Post TN trip
Following my trip to Tennessee, I looked for work. Despite applying places, I never got a call back from anyone. In the grand scheme of things, my not having a job was a good thing, because the day after Father's Day, Mom fell at work and broke her right foot, also known as her driving foot. Therefore I took over as Mom, and we upgraded the animals so that Abby got upgraded to daughter, Honey got upgraded to dog, toaster got upgraded to cat and Mom got demoted to toaster. So I would get up when she did in the morning, take the dog out, get them both breakfast, then I usually went back to sleep for a little bit and got up like an hour or so later. We watched, and I became addicted to, "Jon and Kate Plus 8" on TLC. The kids are way cute and Jon and Kate are funny in their commentary of things going on. Then I'd make lunch and we'd watch "As the World Turns" and "Guiding Light." Later on I'd make dinner and set up and clean up after it. I learned how to cook for more than one, which I guess will be a good thing later on. I also got plenty of driving practice in, as I took her to the store, doctor's appointments, anywhere she needed to go. I guess I wasn't meant to have a job for that reason this summer, but that's a hard sell of a reason to people. Haha. And it has allowed me to read a lot. Currently I have just started my 9th book of the summer. That's nice since I expect a lot of reading this semester and know I'm not going to have time for leisure books.
