I'm super excited though! I have loads of animals to watch over, feed and take care of. Chickens, horses, dogs, hamsters, cats, rabbits and a cockateel! I live almost 200 miles away ALL the way on the other side of Missouri...er well mot side so to speak. I live in the northern part of Missouri.
I've lost my chapstick!! Never mind I found it, forget that outburst even happened... Anyway. So while they are away for around a week, I have the ENTIRE house to myself...PAR-TAY!!! No I'm just joking lol. Things are so different here than they are in the city, just different in general than what I'm used to. Is it used to? Or use to? I don't know I see people use both, I think it's just one of those things that either or.
The scenery is beautiful! Lots of open areas, woods all that jazz. I sound like such a nerd, I know but I just love it here! I think I might move out to the country! I got to go into town with my new friend Dylan ( we're secretly new best friends, he just doesn't know it yet lol) so I got a chance to see the town before they left...leaving me here...all alone. *Starts crying crocodile tears* They told me there are sometimes armadillos out here near the woods, I would LOVE to see one! I've never seen one in person before! And no the zoo doesn't count. Although I don't think I've seen one at the zoo before either!
They've been so hospitable to me. To be honest, probably more than anyone I've ever met. They're really nice people, it's great to have friends like them people who really care. It's pretty rare to find people like them these days...that makes me sad :( *Starts to tear up*
Ok I'm just going to be honest, I'm singing "How to Save a Life" AT THE TOP OF MY LUNGS!! I could never do this if I were home! And no-one can hear me! Mwahahaha. Ok I went off on a little tangent didn't I??
We watched a movie the night before they left, and I got a chance to meet "Captain Ahab"! Who is Captain Ahab you ask? Oh you'll just have to meet him yourself!!
They are a large family, and to be honest I was a little nervous about meeting them. Well I met about 1/3 of them over a month ago but the other...7 I had not. But everyone was very kind, and made me feel right at home! I even got me own room! All of the animals are really neat and very sweet. Especially Blueberry, The Mini-Lop Rabbit!! Words...not enough of them...nor the right ones exist to explain how adorable Blueberry is!!
To be honest. Ok I use that term a lot don't I? Anyway, "to be honest" lol, it's a really nice break from city life. I can't wait quite put my finger on it, it's a wonderful change in scenery, and difference in behavior from people. Speaking of scenery, I took a few pictures while it was snowing and they turned out pretty good!
I've learned a lot of really useful things and tips, I'm all set for when I have my own farm someday lol! Oh I forgot to mention, two of them had birthdays also! Happy Birthday Troy and Paige!!
This time alone will give me chance to think, read and reflect on things. I will have a lot of time to sit and read my Bible ALL DAY if I choose lol! they also recommended some other books to me that I'll read also. This was a pretty cool opportunity that came up for me things are going great so far. All animals accounted for. I'm still alive. I haven't burned the house down! I haven't frozen myself yet! I haven't starved! Yeah I'd say it's been going pretty well so far.
Oh yeah and here are a few of the pictures I took!!!
