sunscreen

great weekend in olathe. got to see so many friends. went to two shows. hang outs every night. sunday morning heard bean sing a offertory special. it was very good. i haven't heard him just sing in so long. (nice work bean!) then headed home at about 11:30.

i am getting quite attached to miss sophie and what do you know i'm gone for the next two weeks. it will be in humid hot orlando florida. i plan on getting a tan but with sunscreen. tonight markli and i made a wal-mart run for some face-wash and she needed toothpaste. mom needed creamer for her coffee. anyways, we passed the sunscreen. we don't have much, if any at home. and if we do it's old. (i don't know if age has anything to do with quality but didn't think it would hurt to get new. :) ) so we got some good aveeno face sunscreen with 70 spf. haha yes 70! i don't like a burnt face--it's the worst kind of burn. and then we just got some banana boat 30 spf. i just would rather slowly get a tan and i have two weeks to get one. i am still in need of new suit. mine right now looks like a life-guarding one but it's nike.

so the dog had to be put down on friday. i must say i was okay with it all. she seemed in pain quite a bit--if not all the time. it is weird though because over the years i became so used to her routine or just how she walked around the house. like every-time i closed the door behind me angel (dog) came in right behind me so i had to turn around and close the door again. i've caught myself a couple times doing that. OR, if i lay down on the floor she would always come over and see what i was doing. just those kinds of things. it's weird but a good thing. she was getting pretty bad.

today my great grandpa died. he was nearing 100, i think. he lived a great life. he was quite the farmer back in the day. he was also ready to go though. he was just holding on by the meds the doctors gave him. his funeral is saturday.

going to do some major reading tomorrow cause the book is due monday (the day we leave for general assembly). it's a huge book. then i need to go to the library for more books to read over the next two weeks. i just hope i'll be able to enjoy all of the relaxation time down there. and that i'll have enough to do otherwise. i know there are going to be several friends down there from everywhere. family will also be there.

i think i need chipotle some day for lunch this week.

alright, peace

quite a week eh...first the dog, then grandpa...that sounded terrible, but you know what I mean. I'm sure orlando will be a blast.

I'm sorry to hear about your grandpa. Sounds like he lived a good long life though. I must admit i envy your passion to read, wish i had that desire.
