Don't you hate it when...

You have to be pulled out of school for a funeral of someone you don't know that your mother has to play the organ at. Me to.

The Sky is Falling

You may think it is, but I mean a large ball fell from the sky and knocked on the window and fell onto the trash cans. It was a Humming Bird! It was very hurt. Mom called the Humane Society. They came and picked it up. It was badly hurt. It had a broken wing. You could see one of its wing bones sticking out. I hope it will be okay.

Rancho Days

I had a field trip to Rancho Days. It was fun until 2 things: I learned that the youngest (like me) had to clean the chamber pots. Yech! And, I had to go into mud that was cold, had rocks in it, smelled like dog poo, and you had to go in bare foot so you could mix it up. But the fun things were: spinning and weaving, learning to do the Mexican hat dance, cooking our lunch, the games, the fiesta at the end, making candles, and taking a tour of the rancho. It was awesome!
