"what's new?"

ahhh yes one of my favorite phrases! well, what IS new....?
wednesday was turtle race day...........what to say. nisswa, the chocolate ox , it was all a blur. i opened at 10 and joe, paige, and savanna, came at 11, but they had to work until close. apparently i'm better at ice cream so i end up working with joe. about 200 kids participate in turtle races plus two parents two grandparents and a couple siblings, all decide..."HEY I WANT ICE CREAM" within the same hour. it was the four of us all day, bc no one else could work (even though bo and blair came in and felt sorry for us). there was also this one couple that spent $5 on ice cream and left me a $5 tip! (i think he thought it was a one) so over all $11 extra isn't bad. then my parents and i went out to eat at kelly's, and after we visited the "spec" house that my dad was working on. took a little tour, and realized this was like MTV cribs. ohh you know nice lake front and vaulted cielings, that would only cost us like 1.3 mill......yeah chunk change (did i mention i made $11!!!). maybe when i become famous for doing nothing 50 years after i die my grandchildren can buy that house... but in the meantime.

today i began with the elks booth, things were a little different than we remember them, but actually better and more familiar. we were makin the $$$, by 1pm we had over $90 in tips! laleen is like the funniest mom i know (jared's mom "he play's percussion!"), just one of those people that you could put in a closet and she would find someone to talk to. oddly enough after the fair amanda j and i both worked at poncho's hostessing NOT waitressing. to add to spending the previous four hours together we ran into many previous band members at poncho's. first brittany stegora who previously checked out the fair (and was not impressed), but could relate to us, then of all band people the folkeringas arrive, we noticed the trend, and as they leave karla and amy esperson arrive! what?! i'll ask amanda tom. who came after them, but if it's paul himself maybe there's some secret conspiracy to check up on us.

well i guess i'll do the same thing all over again tom. maybe throw in a bonfire just to change things up a bit, and don't worry NOT commenting is the latest rage i hear (jk). NO ONE is too "busy" to chek the blog (unless your out of state). there's only so much summer left, don't forget to enjoy it and stay away from the back to school section of the department stores ( it could damage you health it's so overwhelming), although you are allowed to purchase duck tape.
