so i've got today off so i'm going to finally blog.
so i was going back and forth with my mom to PA and NC for several weeks. mom can't make up her mind about where she wants to live and work. she likes both places. she's worried that she's messin me up but i'm okay either way. i'm very outgoin and i can survive most things so i told her to make the decision for herself cuz it's her job and she's going to have to be working it every day.
so i've been back in NC now for 2 wks an i've been nonstop busy with babysitting and mowing yards and cleaning Ms Eileen's attic out. that is like the biggest job ever. she's got a LOT of crap up there. i've been workin for 7 hrs nearly every day for 2 wks and im only about 1/2 done with it. i love the nostalgia feeling of the attic. i'm happy to report that it's not as hot up there as i thaught it'd be. if we leave the drop down door open the ac comes up and theres a fan up there so it's cooler. she's got sum cool photos up there tho. they r like real sepia colored cuz thats the way they were originally u know? like not computer generated sepia or by turning the button on ur camera. they were original black and whites. the clothing is that classic antique look. those are the main boxes i brought down already so she could go thru em while i work. old people amaze me. she can't remember what she had for breakfast but she can remember a pic of her when she was 6 and tell a story about it. i'd probably actually be done by now if we didn't stop every hour to add an hour of talking. i didn't really expect to like this lady so much. but missin my own grandparents back in PA i luv her company and i really am beginning to luv her.
so yesterday i brought down boxes and boxes of old clothing. early 1900's clothing. she said some of it was her mother's. she had one tie from her dad but it was kinda biodegrading or something cuz it was like really stringy and faded and falling apart. i guess her brother had her dad's stuff. for the most part the stuff is junk but i like the special finds. its well worth it just for those special pieces of her history that brings a hugemongous smile to her face. i actually found her doll up there yesterday but i left it up there because i can't wait to hear the stories about it. i'll bring it down tomorrow at the end of the day so i can have time for the stories. she has a few other toys up there.
so i saw one mouse up there yesterday. i couldn't catch it but if i do i'll just take him outside. he looked a bit scared of me. i <3 animals and would never hurt the poor little thing. maybe i'll make a humane trap for it so that it doesn't die in the attic or worse yet go downstairs to where Ms Eileen's cat is.
so i'm gonna to have to have some help when i get to the big things of furniture to bring down. she's got a vanity stand that's like a dresser// 2 or 3 dressers// some lamps// a baby crib// and some stands that might be bookcases.
so i haven't had much time for outside play or exercise. of course carrying boxes and goin up an down stairs for 7 hrs a day is quite a workout. that's y i haven't blogged in so long. i've been too very tired. i haven't even had time to do any pk practicing. i was quite enjoyin it in PA and found a great playground that has precision jumps and cat leaps and some simple vaults that i practiced on lots when i was there but i haven't had much time to do anything now that i've been back in NC. but i have been stopping every now and then in the attic to attempt some pullups on the wood rafter thingys. i can now do like 3 full pullups in a row that are really good. i can do several really sloppy ones but like the full on pullups only 3. i was talking to the other girl on ncpk //her name is yellow on those boards// and she was tellin me how being a girl can suck big time as a pk person //traceuse. she says boobs get in the way and that the upper body strength is hard so pulling urself up from a catleap is really hard. and yes my boobs get in the way quite a lots when i'm tryin to practice some pk. and i'm working really hard on my upper body strength. i wanna be abel to do muscles ups like the traceur blane that i found on utoob. he's awesomely cool and u should check out his utoob videos. :P he just props himself up like it's nothing. of course he prob weighs like nothing cuz he's so skinny and he definitely doesn't have boobs in his way.
so i think i'm going to go swimming today since Ms. Eileen is visitin someone else today. gonna go get the bikini and ride my bike to my friend's house to swim.
so did u notice i've started every paragraph with so? :P ive had lots of complaints about my lack of punctuation usage. one girl i met on utoob actually suggested i at the very least start using an apostrophe. so if u'll notice in this blog i did just that. i like my style but if people can't read it and understand it then it's pointless right?
