Family Time Weekend Recap
Happy Monday all! I hope y'all aren't melting in the heat because it is MISERABLE! Today we are going to apparently break records from the heat and be at 100 with heat index way higher. Yay. This will be me for the next week: source We went to my second cousin's graduation party. I purposely wanted to arrive about 45 minutes later than the start time. You don't want to get wrangled into setting up, babysitting, etc and that happened to people arriving earlier from what I heard so smart call on my part. Also everyone is always chit chatting and we knew if there would be food it would be about the time they'd be eating...right again. We already ate so we were good to go and then shocked the sh*t out my family when we walked in. Final goal: ✔ The grad immediately popped up and came over to hug us and be a good hostess which was so cute. She's always been a very sweet kid but also a little badass. She was the only wrest...
I believe I was 8 or 9 years old out in California at Knott's Berry Farm and enjoying those cars that you "drive" (open, old fashioned-looking cars).

To this day I can remember feeling so deflated when I realized the car was on a track, that I sat there slumped in the driver's seat and didn't even keep my hands on the wheel at that point. It ruined my whole day after that.
ReplyDeleteI used to listen to this one DJ as a kid, I was maybe 7 or 8, and I had a small radio that had a speaker that sometimes would go bad at the most inopportune times. One day out of the blue I decided to just take the thing apart and see if I could fix it. I didn't fix it... but I also didn't totally break it. I put it all back together and it still worked, I just didn't know that the speaker needed a new solder and I was too young to realize that yet. But what I did realize was that I was not afraid to jump into anything electronic and see what I could do with it. That serves me well to this day.
