Ok, sorry I haven't posted in a while. I was on a camping trip. here is what happened on the way Home from Lake Tahoe. (this is an article in the Newspaper. I replaced names with the CAPS, I don't feel comfortable publishing any names on the Internet.)
"Penn Valley resident DADDY said he's been to war in Afghanistan, but never seen anything so scary as watching his two daughters get in a car crash.
The FAMILY were driving westbound on Highway 20 Saturday around 2 p.m., making their way home from a family camping trip. The parents drove the lead car, and the daughters followed behind in a second car.
Reno resident Mr. UNKNOWN, 19, was driving a 1998 Chevy Suburban when he pulled to the shoulder, letting the parents pass. He then pulled back into the road, trying to make a U-turn just west of Nevada Street, said California Highway Patrol Sgt. Dee Lavrador.
SISTER, broadsided the Suburban as it turned in front of her. Her BLANK-year-old sister, ME, was in the passenger seat beside her and was airlifted to Sutter Roseville Medical Center with pain to the stomach.
SISTER was taken to Sierra Nevada Memorial Hospital, where she was treated and released. Her sister BLANK was treated and released from Sutter; she had bumps and bruises but no internal injuries.
Neither UNKNOWN nor his four adult passengers were injured, although UNKNOWN “was shook up and felt terrible,” DADDY said.
While the car was totaled, DADDY said his family was doing “reasonably well” after the accident. He heaped praise on rescuers, who were “beyond gracious” to his family and helped calm down the worried parents."

Day 40
40 days... wow! and they are huge!!!
well, not much to report on the ducks... again! :) sorry! but, they are doing great. they don't look much bigger than yesterday!
I am still wondering... what do we do with them when they are "all grown up"??
I should stick to the saying "we'll cross that bridge when we get there" it helps... we always worry about the future WAY to much! why don't we just put it into God's hands?? it's easy saying that, but to really do that. it SOUNDS easy, but we (people) want to control everything! even though we know that we can't!!!
Kitten:
he ran around my room for about 30 minutes, which came to a quick hault when he decided to get on the bottom shelf of my book shelf in my room and go to the bathroom.
:( UGH! I thought he was doing so great too!!! oh well.. he is still a kitten. I picked him up, put him in the litter box and then into his carrier. he wasn't to happy with me about that one! but... oh well!
alrighty, this HAS to be short. I need to find a place to sleep.... my bed is covered with clothes I am taking with me.... now.... where to put those clothes, I have NO CLUE... or.... the question is Where to put me! :)
please pray for my dad, he was sick all last night and most of the day. and also, please pray that the rest of my family and I don't get it! not cool.
OH! one more prayer request: please pray that everyone will have safe travels. PLEASE and a safe trip, all around. and that they have fun!
God Bless!

Day 39
ok! so today was interesting!
Awesome church service though!! talking about treating people right. I can't do it justice!
Ducks: they survived the first night in their new coop! :) they seem to be loving it! YAY! it got pretty hot today so I kinda sprinkled them with water while filling their "bowl" thing!
then they were fine! I can't wait til they have a gender!!! (or til I can tell what gender they are!)
not much to report. I still need to post pictures, I am gonna try to do that tomorrow.
I will be offline for about a week! so I will not be posting anything, starting.... tuesday!
Kitten:
ran around the bathroom all day! he will hopefully have a vet appointment soon, just a follow up, see how he is doing. which I am sure he is fine! very active, he has a little kitty belly!! :)
almost done with the oral medication. I should write down what he is taking.... ask the vet about it.
alrighty... well. Kitty is now sleeping, after a long hard day of playing!
Good Night ya'll!
God Bless!!!

Day 38
Awesome day! pretty hot though. thank goodness for good friends and a river! :)
ok, have to cut this short.
Ducks: they are in their new duck coop! they absoloutly love it out there! I am a bit nervous about the first night out there. but... I pray they will be fine!
they are getting bigger and bigger and I am growing more anxious to find out if they are make or female.... they are 45 days old.
One thing I know about the ducks... they are either REALLY stupid, or brave. we were letting all our dogs sniff them, through the coop. and through the chicken wire the ducks pecked the dog's snout! it was pretty funny!!! the dog's looked at them with their heads cocked to the side! :)
Kitten: Still has no name! :) but hopefully he will have a name soon!
he is all hyper right now. I went to go lock him up in his little kitty carrier for the night and I set him in there and when I pulled my hand out he grabbed it and wouldn't let go. and then I put him back, and this time he ran out before I had time to pull my hand out. and ran into my room again!
pretty dang cute!
alrighty!
Good night. I hope ya'll are having a wonderful weekend!
God Bless!

Day 37
today was pretty good!
I got up, around 8:00 a.m and realized that hiccups are annoying!
long story short... i cleaned up the house for the potluck.
and did some algebra.... YUCK! but, oh well it will defiently help with Chemistry.
the ducks.... they are doing great! I took them out of the bathtub because I was tired of the stench! :P and tore up a paper bag and put the shavings that were left over.
and again I don't have much to say.
but Kitten is doing great, more playful everyday. still unnamed, so for now, Baby Boy is what everyone seems to be calling him!
B.B. is REALLY fast, I found that out the hard way, I was getting a towel for the bathroom that he is in, and I leave the door cracked, and when I opened it fully he ran in between my legs, into my room and tried going out my sliding door, soon finding out that the screen on said door was closed! and it wasn't going anywhere! so he shook his head and looked at me like "ok... ready to go back!"
alrighty... I am gonna go.
I should go to bed I am going to "my little sisters" birthday party!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!
(I won't say you name, but you know who you are!) You are such an amazing young lady!!!!!!
God Bless!

Day 35
Well, I am a bit late posting for day 35... but here it is!
ok, so you gotta love Summer, you go to bed REALLY late, or early the next day and then you get to sleep into the afternoon! :)
the ducks are now outta shavings. :P UGH! hate that! we need to go buy more, but I doubt the Feed Store is open this early in the morning. so they spent the night in the bathtub! but, not in the water! so, the tub will need a REALLY good scrub down today!
Dad and I are working on the Duck coop, it literally looks like a giant Bird house. my dad is amazing! if you could see all the things he has built, WOW!
not much happened with the ducks yesterday,
because B.C. (Barnabas Charlie, temporary name. Charlie because of the video "Charlie Bit Me)
Back on track, B.C. had a Vet appointment. his tail does need amputated, his ears are looking much better. but, the vet said that he might, big might have ring worm! :P so we have some medicine for that. he lost a couple claws on his back paws, the vet said they were dying so they were bound to come out. and then his front paw is looking good. it will still take a while to heal totally, but it's healing nicely! so thats good news!
Poor guy, he has to have ear drops, oral medicine, "lotion" and then blue stuff that help his wounds heal!
he could use some more prayer!
and I will try to post about today as well... but later tonight seeing as it's only 6am
God Bless!!

Day 34
ok, so I need to post more!!!
I hope ya'll are having an amazing Summer!! mine has been pretty amazing!
let's see.... 4th of July!!! such a great day, We spent the day with amazing friends, playing games, and laughing until we fall out of chairs! ;)
then I got to go down to Monterey CA. and spent a week with my Amazing friend Aurora, and her amazing family!!! Such great people! if you don't know them, you are missing out! :)
well... the ducks... are HUGE! when I left they barely had any feathers, or brown! well, all that changed! they now have brown and white feathers, it's like they can't decide what color they are going to be, I still have alot more research to do!
I keep going to look something up, and then forget what it was I was going to look up! I hate it, I need to write all them down!
anywho! the ducks are now 41 days old! dang!!! I have only had them 34 days!
if ya think of a question for me to look up I would love to look it up and then post about it! I am defiently curious! I think it's time to go to the library! :) gotta love it!
ok, update on kitten,
he is doing great, running around the bathroom, and occasionally in our back room. he loves the toilet paper roll... and the thing inside the roll... what is that called anyways?!?!? you know, the cardboard roll, beats me! :)
anyways, he took ALL the toilet paper off of the cardboard and was sitting in the middle of the mound of white when I walked in, and he gave me that look, you know the one where "nobody did it" or it was "that other guy, he was here a minute ago"
so, naturally I snapped a picture! haha!
ok, well.. here is something you don't hear everyday, as I think I told you, the cats tail was broken... well, now it is broken off!!! :P BLAK!
I picked him up and realized I had a spot of blood on my arm so I thought I hurt myself... again. but then another was on my shirt, it was like a horror film (in my head anyways!) and I look down and his tail, about 2 inches had fallen off! ya, OFF! and I was kinda surprised, I was wondering where the other piece was, and among many other thoughts that video clip "blood" popped into my head the little boy is saying "not funny!" and that was in my head! (ya... I know... kinda wrong!)
so mom and I look around the floor and see this little piece of tail! again BLAH!!!!!
then there was the process of wrapping this tiny tail in gauze and put some anti-pain, infection cream on it, and now he is asleep in the bathroom, with this little wrapped tail! poor guy!!!
anywho... now the ducks are technically 42 days old...
there is so much more to say... but I am exhausted!!!
God Bless!!
Good Morning!
"Good Mornin' to you
Good Mornin', Good Mornin'
It's great to stay Up late

Day 23
Today started out at 8:00. not the best time to start your summer Fridays... but oh well!
first, at 9:00 a.m. dad and I headed out to the ranch. giving our horse 100 pills!!
such an annoyin' process! gotta grind the pills, mix with molasses! BLAK! it smells horrid! but, Boomer is worth it!
then, from 10-12:30 I cleaned my neighbors house.
ok... then from 12:30 my parents and I did yard work. we have to big gardens, that ever since we moved in have been, well.. ugly, and just a plain pain to take care of!
we finally got it all spiffied up! I will take pictures sometime! and post them!
Ducks:
they had their first 'swim' today! they still don't have all their feathers yet, so they can still drown. but I think since Mother ducks take their ducks in ponds for a small swim, I should let them try it. (mother ducks time their ducklings, so they won't drown)
so I only filled the tub with a little water, enough to get their bellies, but not enough to drown them! they loved it!
I could see God's amazing design, they immedietly tried swimming, but failing because of how shallow the water was! then when I took them out, I swear they looked at me like how I looked at my mom when we were at the pool and she said "let's go" and I always wanted One more time on the slide that I thought was os scary at the time! :)
but I towel dried them! they are no longer 'real' ducks! they are pampered! hehe!
well. I need to go to bed!
Night!
God Bless!

Day 22
Today started off, slow....
we have small group on Thursday nights, so we have to get the house clean! but anywho!
while I clean house, I ususally turn on music (only when people are gone!) and dance! and sing... which honestly I am Horrible at, but I love singing and dancing, especially when it is just me, God, and some Christian music. it always makes me happy!
but, today seemed different, I broke a glass vase, I kept hitting my head (not because of the bad dancing.. or singing) but just random PAINFUL things would happen, and then sad songs would come on, and it was that kind of day where I couldn't listen to the radio, sad songs kept coming on, romantic songs... which they never make me sad... but today they were REALLY sad! I am such a girl... hehe!
Ducks:
well, after bible study. I got to bring the ducks down, and they are still hesitant about the stairs, after the tumble they took because they got WAY to excited! haha!
but they were so calm, of they got freaked out they would waddle towards me, but then they would toughen up and go baxk out into the crowd of amazing people! they are like family now!
but then I grabbed one of the ducks to see if they were ok on their backs, and he was laying in my lap, on his back, just relaxed! it was awesome! and pretty cute. and then the other one was laying on my upper lap... and when I put my hands over the one on his back, my hands were cupped over him, and the other one climbed up on my hand! it looked like a reflection! it was sweet! they are so hot! it is insane!
Kitten:
doing awesome! (gotta cut this short, it is 11:30!)
he is playing... we are pretty sure he has an infection in his ear! :(
then his paws.. all of them are burned.. trying to heal, but one looks like he stepped on a hot rock or something, because there is.. like a hole, a dent in his pad. and the dent is the part that is burnt! it's really sad!!! then I changed his bandage today, I think we need to take him to see a vet tomorrow, I think it's too late for stitched but idk what to do about the torn paw, it is still sorta kinda bleeding! :(
but thankfully he is recovering!
night! I am EXHAUSTED!!!!! must of been all that dancing!!!
isn't God SO amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!
God Bless!!!!
