New Table

I couldn't sleep so I woke up at five o'clock this morning. I laid in bed for half an hour, then got up and made some breakfast, then read a few chapters in my book, and then I went for a walk. When I got back at seven twenty I was bored so I went back to bed. I got up again three hours later when dad got home from the shack. I helped ma organize some books downstairs and then we all went to Duluth to pick up mom's new kitchen table from the Amish furniture place. The real reason I went was because I knew they'd have to stop for lunch and dinner and us broke unemployed recent college grads are always looking for free food. I really need to work on building some upper body strength though, I had a time of it helping haul the old table to the shed and getting the new one up the stairs. I was going to bed when ma started yacking at me to start packing up my "trinkets and dodads" in my room before I left for basic. So I filled a whole box of beanie babies to get her to go away. It wasn't so bad though, now all my glass stuff fits in my display cupboard and I found out I had a matching set of buddy and baby Mattie cats.





I still have a lot of other stuff to put away yet but maybe I can put it off till ma is done with her books. And she's been working on those books for a really long time.
