Home Is Behind- The World Ahead

the rest of the family flew into Nashville this morning, so mom left early to pick them up at the airport while the rest of us finished packing up and making sandwiches.

We left around the usual time; 9:30ish. The trees were quite lovely along the highway, but the drive was still long. After lunch I settled down, as well as I could in a full car, and took a nap for a few hours while the others read and visited. We lasted until the last two hours before breaking out the dvd players and watching parts of Sense and Sensibility.

After unloading the car, in honor of our arrival in Virginia, we went to a Mexican restaurant for dinner.

Now us kids are settled down in the girls' hotel room (unfortunately, I don't think the hotel would allow eight people to sleep in a hotel room meant for four) watching Prince Caspian while Lydia and I catch up on blog posts and other computer related activities.

Bang goes that theory. -_- Night before last, the heater ran all night, and I had the brilliant idea to accidentally sleep a large portion of the night with my mouth open. Fast-forward to 7:30 yesterday morning. I woke up with a sore throat. Determined to not let it get me down, I continued to function like normal, despite the fact that all I really wanted to do was ignore my alarm clock and pull the blankets back over my head. I marched downstairs and promptly brewed myself a mug-full of tea. Most the the day, I was able to act like nothing was out of the ordinary- I was even able to finish my science for the rest of the year! (*throws confetti*) After dinner though, I started getting really really tired. When Mom read us a story in the living room, I almost fell asleep. After she finished, I went back up to my room. If it hadn't been only 8ish I would have gone to sleep immediately, but it was, so instead, I crawled into bed with a book. I little while later, little si

Being with my family, also spending some quality alone time with a good boo

Warning: this is going to be an incredibly long post, so you may want to come back to it later. *cracks knuckles* Alright, let's do this! Tags: On January 21st,  Mary  tagged me for the Blogging About Blogs tag. The Rules: 1. Thank the person who tagged you. (thanks dearie!) 2. Answer the questions. 3. Tag some blogging friends. The Questions: 1) Blog that makes me laugh: Cait  at  Paper Fury  has a hilarious blog.
