Just a quick little note to keep Miss Judi satisfied. ;-P
We had a load of junk that we took to the dump today, so guess who drove! It was my first time on the road, and let me tell you, fifty-five miles/hour is a LOT faster when it's you behind the wheel! My brother, who comments with the name 'Asdef' so I'll call him that, rode along, and it wasn't bad enough that I was rather a little freaked, he had to whimper and squeal too. I'm not taking him along next time. He's too distracting.
After we went to the dump, Dad had me drive out west of town to Avalon and Catfreaks' place, so I could show off my new skills and get a bit of practise driving on gravel. That was better, because the road was deserted and I could drive at a more comfortable pace--about thirty-five to forty. Unfortunately, they have cats and a dog, which made it even more frightening trying to avoid hitting one. I think I killed a butterfly, but thankfully, that was it. A moment of silence for the poor butterfly, please.
Okay, that's enough. So I still find driving fun, but it is just a little nerve-racking. We need to find a nice, large, yellow magnet that says, in black letters, "WARNING: STUDENT DRIVER". Dad said maybe we should get some flashing yellow lights to put on top while we're at it.
I packed up all my paint supplies yesterday. :-( I miss them. Hopefully, I'll get a good enough sized room to put my paint table in.
Well, my friends, that's all I have to say at the moment. Comment away! By this time, a week and a day hence, we will be either unloading the u-haul or done with that and on to organizing the boxes at the new house. See ya!

IT'S DONE!!!!!! WE'RE DONE HERE!!!!!!!!
This was written on Monday afternoon:
WE SOLD OUR HOUSE!!!! We are finally moving out of here!!!! Praise God, the house is sold! Okay, not exactly sold, but we're renting it out for a year, then the people renting it are going to buy it!!!
That's what Mom and Dad met with the realtor about today, some people who came through and looked at it two weeks ago came back on Saturday, and made an offer on it! I'm sooo glad, but now things are going to be moving very quickly. We have to have all our stuff out of the garage by September first, so the new people can put their things in there. Then we have until Monday, September 15th to vacate the premises. But Rapunzel and I are both like "Oh, my, goodness, that's WAAAAAAY too soon! Only 3 more weeks???" AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!! That means only three more Sundays, only three more days of youth group!!! This is almost too fast! But it means we will get The House we want, and I'll get a room of my own! But it also means I have to tell all my friends, which I don't think I'll enjoy doing. Rapunzel has been emailing back and forth with a girl inside the 'C.C.', and she (Rapunzel) says she can't wait to tell her (the friend) that we'll be seeing each other every week in a little less than a month. I have to get off now. I was cleaning part of my room earlier, and I've got to finish that and then get down to the bus stop. My friend, Megan, had her first day of High School today, and so I'm going to try to meet her when she gets off the bus. I'm not looking forward to telling friends, especially Katlynn and Kim, since we're just beginning to get to know each other well.
That was typed at 3:00 on Monday. I waited to post it because I had to tell certain friends first. If I don't post regularly for the next three weeks and y'all get impatient with me, just keep in mind why I'm not posting!
So that's what I've been doing. I have to pack my paint supplies, which shall be sorely missed for three weeks, the decorations in my room, my books, my STUFF, and my life. And my three porcelain dolls, which I'm really nervous about, because I don't want there to be any chance of their breaking! My glass bell. My jewelry box (without the most used jewelry in it). HOW AM I GONNA LIVE FOR THREE WEEKS WITHOUT MY STUFF??? *sigh*
This is going to be the hardest three weeks of my life.
Well, I now need to go work on my room some so Rapunzel can start packing her things, and then my grandparents are coming for lunch and to help with clearing the garage.
Goodbye! I'll write again when I have the chance!
