well, i dont have much blog experience, so this will probably be pretty boring. anyways, Few months ago i was informed of a family reunion in Albion, Michigan. Great idea, i think to myself, well, the time gets closer and closer, i get a job, and get the time off, and its set.
Packing was easy enough, took me all of an hour, but getting the truck ready, that was the "fun" part. we put the camper shell on, cleaned it, and ran some wire to give us power in the back of the camper, we also put sleeping bags, and a hid-a-bed mattress. i turned off my computer and we loaded up the trailer (which included i tiller i previously moved to the driveway) and we were off! The ride started out ok, but then it became to cold, followed by too hot, but it was just right as we were getting around the michigan area. First thing i did was get ready to go swim, yeah thats something i wanna do after riding in the back of a truck for a while, uh huh. well anyways, fire and ice were reunited, and for the first time i jumped off a diving board. at first i wasn't sure if i was able to swim or not still (i've forgotton once in the past) but i decided i would be saved by one of the lifeguards if i didn't, so i decided to chance it. lol. anways, i slept in a tent while there, which suprisingly i got used to. It was great seeing my nieces and nephews again, but i was more tired than anything i do around here.. but well worth it. One thing i really liked was seeing an old book of mormon, thats an experience i'll never forget.
I went two sundays to church. i must say, it was rather enjoyable, i love church, i just never really get woken up to go to the one here much though... i like smaller churches anyways. wen't to lake michigan, and gravity decided to drop my phone in the lake, luckliy rice and about 15 or so hours later, it works just fine, also i blew it out with the air compresser, unfortunatly the storage card didn't make it, and i had 170 pictures i took there. its sad. all and all i much enjoyed the trip! i can't wait for the next year! the time wen't by way to quick though, it didn't even feel like a week, and yet it was at least two. ..as for the days following,
the trip back i bought an air conditioner for my room, stoped at a home depot, costed 85, and not long after at a walmart there was a custom tag engraver thing, five dollars, so i made a tag for my dog, has his name, and my phone number. so thats up to $90, and then i arrived home, happy to see my computer again, but unfortunatly, it has some problems, one its had in the past, this time to save headaches, and lots of time, i searched the problem on the internet and downloaded and bought some software, $40, so now im up to $130, and all was well, i woke up this morning, and my computer was messed up, lots of messing with it revealed it was a graphics card problem, so i ordered one (its coming out of new jersey i think) and its about 50 dollars... so in three days time, i spent about $180, but hey, at least i didn't spend it all in once place! i get paid tomorrow, so ill get about $70, which naturally i intend to spend on a new card, screen protectors, and extra battery for my phone, so i guess i dont have any money to my name, not after i pay tithing anyways...all in all my airconditioner is installed, but no power there yet, after dinner i'll probably work on that.. so there you have it.. i probably missed alot of details, but im being rushed to the dinner table right now. so i guess the basics are good enough. im hungry anyways.
