plans, plans, plans, clean, clean, clean

It's sunday and i should be doing homework instead of blogging but nah this is more fun!

My birthday was ok, no big presents but it was just another day. Nothing really special happened. This weekend has been sorta cool. Im amazed how much we have accomplished in 2 days. We fixed the cap dad made for the steps last winter and put it away...big wooden thing to keep out snow from the basement steps cause it's hard work shoveling that. Then we moved to the house. We cleaned out the basement more and oh btw we got a new printer/copier/scanner. This whole cleaning thing was sparked by that coming. We have it in the basement where the new entertainment room is planned to be within the next year and dad drilled wholes throught the upstairs and downstairs walls hooking the computer and printer up with some extra jacks for later on. Then yep the basement rec room is like wow a gold mine i tell ya. Ive found so much cool stuff! But most of it's going to goodwill, camp fire office, mom's school, or the dumpster! haha. We have so many projects for this summer! were cleaning and reorganizing the basement rec room and making it the only room in the house with a tv and were getting a new couch suposably, oh that means that i won't have a tv in my room. Then dad's room well that's our next project. See we want to move all the electronics outside then saw 12in off his huge bench and move it back to his repair room after we tear out some shelves that have been back there that were suposed to be temporary. then were gonna go through all his electronics and put what we keep back on his new bench in his repair room. We plan on getting a new bed for back there in his room and a dresser, for one of these days we know grandma or grandpa will have to move in with us. Then we move to outside where dad plans to build a new shed, put in a new fence and level the back yard. Which will take a long while! But it needs to happen and they are finally doing it! well we are finally doing it!

Well my life this what almost month since i blogged has been a lot of volunteering. I volunteered at the yellow ribbon thing for the military kids where we baby sat them while there parents were in a meeting. It was a 4-H thing. Then i was in charge of fitting and showing at the davenport rabbit show last weekend and it went well. That same day i had to turn in my application for Washington State RAbbit Breeders Associations Management contest that consisted of 7 pages of 12 font typing of answering questions. Blah! This last weekend we went to a bbq out at some farm on the south hill i think where they do like polo horse stuffs and i got burnt on my knees in some weird shapes let me tell ya! lol and i was even wearing spf 50 sunscreen! ohh geee. then lets see...oh yeah my birthday is tomorrow and i have nothing planned this weekend at all soooo....yeah. lol.. oh i guess i could tell ya that um my eye sight is officially getting worse! yep i went to the eye doctor yesterday and i got a stronger prescription for glasses and contacts. oh and a new type of contacts.

Phone...arg i wanna shoot you!

So don't text me or call me! my phone is retarded! no joke! wanna hear why? omg. Ok so i was all mom no one has been texting me since like Saturday night, and she was all that's weird! Cause i usually have to empty my mail box everyday! so then i looked in my sent box and hmmm maybe it's because no one is receiving them either cause i only really text Verizon people and they didn't have little check marks next to them. Then i went to the lunch table and senaida asked me why i didn't text her back! Um i did u just didn't get it! so then in English she finally got the text i sent her Sunday morning! yeah so i called Kim, Katelyn's mom, the lady who i pay for my phone kk, and she told me to call the Verizon store and talk to one of the service people. So i did and i told her all that and she looked up my phone # and said well your phone is due for some updates do you have a memory card? And i don't so she told me they are 25$ and i had just spent 15 of my 30 on gas sooooo i had to go home and explain to my dad why i needed 25 bucks. And the girl i was speaking to on the phone says the updates should fix it and if that doesn't work then they will call teck center! so ive seriously not been texting for 3 days now and it's like killer! cause im the one who comes up with corny stuff to say and then sends the random text and i can't do that cause frankly if i sent it to you u would probably get it like Friday! no joke! So kk im replying when i get it but frankly u won't get it! And i called Rushele today and left a voice mail. She called me back and said she had her phone in her hand on loud and she only knew that i had left her a voice mail and didn't see that i was calling! OK now that is messed up! So my phone is officially retarted and slow and blah, annoying!

Yep the life of ashley when she doesn't have a phone! it's so sad! how am i going to go 4 weeks without it! Actually i bet i won't even know i am not using it! haha...jeff's gonna be so phone deprived! him and his blackberry!haha

Bloomsday 2009

This Saturday i took the SAT and it killed my brain. No joke! After that i went out to Katie's and we "made brownies" but hahahaha we forgot eggs and it turned into what looks like a cow pattie! lol. So we went and got some cookies at the grocery store and picked up slum dog millionaire. we ate all 24 of those cookies and watched the whole movie before 8:30 when i had to leave cause it was getting dark and my lights suck! haha.

Sunday mom and i got up and were infront of city hall at 7am. We volunteered to hand out bloomsday t-shirts. I think it was more work than actually walking it!
Here are some pictuers i took.

All the tables were set up and a big snyders bread truck was full of shirt boxes that all had to go on the tables. It took us forever to unload all them.


When we were able to open the boxes and see the new shirt. Mom with a shirt! We were at the XL table and were surrounded by all these old big guys that were hilarious! Sayin like exhale in hale come get ur XL! haha! they made up so many corny jokes! It def. made it fun! :)

Look how many shirts there are!!!! mom and i estimated to handing out about 1300 XL shirts! wow that's a lot! BTW what you see is only half! there are more boxes under the tables!
The first women runners we saw! We all cheered! Gooo bloomies!!! :) It was quite fun, but so exausting!
