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

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.

Spring Break Madness!!!

Last weekend, the weekend before spring break, was the Pacific Northwest Qualifier at EWU. Well lets just say i played everygame and well i played good but the team was stuck in all this drama, that i ignored cause i want no part in that junk, and so well we lost all but one of our games sad to say. Oh our back line needs to pick it up cause well thats what we lost on! UGG...nothing i could have done i never get put in back there!

Monday mom and i ran errands to everywhere. haha. Later dad told me i had to change my tires so i went out and he just sat in moms car with the door open and told me what to do...im such a visual learner and hands on learner so this helped a lot! If i would have just watched him i would have been clueless the next time.

Tuesday i had vball practice and haha i followed mom in my car to the place and then she went downtown for some shopping or something...i never know, actually i don't care!...but i ended up calling her cause i wasn't really paying attention while driving there and sorta didn't know how to get back to the freeway. Then i was supposed to go meet matt and casey's twins but they went shopping so i stayed home and was a couch pottato all afternoon.

Wednesday...yay...i drove in the fast lane ;) to kk's and we had scrapbooking day part 2! haha...like my title? lol. We went to michals, i needed another scrapbook, and then we watched 90210 and slumdog millionare, which were both good! KK tomorrow 90210! haha. Then at like 5:30 i left to go home only to find out my mother wouldn't have mined if i stayed the night! UGGG! really mom! ok well now that we know that i guess if i get stuck in a "storm" at ur house i can stay! haha...that is if its cool w/ u. :)

Thursday...hmmm what did i do?... oh i went around doing errands with mom cause kk didn't go to matt and casey's sooo... yep then homework and like 4 more scrapbook pages got accomplished.

Friday mat, mom, and i went to silver for our last runs of the year...weird we went to silver for our last runs of the year last year too! haha...and it was so fun! Mat and i wanted to stay longer but mom said no. Darn well maybe next year i can drive mat and i and we can stay as long as we want! booyaaa ya for licences! hahaha. I did the terain park btw like a lot bc of him and no am a pro! actually i like biffed it good a few times! haha i hit this unexpected jump and dang good thing for fresh pow or i would have been dead! haha. But yeah then i took him on some massave work out runs called mogals, which he hates! haha. On the way home we dropped off louie some boots that used to be mine matter of fact that were huge on me! I hear they fit him perfectly which is great cause he complained last time i skiied with him.
Saturday was clean, clean, clean! I organized the whole kitchen. I took everything off the shelves and bleached the shelves and put everything back. We took our wood pile and an old mattress and put it in the truck. I swore that that truck was going to break! Some guy who always comes over, he is russian i can't spell his name, got some rabbit fertilizer aka poo for his garden. Matter of fact a lot of people call for it! It's really funny, but great cause we get rid of it! Then mom and i went to win-co and shopped for my gparents. It was my first time in there and it was a mad house! kk i don't know how u went in there with the twins! geee. I did my home didy work and then couldn't sleep so i scrapbooked till like 12 or so. Yeah like imagine me sitting in the middle of my room scrapbooking with my headphones in on my playlist...kk u know the one...till i finished i think 5 pages! Im going a little scrapbook crazy!! OK maybe more than a little! :)

Sunday dad and i got up early to go take the truck to the transfer station and didn't make it there the first time out of the gate! haha One of his spark plugs kept missing and we couldn't get past 2nd gear so we coasted back home and changed it and then went and ya know that truck is 28 years old and she still goes! Maybe smokes and putt putts, but goes! haha. We dumped that and came home and raked the yard, trimmed tree's, cleaned the garrage, yeah i think thats it. Mom and i went to the mall and did some shopping i got a new bathing suit and clothes. Here is my swimsuite! For some reason it has it upside down... stupid thing!


Now i plan on doing homework and scrapbooking more! hahahaha....:)
