ok. a little bit of sleep has given me some perspective. first of all, the family reunion deal this weekend went pretty well (a couple of fights, but for once, none of it was about or involved me - i just got to watch :) - also, good times with the 3 youngest additions to the fam. Myles-2years, Macie -7months, and Aden - 7weeks). james and i made it up to wisconsin about 10pm on friday night and stayed up doing laundry. (woooo...exciting.... i know) the next morning the five of us drove a little over 2 hours to blue river. this is a tiny town in the hills of western wisconsin. it's BEAUTIFUL over there and we took the back roads (windy) which made it even better. anyways - dinner was at noon and we made it just in time. these family deals are known for having some sort of "mystery meat" for all who are daring (big hunters in the fam). well, this year it was black bear and it was great...along with all of the other great home-made sides and desserts. on to the big Bingo game / gift exchange (o we're sounding cool now) and finally, a trip over to Tim's house to see all of the various trophy kills (four basement walls filled - yeah....some call him a redneck hick...i call him "skilled" - hahaha) anyways, then my family and james went back to grandma's house to sit and talk and eat some more. we stayed until about 830 and then james and i left for my house. we decided that an 8 hour drive on sunday wasn't our idea of a good time...so we knocked off a few hours saturday night. sunday we went to church (2 weeks in a row at Saunder's Creek - good times) and left for g'ville after dinner. so, basically we had either been with family (a little tense because they love to fight) or in the car for the majority of the weekend. as we got closer to campus i was really starting to look forward to starting some homework and getting to bed early. instead, i walked in on a very unhappy apartment. evidently they had been fighting all weekend. in the end, one of my roommates threw a fit and took home ALL of her dishes and silverware, etc.... this is a big deal because that's the one thing she provided for all of us. so, empty cabinets. this was the start of the drama of last night. i had to go to the store and get some replacement stuff so the rest of us could eat until break. needless to say, i was NOT happy. there were more details and drama than just this...but this was the last straw. so, now no one is talking to each other....and if they do, it's just to cut them down. one roomie has taken to lying and trying to get people in trouble...just a lot of crap. o well...just two weeks til break and then a lot changes in the apt. as long as i get the work done for class, get practicum stuff going, decide about the new army deal, and keep my sanity at the same time...i guess i'll be doing alright. i'll let you know how that plan's going later....that's it for my complaint of the day i think :) ....it's gonna be a good day...ummm...starting in a little while...haha...
love, Jenn
