Okay, time for a real post. Umm, let’s see. Monday was chemistry class; we “tried” to make long lasting bubbles (not the flaming ones). After that I went to a surprise birthday party for a friend, we had pizza then we played basketball for a several hours.
I hadn’t touched a basketball (at least not with the intention of playing) in months. It was amazing; I still had the touch, I swooshed three threes in a row. My jumping needs some work though, I could only dunk on a nine or nine and a half ft. goal.
After that Mrs. M. took us home and visited with my mom for a little while. While they were talking I thought it was a good time to show my friends our swing. While we were walking over there my neighbor’s pit bull came over and started picking on the littlest friend. (poor kid is scared of dogs anyways). We ran Bull (that’s the pit bulls name) off and proceeded to the swing. Bull came back and we decided to just go back to the house after a few swings, we didn’t feel like messing with the dog.
After the Ms left I had to go lock up animals. I locked up the ducks and got over to the goats and realized that Bull was following me. I locked up the goats really fast (Bull doesn’t get along with the goats really well) and headed over to the chicken coop. While I was walking, Bull started nipping at my shoelaces, so I flicked him on the nose and said “no”. usually that does the trick and he’ll go home, but not this time. He just got mad and grabbed my shoe, squeezing my foot inside, and started pulling me around. Now I don’t know about you, but when a big huge monster dog bites my foot, I smack it on the nose. Well, this didn’t work, it just made him madder. So I made my way over to the gate at the garden so I could get inside the fence, kicked Bull in the head and disappeared in the tall grass. I snuck up to the house and that was all the fun that Bull could have with my foot that night.
A few days later Bull came over and was picking on Josiah, so I got onto him about it and he started barking, it was the meanest bark I had ever heard come from his mouth. So I looked at him and asked if that was supposed to scare me (if it was, he was doing a good job), then I started growling and ran towards him and he ran off with his tail between his legs. Bull doesn’t bother me anymore. Okay, enough of the dog.
Last night was our Christmas party at Riverwalk church (our apartment ministry), lots of kids and a few moms came. It was pretty fun. Dan and Andy played Christmas songs almost the whole time. Luke came to “help out”, I think he came more for Lana though. After it was over Luke and I cleaned up the leftover M and Ms.
I have all my Christmas shopping done, WHOOHOOO!! FIVE DAYS TILL CHRISTMAS!! Okay, I think that’s all.
Btw, I went to the orthodontist this morning and he said I get my braces off in mid Feb!!
