I am currently living with Aunt Gwen, (Maggie if i ever had a character for you to add to ur some-day book, she would be it!!) she is 55 and single, and every bit accentric as your probably picturing her to be. She has been "planning on" painting all the walls in her house and has not decided upon a color yet, thus each wall is covered in strokes of paint that are all different pastel blue/yellow/white/green colors. She wanted to try each one before she decided on one. 25 YEARS LATER each stroke remains.. and a decision does not seem to be on the horizon...it is like living in an easter sunday fun house.
here is a sample from one of the walls in her house:
I had my first day of work today!! Heather dropped me off and I got right to work packaging up left over race for the cure t shirts. Obviously i stole one. oops. I also entered a bunch of info into an excel sheet... never done that before... had to remember how to work excel from the brief tutorial sydney gave me a month ago... hey, at least they didnt ask me to make coffee, i would have been even more unsuccessful.... wow, why did they hire me? miracle.
The weather is amazing, not one drop of rain in 3 weeks!!! HA!! drier than fayetteville what do you know?? Our good family friend and fellow staff-kid corie klein is here visiting heather!! It has been so much fun, I will post pictures soon! Her and heather played in a old-peoples inturmural kick- ball game tonight, and luckily i did not have to play.. instead i stayed on the sidelines and befriended charlie (one of the local bums, who enjoyed being the announcer for the game from Wrigley Field, where he actually thought we were, he even gave us the full weather report from chicago, IL... thanks chuck.)
No work tomorrow!! I will post more pictures! I love and miss everyone so much, and i love you even more if you are reading this!!!
