Feeling Crazy, But Blessed

Me and my CRAZY but cute brothers!
 Day 14 of Quarantine. I've literally driven myself crazy. I’ve just recently gotten the news that the earliest I will be going back to school  is April 20th. This to me is really weird. I miss my teacher and friends all ready, and now I have to wait maybe even longer than April 20th. This has been definitely the most crazy experience of my life, and I will never forget it. Even though this has been really hard, I can't help but realize how blessed I am. This pandemic could have been so much worse, not that it isn't horrible already. I have a loving family  who are taking the necessary precautions to keep us safe. I have the option to go outside, ride my bike, and hang out with my family. Speaking of family, here are a couple stories of things my little brothers have done this quarantined break: A couple of days ago, I was talking to my friend Lydia on the phone, because I hadn't seen her in a long time. My mom will usually tell me when it is time to get of the phone. I'm talking to Lydia, and I can hear my brothers outside the door being their wild crazy self's. As usual I tried to ignore them, but they kept saying that my mom needed me. So finally, I decided to get off the phone and see what my mom "needed" me to do. I get out there, and they are standing their laughing with the couch cushions set up as barricades. "Wow" I said to myself. I was tricked. So, I go back in there, recall my friend, and tried to ignore my brothers. Well, that is that. Here's the other story. We were outside in the front yard of our house, and we were playing with sidewalk chalk, (Well at least my brothers were,) Later that evening, my family and I decided to go on another walk around the neighborhood. We were about to exit the driveway when we realize that there is a drawing of an ugly yellow smiley face with a unibrow on the front of our house. We were laughing our heads off, trying to remind ourselves that this was NOT funny. Luckily the chalk came off and the house was its normal self again. Yup. That is my life currently. Sure, I might not be able to play with  my friends or go to school, but my family is really all I need, and I'm so glad I have a great one that cares about me and loves me. This has been a hard  and eye opening experience. My family has come closer together through this experience, and I am somewhat grateful that this is happening. I'm definitely not happy though I'll tell you that. Anyway, that's all for today. Let's see if I make it.

Weirdness

Hello, friends and family, and whoever else might be viewing this. I'm excited to start writing and expressing my feelings to you on this blog. Things I will be writing will include simple things that have happened during my day, and experiences throughout my life. I am starting this blog as an 11 year old girl who is sitting in her Fortress of Solitude(My House),while the world is on total lockdown during the Coronavirus pandemic. I am supposed to be at school right now, but the virus has shut down school, church, and any "non-life sustaining businesses." I have been extremely bored the past few days, and I'm starting to feel claustrophobic considering the fact that we are supposed to stay in our homes and "socially distance ourselves." So that is the main reason I started this blog. This is definitely an experience that I will remember for the rest of my life. I've tried entertaining myself by drawing, reading, playing outside, and currently this. My...

Easter, and Warm Lake!

April 12th was EASTER! I love Easter so much! My family and I had a great time last weekend, while still socially distancing. On Good Friday, my family joined in on the Global Fast for relief from the Coronavirus Pandemic. It was a great experience and I'm hoping that the Coronavirus calms down.  On the Saturday before Easter, we have "Easter Bunny Saturday" We got baskets from the "Easter Bunny" and did an egg hunt and dyed eggs. This Easter my family decided to plant a garden. We are starting off with strawberries, and have planted Mammoth Sunflowers that are just starting to sprout. On Easter Sunday, my family took it easy and went on a drive to Warm Lake just north of Cascade, Idaho. Even though no one was there, and Warm Lake was literally covered in ice, it was still a fun and great experience to get out into nature while being quarantined. We threw rocks onto the ice, walked down a road, had a picnic in my dad's truck bed, fed goldfish to a pretty bl...

My Mom

I hope everyone had an AWESOME Mothers Day. So today I'm going to talk about my mom and my Mothers Day. My mom is truly amazing. She is so kind and hardworking, and always perseveres even when times are hard. Especially in these times. My mom has taken on the responsibility of a teacher and has had to continue her normal duties at home, constantly helping us in our every need. Having to parent me and 3 wild boys. Making custom dinners for picky eaters. Cleaning and maintaining our home. Our mothers deserve our love and appreciation and I hope that you care for them not only on mothers day, but all of the time. I love my mom with all of my heart, and I hope you all do too. We had a fun mothers day at my house. We ate pie, magic cookie bars, and pie. We watched Season 18 of the voice. We did home church. It was a great mothers day, and I'm now looking forward to fathers day. Have a good week!
