Sleep Over


It's taken me an entire day to recuperate after the meet. God didn't forget me though. I prayed it would rain on Monday and it rained, but apparently I wasn't specific enough. It rained five minutes before the meet finished and it rained for a whole two minutes. Considering how hot it was out there, I was grateful for every drop.

There was one chunky girl who, with every dive, belly flopped and sprayed everyone around. I am not putting down the girl (I weigh more than she does) but every time it was her turn to swim I would run next to the pool hoping she hit the water hard enough that she would spray me as well. I swear I contemplated acting like I accidentally fell in and just tripping into the pool, but Jeneane would have been so embarrassed.

I went to my sister's house yesterday because Afif has wanted to spend the night there and I didn't know if he would last through the whole night. We had a great time and I even got to take a two hour hike with my sister and the dog. About an hour and a half after the hike it started to occur to me that she may not know the way home. I threatened to call mom and have her pick me up but I was too far away from any road. I was so happy when I finally saw a street until I realized how far we were from home. I should have tied my sister to a post but I'm too afraid of her so I just walked.

I spent the day getting ready for Osameh and Afif's Birthday. Osameh is a day before Afif and Afif is having a party on Saturday. I went all out and bought a cake which will be the envy of all five year old boys. I'm so excited, it feels like my birthday not his.
