Posted By Rebekah
| Guess what guys? We got a kitten!!!! Her name is Thomasina, and we got her from Caring for Creatures, the place where Rachel volenteers. She is four months old, and her fur is light brown, with dark brown stripes and spots. Like a leoperd. Once I get some pictures of her, I'll put them up! |

• Wednesday, January 7, 2009 - News about the kitten.
Posted By Rachel
Okay, as you all know (Or all should know) we are getting a kitten. Actually...
we have a kitten!!!!!!!!!!!
Its so exciting! We got the small tabby, and her name in Thomasina. She is small and brown with black stripes. She hates to be alone, and loves to play.
We have two very angry kitty's on our hands, though. Daisy has gone into hiding, and Johnny gets this look whenever she is around him. Because of that, Thomasina spends most of her time in my room. We put food, water, and a litter box in there-she has even found toy mouse and a feather that is now a mangled feather. She is the sweetest thing-licking us, nudging us to pet her, even curling up next to my last night!
I wish I could find some pictures, but Sarah's pictures don't have Thomasina up yet, and I don't know how to get onto Mom's photobucket thingy. Well...I will put up a picture of Thomas, since he looks like Thomasina.
 Cheerio!

• January 5, 2009 - Happy New Year
Posted By Makayla
First of all I just want to say HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!!!! Can you believe it is 2009? I don't know about you guys, but for me 2008 went by very fast. Did any of you guys do anything fun for New Year's Eve? My friend Sierra came over for New Year's Eve and she spent the night! We stayed up and watched movies till 3:00am! The movies we watched were The Dark Night, An American Carol, and The World Is Not Enough (an old James Bond movie).
The Dark Night was pretty good. It had some very interesting characters, the joker being the most interesting. The movie proved some pretty good points! I'm not going to give them away, you will just have to watch the movie and find out what the points are. Overall I liked the movie and I would recommend it to teenagers and adults! I would not recommend it to children under 10 or 11 due to some of the gruesome parts of the movie. I would totally recommend you to read the overall review, click on the link and it will take you to the review of The Dark Night: The Link to the review of The Dark Night
An American Carol was awesome! It was so funny and I just loved it! The liberals got a taste of their own medicine with this movie! I recommend it to people that are interested in politics and people that want to have a good laugh! I recommend you to read the overall review to this movie, click on the link and you will be able to read the review of An American Carol: The link to the review of An American Carol
The World Is Not Enough is an older James Bond movie starring Peirce Bronson as James Bond. I love the James Bond movies and this one was pretty good! It was kind of funny seeing Peirce Bronson in Mama Mia and then in James Bond, it is a drastic change in character. If you like James Bond then I'm sure you would like this movie!
Well, that was my New Year's Eve!
I almost forgot to tell you guys that one of my family's Christmas presents this year was......A NEW PUPPY!!!!! He is so cute, he is 9 weeks old now and he is a beagle! We named him Copper! I took a bunch of pictures of him and I will post the pictures on here when I get them loaded up to my mom's computer!
Okay, for my next post I wanted to do something special! I need some ideas from you guys! Would you like to me to do a post of pictures, reviews on CDs, reviews on Movies, politics, etc! Let me know in a comment or a message!
Have a great week!
~Makayla~ |

• Jan. 5, 2009 - Chapter 1
Posted By Raina
Chapter 1
Britt wasn’t your ordinary shoe maker. Especially for one living in small-town Montana; since the population was only a little over 2,000. It was one of the smallest towns in Montana barring ghost towns; Malta, Montana. Like most people yearning the small-town life he had a past. But it was littered with wet laundry that only he knew about. Fall was in the air, and it was crisp and fresh to his nose. He ran his fingers through his dark brown hair and through the sheets back off the bed. Most shoe makers lived in a house that was outside town, but Britt had picked his house special.
It was right inside the shoe store, so it was an easy commute. It would boggle your mind how much the people of Malta needed him, especially how many shoes they would by in a week. He had bought the small warehouse only three years ago in hopes that many travelers would need to get shoes on their way through onto US Highway 2 or US Highway 192. The minute he had stocked his shelves and opened his doors people flooded in from everywhere; direct from town and out. He had almost closed down the first day because of so much business. He had thought that because of this the business would die down and he would have to close, or it would continue on at a snails pace until the next fresh wave of newcomers.
“Boy was I wrong,” Britt said with a chuckle as he reflected on that day, “I’m glad I didn’t close down!” He reached for his pants and shirt that lay on the chair at the desk and then walked to his dresser. He grabbed a fresh pair of boxers and went to take a shower. The set he bought almost a week after opening was still shining like new. That was partly because he cleaned it every time he wasn’t making shoes, taking orders down or helping customers.
Britt turned on the old radio that hung next to the door in his bathroom and undressed. He stepped into the shower and listened to the weather that was going over. “And there will be a strong chance for showers in the next few days, so be prepared to cancel all outdoor plans this week. Now back to your regularly scheduled programs.” The soft music of Glenn Miller drifted over the sound of the running water and made Britt dance slowly in the shower for a second. Most could call him weird or nostalgic for liking this kind of music, but he didn’t care. He loved it. Always had and he always would.
He heard the phone ringing in his bedroom and shut off the water. In as much haste as he safely could he jumped out of the shower and grabbed a towel, racing to the phone. “The Shoe Surplus, how can I help you,” Britt said in a relatively professional voice. He hadn’t been a shoe salesman this long for nothing. “Yes,” a soft and sweet voice drifted over the phone, “you can tell me where you are. I’ve been looking all over for you.” He knew that voice. “Is that you Gwen?”
“Well it certainly isn’t Hillary Clinton!” she retorted. Britt gave a laugh and said, “Well, I’m sure you’ll find it soon enough. It’s the only shoe store in town. By the way, where are you?” There was a small suppressed giggle on the other end and then Gwen answered, “Right outside your front door!” The blood dropped from Britt’s face. He didn’t know she was THAT close. He dried off the rest of the way as best as he could and threw on the old ripped jeans of his and a black t-shirt and rushed down the stairs.
A horn honked twice and he realized that it indeed was Gwen, waiting out in that old hotrod she had gotten back on graduation day. Ah yes, so many years ago that was, but at times like this it made Britt even more nostalgic than ever. He could see the door of that old roadster open as Gwen stepped out. She looked much older; professional some might call it, than Britt remembered. Her hair was slicked back into a plain, shoulder length cut and she had a business suit on. But other than her air she looked no different than the day he left Billings. She begged him to let her come with him, but he foolishly said no and had regretted it ever since.
Her cool brown hair bounced as she came to the door, and he stared mystically into those hazel blue eyes once again. Coming back to his senses he opened the door for her and said, “Well look at you!” Gwen didn’t hesitate and jumped into his arms and gave him a big bear hug, lifting him several inches off the ground. Ordinarily any other man might have been surprised, but not Britt. It would have been truly remarkable to a bystander, but Gwen is one who possesses a deceptively large amount of upper body strength.
“How are you Gwen?” he asked as she put him back on his feet. She smiled widely at him and said, “Fantastic now that I’ve made it here! And I’m quite surprised you’re in shoes now, coal doesn’t suit you?” Britt laughed and said sarcastically, “Very funny Gwen! What brings you out all this way?” Walking in she turned back and said, “I’m here to see you! Well, of course I do have some other business in town, but I decided to see you first.” Britt accepted that explanation and asked politely, “Are you hungry? I can take you to breakfast.”
Gwen patted her stomach, “Breakfast would do. I drove all night to get here.” Taking that note he ran upstairs, grabbed a light coat and raced back down. “Shall we walk?” Britt asked, offering his arm to Gwen. “Let’s” she said as she smiled at him. Britt locked the door behind them and they went to the local eatery called “The Charcoal Grill” and entered, arms still locked. Aunt June, or so everyone affectionately called her, stepped up to “the pulpit” and asked, “Table for two?” Britt said yes and they walked behind Aunt June and took their seats. What a lot they had to talk about, and talk they would, for it seemed that Gwen had nowhere to go for a while.

• Jan. 4, 2009 - School is back.
Posted By Rebekah
Hello Everybody. I'm sitting here, trying to think of how best to clean my room. Yes, I am STILL cleaning my room! I started when I woke up, and I'm still cleaning. I decited that in certain subjects of life, I am a procrastinator. Cleaning my room, is one of those certain subjects. I'm listening to High School Musical 3, I've been listening to it over and over, trying to memorize as quickly as I can. Make of that what you wish. :-) And I am also chewing on some clemetines, and right now I just found a seed. Yuck. Anyway! I am clearing off the top of my bookshelf trying to decide what to do with it. I think I would like to have a certain space to do mmy hair, but for that I would need a desk with a mirror in the back so I can see what I'm doing all the time. Oh well. I'll just try to make do with what I have. I'm also re-reading the Eragon book Brisingr, and thats part of whats disracting me from cleaning my room. :-/
Oh yeah, something went wrong with my computer; the charger wasn't really working when I plugged it in. So daddy lent me has spare charger, I hope I can use it when I do my schoolwork tomorrow. I really cannot miss Math or French now. But I can't wait to get back to ballet! I really need to get some ballet photos for audition forms.
Actually, I should probably get back to cleaning my room. So, I'll sign off now! |
