Work or Play?

I love my job. I am a custodian. We dominate.

Here is our crew. We clean. Before we clean, we sleep.
We work from 4:00-7:30 in the morning.


Here is our boss...Brye. He's a happy guy.

I am on the Bathroom Crew. I love it.


Me and Shana...we were partners in the bathrooms. And then she got promoted. I miss her :(



Me and Aubrey... she's my new partner.

We look gorgeous at 4 in the morning.

Me and the Johnny Mop. This little guy works hard for the money.


This is what I scrub... toilets

...and urinals. Aubrey does the sinks.

We make a good team.

oh my stars!

Tonight I have decided... I absolutely love to look at the stars. They are so bright, wonderful, and endless. I want to get away from the city, escape the light pollution, go to the mountains, and sleep beneath these celestial beauties. I too often find myself just glimpsing at the stars, but I want to look at the night sky for hours and completely ponder life. Making time to appreciate the beauties of nature...especially the stars... is one of my new goals.

This better pay off when I'm older...

Recent and semi-recent experiences...
(listed in order of occurance)

Case #1:
I was at the self check out in the local grocery store. One of the employees (male teenager) comes up to me and says, "How did you get here?" (random...I know) I reply with, "I drove here." And then he says, "Wow, really? You look like you are in middle school." Well...thanks. I ended the conversation quickly after telling him that I just graduated from high school. I was probably older than him, too!

Case #2:
Sam, Riley, and I went to EFY and John Bytheway was one of the speakers there. After one of his classes, we went up to get a picture with him. I know... we're kinda pathetic. There was a small line, but we get up to him and we ask if we can get a picture with all of us, we explained that we were siblings. He of course consents, looks at us and says, "Are you triplets?" I told him that no, I was the oldest and we were all two years apart. I mean come on. Sam is 2 years younger and Riley is 4 years younger than me! How can we possibly all look the same age?

Case #3:
I was at Old Navy with my mom and I was trying on some clothes in the dressing room. I came out to get her opinion on a shirt and she was talking to this other mom that was waiting for her daughter. As I head back into the dressing room I hear the other mom ask my mom, "Is she going into high school?" And my mom laughs (like she always does) and says, "No, she's in her second year of college." Going into high school? Are we serious?

Case #4:
I was with Sam and Riley in a store and we were talking to this lady that was helping us at the check out counter. She asked Rye how old he was and he said he was 15, and then she asked me if I was born in between the two boys. After I told her no and that I was the oldest of the three of us, she tried to be reassuring and told us some story. I think it was about how someone had mistaken her son for her brother or something... I dont really remember... I was trying to figure out if Sam really looks older than me.

Conclusion:
Life is so hard.
Haha! :) Just kidding. But this whole age thing seems to happen to me all the time. Everyone keeps telling me that its a good thing and I hope they're right. But really, why do people think I am so young? Maybe its the way I act...hmmm... I don't think so though... I am way too mature and proper for that kind of misconception. I guess I just look young... I don't know what I can do about that, but hopefully, I will still look young when I'm not.

my family


My mom thought we needed to take a picture of the family today. It was quite an event. But here we all are... do you like how we are all the same height? We are small people.

Here are the parentals... how cute!

Here are the kids. We have fun... lots of fun.

I love 'em.
