The Scrambling Storm Shuffle

So, today we had a ginormous storm. It started out with a downpour as soon as I got home from work. I just walked in the door, so I was lucky.

The deck furniture, however, was not. The next thing we saw was our swing, A-frame and all, blowing off the deck inches away from my car. The chairs flew off the deck, and their covers fell off. We scrambled to secure everything on the ground and dragged the covers inside. The plants were hastily shoved under the bay window, and the front step’s plants were moved to the safety of the porch. We were soaked when we were done and took turns watching the table to make sure it didn’t fall over as the others changed into dry clothes.

The only casualty was the swing’s canopy. It got a tiny hole in it that my mom will try to fix soon.

It’s so nice out now, with cool air smelling like rain. I would sit out there, but it’s all wet. =P

Guen already loves my blanket :)

It's really green, not purple. Taken on my phone.

The Home Stretch

Well, it's 20 days until we move back into our dorms at West Liberty.

Today, my mom, sister, cousin, and I went to the campus to deal with some minor financial aid issues, and to see if we could preview my future room.

Surprisingly, my roommate and I got into the honors dorm, and we have never been in the hall before. It's pretty awesome. We have our own bathroom that we share with two other girls and walk-in closet that's our own. This made me even more excited to start school, as it's so much better than the community bathrooms of our previous year.

With less than a month until we go back to college, it's going to be more difficult to get together with friends. But I'm going to try. =)


In an extremely good mood, so something will probably go wrong, haha.
