There is a big steamroller parked in my driveway right now. They were paving the road today, and used the driveway as a parking lot. I don't mind. After all, if it makes the road better, then it's worth the grass being squished for a little while. I am just glad that my sister wasn't here. Last year when they used the driveway, she flipped out on them for not asking permission. Anyway, it's funny because the driver left the flashing lights on when he left. I didn't notice because our wood ...

My sister's girlfriend had to put her dog to sleep this morning.

Bennett was an incredible soul - not a mean bone in his body and always happy, ready to play. After I had Parker, he was so gentle with her and of course, he absolutely -loved- to go on walks with me. He kinda learned our schedule and when it was time for us to go for our walk, he'd bark and scratch at the door going to my sister's garage and would wiggle himself into his ...

When I woke up this morning, I seriously debated on actually going to Sinking Spring and delivering the newspapers. The sky looked ominous and I didn't want to get caught in a storm. So I figured I'd instead go at 10am instead of the usual 8am. While I was watching the latest EYK live chat, Dad came over and offered to take me to Sinking Spring.

It wasn't that bad this morning - only a couple of places on my arms, but it's been spreading at a steady pace all day. My hands are now so swollen and red, I can't put my fingers together, my forearms are each just one huge pink puffy itchy mess. It was splotchy, but now it just -looks- like they're pink and that's normal. There's no white left.

There's ...

I woke up feeling good about the day. I felt refreshed and not tired at all. When I left the house at 8am, I was feeling as if it was going to be a good day.

But then it got hot. And folding the papers was taking a lot longer to fold than expected. It was after 10am when I finally got enough folded to actually deliver them. I worked as fast as I could, but I wasn't finished until 2pm.

Grandma wasn't home when I arrived at her house. So, I left her a paper in her ...
