a ha! tracy is back! and until exactly 17 seconds ago, i couldn't remember anytihng i did saturday. it was quite, quite frightening. i thought i had amnesia or something! i remembered friday and sunday... but no saturday.
but, alas, i have remembered. saturdya morning my mommy took me over to this awesome place in carrollton called Remember When, it has old movie posters and pictures of movie stars, and everything a die-hard fan could ever dream of. and she let me pick out a poster, i ended up with the italian promo poster for My Fair Lady with a huge audrey hepburn covering most of it. it's awesome! so we bought that... and then we came home... oh yeah! i had a junior bacon cheeseburger, and wihlst i know how disgustingly unhealthy they are, it was sooooo wonderful! (then i ran it off, or tried to.)
uhh... then i worked on my room all day, trying to see my carpet through all my junk, then saturday night White Christmas came on, and i'd never seen it before but EVERYONE always told me i would love it, including val, so i watched it, and now i'm scared because val was always telling me she wanted to watch it with me and i watched it without her! aaaaah! but, hey, she's skiing and that isn't fair so THERE! HA! anyway...
sunday morning kerry and her mom came by and picked me up and we drove to the bustling community of italy, texas... population 2000... one stop light that doesn't even work... everybody hangs out at the dairy queen... and i went to their new church where jeff's the preacher! jenna was so surprised to see me! it was fun. after church we went to the dairy queen and ate (me! eating out on a sunday! i had no choice...), then we went to their house and unpacked boxes and boxes and more boxes, then we came home. and i was home for like an hour, then we went to church at casa view, which was a business meeting on closing the school.
the deacons and the staff and everybody has been studying the budget and how much the school costs, etc. and they decided that since our church is broke we need to shut down the casa view school. but all these parents of kids in the school came to the meeting and were like "my little billy has been in your school since he was 5 and he has learned sooo much... and disd is NOT an option because dallas schools are bad..." blah blah. well anyway, i frowned every time someone put down public school because i have gone to public school since 1st grade and i think i have turned out just fine! i am a strong christian and God is number one in my life, and i have a close circle of friends that don't pressure me into bad decisions, etc. so THERE! private school is NOT neccessary to raise decent kids! grrrr!
but anyway, we voted and they won, as in we are NOT closing the school. i don't know how we're going to pay for it, though. our church is definitely suffering.
so this morning my mom left a list of things i need to do... and cleaning the computer desk took exactly 1 hour and 24 minutes. it was dirty. very dirty.
love!
