Summer's Gone

Abigail has graciously tagged yours truly with


The esteemed rules:

1. Thank the blogger who tagged you, and give a link to their blog. Thanks Abigail!
2. Answer the questions.
3. Tag as many people as you want!

The questions:

1. How was your summer?

It was amazing!

2. What was a highlight for you?

Spending time with family.

3. What was the best thing you did?

Actually, the best is yet to come.

Some of us leave for Maui next week, and the rest of us (Dad, Christian, and I) will fly up (or, I should say, across) on the 16th! We arrive home on October 9th!

4. What was the worst thing about the summer?

It was so very hot. Wait, that's normal.

5. What was one of the craziest things you did this summer?

Hmmm...
Had to ask somebody what I did. 
The results are:

"Well, you don't really do a lot of crazy stuff." "You screamed when you came upstairs." (Ava)
 "I have no idea." (Lydia)
"You caught a fish in Montana, and then dropped it before you got a picture." "You got your hook caught on a rock so your heroic brother had to wade out and get it." "You screamed." (Christian)

6. What books were you reading?

*Thinks* Good gravy! I don't think I can remember all of them, but anyways: 

Gulliver's Travels, The Brainy Bunch, Veiled Rose, Fairest, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, A Wrinkle in Time, The Shunning, The Confession, A Tale of Two Cities, and parts of The Silmarillion, The Reckoning, and How Should We Then Live.

I should have read more...

7. Are you going to school, or staying at home?

I'm doing the bulk of my school at home, but Speech and Debate is with a homeschool group one day a week.

8. Are you excited about school?

Yes! 

Surprise, Chloe actually missed seeing some people every week.

9. What was a highlight of last year's school year?

Besides the learning bit, probably growing closer to my classmates from the year before last, and making friends with the new arrivals.

10. Are you looking forward to fall weather, and winter?

Absolutely! I love cold weather! I really miss wearing jeans and hoodies. 

Also, when the weather decides to get cooler, I can resume riding with my neighbor!

Ohh! And Christmas too!

The Tag-ees, should they choose to accept:

And,

If you don't want to do the tag, that's completely fine. 

If you really really really want to do the tag, but were not tagged, I'll allow you to commandeer it. 

If you want to do the tag, but do not have a blog to do it on, I'd love to read your answers in the comments, or, better yet, you could make a blog and send me the link so I could read your answers!

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

To be eligible, they need to have 200 followers or less. - Answer 11 questions from the blogger who nominated you. - Tell your readers 11 random facts about yourself. - Give your nominees 11 questions to answer on their blog when they post their nomination. Questions first: 1. How did you pick your blog name? Well, for a while, it was The Shy Introvert , I think I chose it mainly because I was extra shy, and it had a nice ring to it. However, back in September, I  concluded that I should change my blog name , and asked for a few ideas, among them was Rustling Thoughts.  2. What makes you really happy? 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. I almost always end up making rather unladylike snorts whilst trying to keep the giggles at bay.  Also,  Treskie  at  Occasional Randomness ,   Jack  at  However improbable , and  Writefury  always manage to brighten my day when I'm feeling down. 2) Blog that makes me think: Just one? Are you kidding me? No way, I'm so bending this rule (I'll probably end up bending all of them) Kara  at  Coffee With Kara ,  Amanda  at  Scattered Journal Pages ,  Christine  at  Musings of an Elf ,  Scott  at  Encounter. Encourage. Engage. , and the list goes
