHE at Tylers house sounds fun. Please tell all that I say 'hello'!
Looking forward to reading all the summer blog entries about the fun you're having!

So your little puppy lives in a mansion, huh? I'm sorry to say I cannot remember his (her?) name. But besides the bedroom, living room/kitchen and deck with swimming and trampoline, you now have so many more activities for your virtual pet. Is there a link I could follow to see, or do I have to be enrolled somehow. What fun. You'd better describe for Joanne. Love, Mom
