Ok so i got to go up to the farm again this weekend (for like the 6th time or something) it was fun. rick came up after work on friday, he started out to have teresa with him but they stopped at steve and julies and teresa decided to stay there instead of goin up to the farm this time. i went to the farm right after i got off work friday morning so i got there about 1pm i believe. i promptly went to bed but after a couple hours of sleep i decided to wake up and go do some shooting with the guys (trevor and roy) i must say, my aim really stinks like really bad stinks. i was using the excuse taht i was left handed trying to shoot right handed but then they just told me to hold the gun the other way so now ive about determined that i just have bad aim. ok so thats all with the gun part of the title, on to the car part.
I took my own car up to the farm cause it was making a really funny noise any time i went over 70mph and seeings how the speed limit is 75 it was becoming a bit of a problem. Grampa and trevor took it out for a test drive and when they came back they said WOW, i was almost afraid to go any faster cause i thought it was going to fall apart. (it had a rather bad vibration if you pushed on the gas to hard) so after a long discussion between various male relatives they finally decided it was most likely the CV joints (constant velocity) i have no idea what they are but it has to do with the wheels in the front. sorta the axle or something. Grandpa didnt think that he would be able to get the parts in shelby and so was prepared to order them and lend me one of his cars to drive in the mean time. Monday morning he headed to town to look for parts and surprisingly found everything he was looking for. So while he was fixing my axle, he went ahead and fixed my right blinker and left brake light as well as pounding all the dents in my fender out and re-painting it for me. it looked pretty much amazing for the first time in almost 2 years.
While grandpa and trevor were out in the shop, i decided to make some monkey bread. (thats where the monkeys come in) it was a really easy recipie and ended up tasting really really good, i think everyone agreed that it was pretty much amazing.
Tuesday i just puttered around and ran some errands with trevor for roy as roy was in Helena running errands for lyle. i left for home/work about 3:45. i was goin good, and about 7:30 i was almost to work and guess what! yup you guessed it, thats where the deer came in. i hit a stinkin deer and totally ruined not only the fender that grandpa had just fixed but the same blinker that he fixed as well, i tell you, some days it just makes me want to spit or something. my car is still in driveable condition but man, i was really likin it lookin nice like it did. i think one of the worst parts about it is that it hadnt even looked nice for a full 24 hours before it happened.
Oh, but the main happiness for me this weekend, that might even cancle out the dumb deer (i havent decided yet) Trevor and I are officially dating now. ok that is all, time for sleep now,
Bye

since i already commented on the events of your weekend via phone, I shall reserve this space to comment on your posting punctuation. would you be able to use the 'Enter' key now and then i.e. at the beginning of a new subject? it'd be much easier to read. your mother is getting elderly, so things like that matter now. capitalizing the beginnings of sentences would help, too. and the 'i's.
Glad you had a good time, love. :)
i approve shawna
well mother dearest, i must say that you dont have to read it :P its for my enjoyment and i hate all the punctuation and whatnot. it takes longer to type when im using it.
