CRAZY

I am working at my Aunts Motel this weekend because she wanted to go visit my Grandma in the hospital. It was supposed to be easy and uneventful. Well let's just say that it has been the most crazy hours of my life.

(first let me say that I was not supposed to do anything with the UHall part of it at all, we were just not going to rent out trailers because it is to hard to try to teach people how to do.)

(Also we are booked for both Friday and Saturday night because there is a horse and Gun show in town.)

Here are the events of the Day SO FAR:

1. A Lady comes to the front office to inform me that she is not leaving her hotel room, because her sister passed away, and she was told by my aunt that there would be room for her. Well I guess my Aunt must have forgot that we were already booked up for the weekend. She started crying telling me that there was no other place for her to go.

2. A UHall truck comes in. In my head I am thinking Oh S**** what am I going to do know. Well they then tell me that there truck is not working right. The back end wont open so they cant get any of the stuff out of the back end. Well being as smart as I am I give them the 1-800 number of UHall repairs. Then they come in and tell me that they want me to give them a day free because they are not going to be able to have the truck back in the time that it was due back because they had to get it fixed. I then gave them another 1-800 number to the main UHall branch so that they could talk to them. So hopefully the get a extra day so I don't have to deal with that till tomorrow.

3. Last night the Police department brought in a lady to stay at the motel. Well I think that her husband was hitting her so she took off in her truck with her dog. Well she got pulled over because of the way that she was driving. It turns out that her licenses was suspended. Instead of giving her a ticket they brought her to the motel to stay so that she could be a way from her husband. Well she left the next morning with out paying. About two hours later she shows back up at the motel with her dog. She has crippling arthritis, so she has to walk with a cane. Not to mention the fact that her dog is pulling her. She asked to use are phone because she needs to get a ride. About an hour later her HUSBAND show up to get her. She comes to give me a hug and to thank me for my help. She then tells me if he hits her to call the police. I ask her if is safe for her to go with him, I told her that we could get her another rife to wherever she wants to go. She tells me that she will be alright because she has her pepper spray. Then gets in the truck and they drove off.

4. Then another UHall truck comes. In but this time I have to check them in so I call another 1-800 number and ask them if they can talk me through. I was able to do it with there help and everything was ok.

Hopefully nothing else crazy happens today. We have no more rooms to rent out so the Door Bell should not ring to much more! :)

Rain

I love rain! :) Except when it causes water to come into by basement. Then I really don't like it that much at all. We have a plumber coming tomorrow so hopefully everything will work out. I had a great day today, I was able to hang out with the Potters, and then my cousin Shelby. But the best part of the day was hanging out with Cole. I have missed spending time with her so it was great to hang out hopefully we can make Wednesday nights and Cole and Kirsten night.

My Grandma is having her surgery tomorrow morning (Thursday) at 5:00am. I said earlier that I wasn't nervous but well now I am. I guess today I was just thinking about her not being around and I started to cry. She is the rock of our family the one that holds the rest of us together. When ever there is a fight with family members, she gets the peace back. We also all talk to her about everything. I don't think that there is anything that she doesn't know about me. So please pray that everything goes great.

Weekend

This weekend was great!!! I was able to go to my sisters Thursday-Monday and spend time with her my brother-in-law and best of all my niece. I post some pictures later. She really has developed a great personality; I can really see both Casey and Keith in her. She loves animals and reading books, I must have spent at least two hours each day just reading books to her. Some of them I read over and over and over.

I have a prayer request my Grandma is going to have open heat surgery to repair two of her valves in her heart. The reason that her valves are blocked is because about two years ago she had radiation for her breast cancer. It's funny how something that is done to help one thing can cause harm with another thing. I am not that nervous though because my grandma is not nervous at all she is so excited to have this surgery. She is happy because after she has healed completely from this surgery she should have a lot more energy. The surgery is Thursday morning at 5:00am. So for the next few days I will be helping my Aunt out at the Motel because my grandparents won’t be there. Wish me luck!!!

Gilmore Girls

I love Gilmore Girls, especially because I get to watch it every Tuesday night with my roommate and good friend Hillary. We are both so into the show that it is crazy, we have even both entered a contest to win a trip for two to the set. We promised that if either of us won we would take each other. So if you want you can pray that one of us wins!!! Just kidding but sending a little luck our way would be nice.

OK I have decided that I want to Marry a Luke as in Luke Gains from Gilmore what a perfect man. Affectionate, Funny and an outdoors man. Not to mention that he is Laid back, but at the same time he is set in his ways. He remembers the little things. A lot like my Dad.

I was raised to love sports, and for those of you that have had the pleasure of going to a MSU sporting event with me know that at time I can get a little involved in the games. I have been know to get loud (louder than I normally Am) , today was no exception, while watching the football game MSU v.s. Notre Dame is was all over the place. On the Picnic Tables, pacing in circles and in the last drive I was on the floor. In the end MSU came through with the win.

Long Time

I have been gone from this for a long time. This summer has been so busy that I am surprised that I even survived. I really haven't seen anyone this summer but hopefully with school starting and my schedule getting less busy, I will be able to see people more.

Today will be busy though I have to help my Aunt with My cousins, they need to be taken and picked up from sports. Since my Grandma and Grandpa are down in Ohio today she need help. So I offered. I love my cousins so it really wont be bad at all. Well it is getting close to that time where the picking up and dropping off begins so I got to get going.
