Babysitting

Babysitting can be really fantastic sometimes and completly enjoyable! But, other times... it's a total downer. I'm babysitting for my "step-mom" right now and her kids will not seem to shut up and go to bed. The sit there in bed and whisper to eachother. Most likely plotting how they are going to run away or something like that!
This one time when I was babysitting, the little boy was insisting on using his brother's toothbrush instead of his. My sister and I kept telling him, "No you have to use yours, you'll get germs on your brothers, he won't want that." But then, ofcourse, he started to cry. What where we supposed to do then. Well we ended up just letting him use his brothers. I really hope his brother never found out.

Divorce

Divorce can affect many people, not just the two people that the seperation is between. I know this because my parents got divorced about two and a half years ago. They're both remarried now, but thoughts still strike my mind about why it happened. My parents hid it so well that I never knew it was coming. It was a complete shoke to me. I still feel if I side wtih one of my parents on a decision that I'm betraying the other, or if I stay at my mom's house I'm betraying my dad.

I know it's affected me greatly. Try to keep your marriages together people. It's hurting our nation with so many people separating.

Itunes

In the past six months I've gotten very interested or caught up in Itunes and buying music for my ipod. I discoverd Genius. After you buy a song or album it shows you what other people have also bought who bought that song. I've found so many nobody artists that are amazing. Artists such as:
  • Matt Wertz
  • Dave Barnes
  • Benton Paul
  • Asher Book
  • Landon Pigg
  • and many other most amazing musical artists.

I've had so much fun discovering them, and my sister claims that I have the best taste in music she's ever known. She downloads all of the songs that I buy, along with a few of her songs. I think it's amazing that in this day and age we have Ipods, laptops, and other such devices that make our life's amazing. Anything is ours practically at the touch of a button!

Winter Wonderlands

Weather here makes me wonder sometimes. A three days ago it was forty degrees Fahrenheit outside and just yesterday it snowed about tree inches! How does weather switch from such different extremes so quickly. I walked my dog and now I can't even walk myselft outside or my boots get soaked with wet packed snow (That is what happened to me walking home from the bus stop today).

Summer and Winter both are good extremes. Summer has:
  • Swimming
  • Boating
  • and Softball

As the opposite winter has:

  • Skiing
  • Sleding
  • Snowball fights
  • and Snowmen

All these are good, but I can't seem to decide which is my ultimate favorite. I like these cold, gray winter days. Days that let you savor a bad mood. But, I miss those perfect summer days. Summer days where the sun is shining, birds are sining, a breeze is blowing, and the lawn mower is broken. But, each day, in both seasons, has it's pirks.

Do you ever feel that when it's winter you want it to be summer and when it's summer you deathly wish for the colder winter weather?
