While I'm Driving You Crazy, Should I Stop At The Mall?

Well, this week has been kind of interesting.

We had the Hilds over for new years. They came early Monday and left after dinner on Tuesday, not near long enough for friends that you see twice a year. But while they were here we had time to do plenty of stuff.

After they had been at our house for a while, I realized that Uncle Scott hadn’t seen my drivers permit, so I showed it to him, and he said I needed to go show it to my cousin Brittany (we’re not really related, but our parents have been friends since before we were born, so we might as well be related), ‘cause she didn’t have hers yet.
So I go show her and somehow my Aunt Jackie finds out and says that since I could drive, I could take her to the store (in her Pontiac grand prix:).
Well, it takes us a while to get ready and when we start to head out, we realize that there are six people going (one of which happened to be my “wonderful” future brother in law), her car only seats five.
So, instead of driving her sports car, I got to drive our minivan, *fun*.
Well, let’s just say that Luke has some issues as a passenger….
I *did* get to drive Aunt Jackie’s car on a trip to the store eventually. Let’s just say, Aunt Jackie, your car is pretty zippy.
Us older kids (T.J., Lana, Brittany, Brandon and I) went to A-Z to shop for... something; I really have no idea why we went. After that we had dinner and then they (the Hilds) left.

Later that night some of us went to NBC When we came back, I got some of the worst news possible at the time.
T.J. IS MOVING OUT :( I knew it was gonna happen eventually, just didn’t think it was gonna be this soon. So on top of Lana getting married and leaving, T.J. is moving out. He went over to look at a place last night and went back this morning to pay his first months rent. I think he’s moving in today and tomorrow. Tonight will probably be his last night in our house. :(

I realized the other day, that in a few months, I will be the oldest of the kids at home.
It’s gonna be pretty tough with all the changes about to take place. But at least I have Jesus to lean on when it gets tough. That’s more than some people have.

This is my last post in the year 2007.
I hope you enjoyed it:)
