I purposely brought a very long book with me while traveling, which is why the list looks sad lol. I feel behind though :P
I did a thing!
Joelle or Gina mentioned something about dyeing hair, and I couldn't get it out of my head, so I got it done today! How fun! Everyone says it looks natural lol
On Saturday Gina thought it would be fun to go to a garage sale, so we got in the car and followed an "Estate Sale" sign to a fancy neighborhood. I had a feeling there'd be a four-poster bed in that house. :P Estate sales are kinda sad because you know someone died, and Joelle got so upset going through the house that she ended up sobbing, awww. :( I was indeed right about a four-poster bed, though it was a kids princess-y bed..mom was amused by my squeeing LOL. It was fun, and we all ended up with a pile of stuff :P
Tomorrow mom and Cindy and I are driving back to Santa Fe (I think Gina's leaving tonight). It's been entertaining, especially with Gina around (she's just crazy haha). We've definitely spoiled grandma by taking her out to eat and shopping and stuff. I love how happy and positive Joelle is, even with her POTS stuff and other health issues. All the animals have loved the extra attention. It'll be sad leaving, though somewhat relieving because all this socializing is exhausting haha. I imagine we'll be back though!

May 1 – School Bus Drivers' Day: When you were young, did you have to take a school bus to get to school? Yeah, though my parents drove me too
