ADD update

Well, sorry this took so long to post. I guess I'll save the deep stuff for another day and just give you the quick synopsis of life.

The Brookings Summer Art Festival has come and gone again. I was a good year. An amazing year, really. My mom sold six paintings and took in more than any other summer so far. She did well enough that my parents decided they should help me buy a car. I'm just praying we can find a good one before I go back to school.

Let's see, I actually missed quite a bit of the festival because Dianna brought me to Sioux Falls for Audrey's birthday party. Yay! So many people I hadn't seen in a very long time. It was great. Adam's brother Nate was sprisingly good at Mafia for his first time, and we all had fun slaughtering each other through three rounds.

Hmm, what else? I've seen the new Pirates movie twice now. Man is it good! I cannot wait until next summer to see how things turn out. I'm sure that East India company has their fingers in more places than they'd like us to know.

Monday through Wednesday of this past week I spent camping with family at Cutty's Resort in Iowa. I hadn't been there in about seven years. It's funny how much smaller the miniature golf course seems now. I slept on a shelf bunk over grandma's bed in her camper, which was a different sort of place to be. Besides grandma, we were camping with my great uncle Doug and his wife, another aunt and uncle, and my cousin and her two little girls, all relatives on my dad's side. Kianna is eight and Stacie is two and a half, and they ran me completely ragged the first night. It was great fun though. This was our only family vacation of the summer. I'm the only one making it out to Judson this year, and that's in less than a week now. I guess it's a good thing I already found a ride out there, or I would be starting to panic right about now. Knowing that I'll be out there all week with Polly and Steve makes the whole counseling idea a little less scary.

Tonight I closed up the salad bar with Lynette, one of the daytime ladies. I love working with her because things actually get done. She sees a thing to do and she does it, unlike some of the girls who whine about their work and take extra-long breaks because they feel like it. Oh well. At least I only have to work two more days before I get nearly two weeks off for camp.

I know this was all rather ADD and incomplete, but it's all you get. I'm tired now.
