Figure it Out

(Sometimes, I write posts like this.  I just have to get it out of my system.)

Some things I've been pondering on:

1  Why I'm the only one in my family of thirteen who doesn't like iced tea.  I've tried it.  Several times.  But I just don't like it.

2  How to fold the sheets with the tight band around them.  Know what I mean?  It looks like a wad when I get done with it.

3  What to do for my sixteenth birthday party.  Kiley told me that a party is imperative.  Now I just need to do something about it.

4  Why, every time we go somewhere, my family walks in a row like little ducks following their parents.  It happens, without fail.  Especially in church.

5  What the people at CVS think when they hear who's calling.  Again.  (We've been sick.)

6  How it can be so cold and still not snow.  I'm a snow + cold kind of girl.  Not cold + sunshine.

7  Ways to get out of the house, even for a little bit.  I have gracious friends.  :)  But in all seriousness, I feel like I've been living in my house for too long.  Is that ironic?

8  How many loads of laundry I've folded over a two day period.  I don't even want to know.  It's probably some ridiculous number.  It feels like 200.

The end.

Got anything you've been trying to figure out?  I'd really love to know.  :)

  2. #2 and #6 = YES. those darn sheets just look like dirty laundry again whenever I try to fold them. and the weather! it's driving me crazy!
    I always thought I would have some big party for my sweet sixteen, but I ended up with a little sleepover/pizza & movie night with a few friends, and it was so much fun! just pick something that sounds nice to you, I guess.
    loved this post :)

  5. I'm still trying to figure out #6 too . . . We haven't had snow all this winter and fall. If it's not snowing, then it should be 80 degrees outside. :)

  7. I'm with you on the snow bit. It's freezing. No snow. The two things just don't add up. They don't even belong in a SENTENCE together. Snowless in winter. *Shudder*

  9. This will all seam normal after a while.
    16th birthday? Well that's special! AND you'll have even more guests than you expected! Ideas, ideas :) Look online. Lotsa help :o)
    slumber partay, go somewhere (bowling, dinner with friends etc.?) also if you want, chose your favourite thing and make it a theme for the day/night. Take photos, HAVE A PHOTO SHOOT WITH YOUR FRIENDS OR GUESTS FROM THE PARTAY. Make it your own :) Hope this helped! I am thinking about becoming a teenager soon too! We both have milestone b-days comin' up!! WHOOT WHOOT!

    Glad you lived through this red carpet comment {my name for really long ones} :)
    Love and blessings,

  13. Cold and snow is a definite must! I only have eight siblings, and we all walk like ducks when we go anywhere, too. It makes it seem like there's a lot more people than there really are! And we like to laugh at the people who are obviously counting us. :P

  14. I've been trying to figure out what I want to do for my next blog design. And I got $35 bucks for Christmas and it disappeared. I'm NOT careless with money, I have no clue what happened.
    Number 4? I laughed at loud. And of course, people just stare. Haha, my friend, who has six siblings, was talking about the same thing. I've had a lady literally point her fingers and count all the kids in the car as her husband maintained the same speed as my dad. On interstate. Seriously, people?
    Number 2? I watched a video about a year ago from YouTube (of course!) on how to do it, and I practiced, and I can say that I do know how to fold those sheets. lol.
    Yes, long comment. :)
