Science For Today

Today I woke up on a average day. I had some breakfast and straight to school work. I finished my science and scanned and sent it to my teacher. Today we are working with a microscope and we are going to study what the blood looks like under the microscope. We need the blood so we had to prick our selves with a pin. That's right pricking yourself with a pin.







I was so nervous doing it I was about to chicken out. Megan got a tack and was starting to attack me to get blood on the slides to see it. Before we did that we did a report of writing down all the information. When it came to stabbing I chickened out. Mom had to do it for me she told me it won't hurt.







Mom pinched my end of my finger and said that the nurses used to do it to her when she was pregnant. When she did me it hurt well I shouldn't say it hurt hurt but it felt like she pinched me. When I looked through it, it looked so different and you would think you were color blind if you did look at it. It was kinda like gold and little bugs were around and of course I saw my plasma.







Next it was Tyrell. His looked way different then mine his looked like it was darker. Next it was Emerson. He was scared of doing it and finally he did a little poke but no blood. Mom poked it again and a little bit of blood came out and then Mom gave up. I went over there and I squeezed it so hard that lots of blood came. Mom focused it for Emerson and he saw it and it looked so different that I don't think I can explain.







Megan wanted to do hers so she pricked her self and she couldn't get the light on and focus it. I got my rechargeable batteries and I replaced them and then it was working like really.I saw it was straight yellow. Us kids want Mom to prick her blood but she said no. I personally think she is tired of it because she had 5 kids and that means 5 pricks.







Well that's it for today....

Its Friday and I'm lovin it:)

Its Friday and I'm lovin it... This morning I woke up to a wonderful day. The 4 girls (the foster ones that I was talking about earlier) are going for good!!!!! That means silence and peacefulness. At 9:30 they went and all the chaos went with them. We had to much of it the whole week. We will have a nice quiet home once and for all. When they left we all started jumping jubilantly. In all truthfullness I felt sorry for them that they were not taught manners, and hope they are happy in the new home that they went to.





With schoolwork finished for the day I look forward to doing my blog posts.

Hanna is my friend in Sweden and we were talking on our hot mail accounts and it was so cool because when its 11 am in Sweeden its 7 pm here. Sometimes I think to my self, is there even anybody reading this????? HELLO????


I urgently had a feeling of cleaning. You know when you have a cleaning mood, well yep, that's what I had yesterday. I cleaned the kitchen very very clean. Megan made some pizza dough so that Mom can make pizza's. We needed onions for the pizza. Mom doesn't like cutting the onions nor my sister Megan. My Dad is the one who cuts onions in the house but he was busy. I told Mom I wanted to cut onions. It was my first time doing it the adult way. I usually use an onion cutter. It is a great way to chop onions, they are just the right size to put on pizza. I asked Mom if she can teach me how to cut it with a knife. Mom showed me and I did it very well if I may say so myself. Ladies you know what cutting onions means. It means crying like you are so emotional, just of doing the onions!!!! I found a solution to cut back on the tears, YAY!!!!! Cut the onions by an open window so that when you need to have air, you just go to the window instead of rubbing your eyes and making it hurt more.When you rub with your fingers the onion scent is on your hand. Multiple times I had to go the bathroom to get a cold cloth on my eyes.

Mission accomplished solider! You have achieved an award for cutting onions. I set the table. There was a problem with the place mats, they were so wrinkled up that I thought it would be nice if I ironed them. When I ironed it Mom said that it was very very nice.

Jesse came and he had a cold so we gave him some halls and it actually worked for him. Later, Deb had arrived and all we are waiting for is Darcy and the drinks for the night.
When Darcy arrived we were all so hungry so I grabbed the groceries out of his hand and got the Ginger Ale on the table for the juice to be put in. I got a pitcher of water and I put the cans of juice in but I was in a hurry because Dad was about to pray. After we prayed I got the juice already and then we just had juice and Ginger Ale. It was a good pizza.

Darcy asked where his cup was and I showed him and then he said ``your so quick``. I washed the stove because it was so messy so I guess you could say that I cleaned the kitchen thoroughly. Later Megan asked me to do her hair and I said yes right after I am done cleaning. I got the curling iron on and then I was getting the curling spray that your supposed to do before curling your hair because it protects it. And also after curling it you can spray this stuff with sparkles so it makes it look nice.
I have a routine with the hair do, because I spray, then protection stuff, then curl, and then read Megan's book that she has, and then I take it out and then spray it to make it sparkly. I was playing around with Megan's bangs and I pretended to cut them with my finger and she said that I could.I was surprised and excited so then I did. And just remember, this is my first time cutting hair I thought, its going to look horrible. I was so nervous and of course I was right it was horrible. So I did a touch up and then it looked a bit better. I curled it with those Velcro rollers and it looked cute, that is, if she was a little girl.

We watched a movie and then when I was done curling Megan's hair we went to bed. I curled up with mom and then her heat put me right to sleep.

Long Day

I am going to write about Thursday so that I am catching up...


Today I got up and dressed. I had some cereal and it was so good. I did schoolwork for awhile but then the kids distracted me so I discontinued. I was going to go to my french Vclass but I was having trouble so I didn't bother. I did more schoolwork and then I was done. I babysat 2 little girls so we watched a movie and played on the piano. We watched Home Alone 2 and 3 it seems to be my brothers fovortie movie. I didn't finish Home Alone 3 because the kids were disobeying so I went upstairs with Tyrell and Emerson to watch halfway through we wanted to take a break.


We went down stairs and then we were playing with the puppies. We had some supper. I babysat again this time I went on the piano and played songs for all the little girls to dance to. I was wearing a skirt and it was harder to dance because they were teaching me to line dance.. Mom came in and gave me a beautiful green cowboy hat that she was saving for me for a long time. I loved it. Tyrell got his cow boyhat on and we began to dance. We lined danced and got so tired. It was time to watch the end of Home Alone 3. I checked my Hotmail and then I went to bed. Mothers orders. She is very particular about getting to bed early.

Town Day



I am going to write about yesterday, today. I am going to write about today, tonight, for SURE!
I had a feeling I should write in my blog because one of my friends said that I was letting down her, and my followers.

On with today...

Today I was sleeping with Mom, because Dad was sleeping their room because he was sick. He snores so loud. So we were sleeping in the front room. We had to get up early because Darcy is going to take us town, and of course I told you that he works at the Butcher block. We get the car while he works. We got ready to go to town and then we were off.






Megan (my oldest sister and my only sister) is going to have a wonderful day without the children. Last Thursday we got an emergency placement because we are foster parents. 4 girls ages 7, 4, 3, 1 and it is so stressful. The 4 girls are going to go for a visit for the whole day. We dropped off Darcy and then we started our townday!!!




We went to the Dollar Store and I found the coolest thing ever! It was a flash light and it is a 3d flashlight that is a windup. On the side there is a lock and unlock and when you push the unlock, the other side pops up. You pump it, and then you charged it up. I had a sore throat so I also bought some Halls.



Right before we left the Dollar Store my piano teacher called and wanted to see if we could change our piano lessons. It works out well because we get more skating time in. Tyrell went to piano first, because I went last last time. Mom went into the school with Tyrell while I stayed in the car with Emerson.
Emerson thought I was so fun but I was just listening to the radio...LOL....I went and did piano and my teacher loved me playing for her and she said that she likes me as her student. I didn't get enough piano practice because those girls, I was telling you about in the beginning, are piano lovers so when I practice they pound on the piano. After my piano lesson we went skating. I was playing tag with some of my friends and fell. I stopped for a bit of a rest.We ate at the rink.
My Dad was in town so he picked up Darcy from work ( he was on his lunch break, Darcy that is) and then Dad wanted to gofor lunch. We enjoyed some poutine and a drink. We dropped off Darcy at work. We went to the library to get some books and then I got some movies for Emerson. At that time I was going to go to sewing. I am making my pink cameo pajama pants. I am doing it much faster than the first time I sewed. The first tiem i sewed I was going the slowest speed, but this time I was almost going full speed and I did some straight lines. Next week I am going to be
finished this project
Mom picked me up and I noticed that I couldn`t find my purse, and you know when you have a sick feeling in your stomach if you think you lost your purse, well I had that feeling, but I found it after ashort time. I had such a relief. We went to the mall. We went and sat down and Tyrell wanted to go on the rides that they have in the mall. I knew he was too bigf but we never do that so it was fun. Tyrell asked if we could go on the claw. The claw is the big claw that you pick up toy's with, but you have to have skill. Mom said yes (she is in a good mood) you see, she does not like waste so we don't do this sort of wasteful thing ever. I had a turn and almost got a hat, I grabbed it, and while it was going it dropped, and I got so mad.

I got so addicted but then I ran out of money because I wasted. Of all the times to leave your money at home, it had to be that, particularly time. We went and picked up Darcy and went home. What a long day. I was very tired.

Sick Day And Bed Day

Today I got up and I had some breakfast. I couldn`t get my mind around it because I am sick with the flu. Although I am better now then before last night. Last night I was going through all our clothes because we are going to move on the 28th. I gave a lot to the Salvation Army and to my little niece Grace. When I went to bed I felt a bit dizzy so I kinda thought that I was going to be sick because Megan and Jesse were sick and were at the house.


So I filled my water bottle and I went to bed. I went and put on my nighty that I made in sewing and that is nice for the winter because it is nice and warm. I am sleeping in my Mom's bed because Megan had to go into my room and Dad went to the valley to get our new farm ready. I took his spot, and boy am I ever enjoying sleeping with my mom. In the night I woke up with the flu and I told mom. So like every 2 hours I was waking up. Mom felt my forehead and I was with a fever. I was hot on the forehead.
Mom told me to get changed because I was dressed up to warm. You know when you have the flu and when you stand up you feel dizzy, well I had that. I couldn't focus on anything. I was trying to find some clothes but being with fever its not an easy thing to do. I took a aspirin for the suffering. I went to the bathroom because I thought I was going to throw up, but I was wrong. I told mom that I needed a container because I thought I would not make it.The most wonderful idea my mom had was to thhrow up in a ziplock bag (a big one of course) and when you want to get rid of it, why, you zip and throw!

So, lets get on with today shall we. I had some cereal but it took me a long time because when I was grabbing a bowl, I had a headache. After a few minutes I grabbed the cereal and then layed down and then a few minutes after I grabbed the milk and ate. I went into my room again sleeping until I had the feeling I had to throw up, and sure enough, I didn't have time to go to the bathroom, so I had to throw up in the zip lock bag. I threw that one away and then I went to bed and slept for 4 hours and then I felt ALOT better and then I ate a grilled cheese sandwich and then that's pretty much it for the flu..... Hope to go to town, lets see if I am well enough because I don't want to have a night like I did last night. Ta ta

Long time no write :)

Well well well long time no write. I was busy a couple days ago so lets see here... Lets start with Friday shall we... (PS. I will do a couple of posts here and tonight I will do more posts)

Today I got up and got dressed into warm clothes because it is cold. I had some beef bacon with some eggs on toast. I did lots of schoolwork because our little babies are coming. We are foster parents and we get little baby`s every other weekend for the other foster parents to get a nice break.





One is 7 months old and the other just turned 3. We had them since the month old baby was 2 months old! I always take care of them because I love them so dearly. My Mom doesn't have to worry about a thing, besides doing the night shift. When I was done schoolwork I had to kill time till 4:00 ( because the babies are coming) so I played my Sims on the Nintendo DS.


Finally it was 4:00 and then I was waiting for those babies to come. When they arrived I went outside and grabbed the diaper bag from their foster mom so that she can carry the baby. Mom and the other foster parent chatted for a bit while I got the diaper bag and got the baby food out and put it in the cabinet and the diapers in the bathroom. We like to use our clothes on the babies because we don't really want to lose any clothes of theirs.


I took care of both of them and when it came to supper I fed them and then I got them ready for bed. I tucked them both in bed and the 3 year old babie said night night sissy I love you. After I got them to bed I watched a movie and went to bed.


Saturday:


Today I got up and got dressed. Before I had breakfast I went into the baby room and got the baby ( the 7 month old) before it started waking up Mom and the otherbaby. I fed him the baby food and he is one messy eater I tell you, if I spill one smidge on the tray he grabs his hand and messes it up everywhere. And sometimes I even forget to put a bib on him but this time I did remember (thank goodness). I changed the babies bums because they were wet so after that I got them changed to their everyday clothes. Tyrell ( my youngest brother) went and babysat the 3 year old and Emerson the 5 year old soon to be 6.




The 7 month old baby was so tired he didn`t want to be put to bed so I made a bottle and fed him and rocked him. It took so long to put him to sleep it basically took me an hour. When I got him asleep I went on to my computer, and made a fire to have some quiet time for myself. When he woke up I changed his Diaper... I just pretty much babysat... I would like to have a job as a babysitter. Mom said I am taking the babysitting course through her and she is teaching me everything there is to know about babysitting. Talk to you guys later over and out.

ITS FRIDAY


I haven't writing for a long time so lets start with Wednesday... Today I got up at 6:00am and woke up my friend, Alise. She set the alarm for 6:00 and I turned it off. We played the Sims and I got all packed up. We had some breakfast and then we went to wake up Alise's mom. We played on the Sims for a bit and then we went to the car and got ready to go to the Bag Sale. We were a bit late because we were behind a guy who was going 60 and his lights weren't on because he was having trouble with his lights. We went to the Salvation army ( bag sale is at the salvation army and you get a bag for 5.00 and you fill it)


Mom was at the bag sale also so she dropped me off at Piano. The piano teacher made me play this part that you have to stretch your hands so much it hurts, I have trouble playing it because you have it fast and you also have to pound it. She wanted me to play it 10 times each day. We went on to another song that it is Beethoven that I was talking about last time. It is hard because you have to make it blend in and you also have to play it staccato. We went shopping for along time and I went to sewing. I am almost done my apron that I am making for my sister Megan.



We went home and we made some wraps and some pizza. I had some wraps and it is really good. Dad and Tyrell went to Edmonton to pick up some Golden Retriever puppies. They got home at around 6:30 and the puppies were so cute. I cleaned my room and went to bed.



Today I got up and I had some eggs on toast with some beef bacon that we get from the butcher block. I did lots of schoolwork and practiced my piano. I did my song that I had to play 10 times and my fingers really hurt afterwards. We are going to butcher our cow tonight so we got ready.We put some plastic on the floor and our table and we put our meat on the plastic on the table. The reason why we are going to butcher our cow tonight is because my brother Darcy is working and plus he went to college to be a meat cutter. And the other reason is because we have to let the meat un thaw.



I played on the Nintendo DS for a long time to kill time. I made some lunch and it was really good. I went on my computer for a bit and then we were talking to Granny on SKYPE. Dad got back from town and he bought a meat grinder and some groceries. Dad got the meat grinder out of its package and it turned out it was damaged so he went to town again to replace the meat grinder for another meat grinder that isn`t damaged. When he got home he got to saw`s that are regularly price 20.00 each other but they were on sale for 7.00 each. The cashier sold Dad 2 saw`s for 7.00 for the inconvenience.



When Darcy got home we were butchering the cow. It was really fun. We made lots of Hamburger and Darcy made some nice looking meat. I was taping and putting the scraps in the garbage can. Putting the meat that is going to be for Hamburger in the meat grinder and sometimes working the meat grinder and writing on the meat packages. We finished at 10:30 including cleaning up. I was so tired that I went to bed immediately.

At My Friends:)

Since I never wrote yesterday I will write to-day. I didn't write yesterday because I am at my friends house. So lets start what I did yesterday.

Today I slept in and I got dressed. I had some cereal (surprise no egg on toast!) and got right now my schoolwork. When I started my schoolwork it was around 10:30. I did a bit of English and I had to start a fire in the front room. Alise ( my bff) was on MSN and was talking to me. Mom heard the noise and she told me to do my schoolwork and you can talk to Alise later. Alise was asking me if I can come for a sleepover. I asked Mom and she said go ask your Dad. I asked my Dad and he said go ask my Mom because he said "I Don't care" I asked mom again and she said yes. I told Alise that I could come and she said" bring your schoolwork".


I packed all my stuff and got ready to go. When I was all packed up and was waiting for my brother Wes to pick me up and drop me off at his place and I can play with Alise. I was doing my oldest sisters (she has to be my oldest sister because Megan and I are the only daughters) hair and Mom was telling us girls how her Moms Mom used to do her hair. It was a bubble beehive. Mom was demonstrating on Megan's hair and mom had a phone call so I took over. Megan's hair is so thick I was half way done and I didn't want to finish the normal beehive and plus I can guarantee you that we didn't have enough bobby pins. So the leftover hair I braided it and I wrapped the braid around her head and she said she liked so much. I am her hair dresser now.


Wes had arrived and I got ready to go. He carried my sleeping bag and I carried my bag of clothes and my computer bag. When I arrived I put my stuff in Alise's room. We went on our computers and we played the sims for awhile. We went for a break and we babysit my little niece Grace. Alise and I went and put a movie on for Grace and Debbie (Alise's Mom)asked us girls to go through the material and the stuff we don`t want she is going to give it to the Salvation Army. We had some supper and it was good pancakes and we went and we played more Sims and then we watched a funny movie. We didn't finish the movie because Debbie said it was bedtime. We shut off all the electronics. We were talking a lot and Alise did my hair and we hung upside down to grow our hair. Alise looked it up on her computer and that's another story. We went to bed.


Today I got up and I had some breakfast. It was some really good cereal.I got dressed and Alise and I went and did our schoolwork and that's all we did. We did some ss (social Studies) and I am going to do some English and we are going to be done and that's it.

Resting Day

Today was our rest day (Saturday.I forgot to write yesterday so I am going to write today and going to write my blog about today tonight) and we don't do that much stuff besides reading,resting, eating, and watching movies. I watched Monarch Of The Glen and it is very very addicting. I was loosing my voice so I didn't talk that much (which is very very rare because when I have a sleepover at my friends house they say that I am always a chatter box). I went to the kitchen table waiting for our company coming. While I was waiting I looked at a cook book that I got from the Library yesterday and I showed my brother Darcy what is very good and he agreed with me. Darcy drank a bit of water and while I was looking though the cook book Darcy didn't swallow the drink instead he just spat it through his teeth on to me!!!! As I was mentioning that I lost my voice my scream sounded so weird and everybody told me to lower my pitch scream down. We had company and I played with Tyrell and Emerson. We opened up a garage sale and Dad and mom and Darcy came. We made 14.52 dollars. I packaged everything up with my vacuum sealer. Mom liked it very much. Jesse said that if I make some goodies he said he is going to pay me a lot. Tomorrow I will bake. That's pretty much it so ta ta.
