Michelle!



Last weekend my sister, Michelle, came to visit. I'd forgotten how much I miss living 20 minutes from her until she came to stay with me. I picked her up from Reagan airport in DC on Thursday and after grabbing a quick bite to eat, we fought the traffic to get home.

Friday, I took her to Virginia Beach. After walking the shoreline collecting seashells for Brooklyn and writing in the sand, we found a place to sit and enjoy the ocean view and sun. I'm not really sure what happened next, because I fell asleep. I'm getting pretty good at falling asleep anytime, anywhere. Not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing.


Late afternoon we rented a two-seater bike and peddled our happy backsides down the length of the boardwalk and back. I figured it up; we probably walked about 3 miles and biked 5 that day. It seriously was exhausting, but fun.

Saturday we took a day of rest, sort of. We went out and bought me a crock pot and groceries and made a lot of food for me to freeze so that I can eat proper dinners now. It was Michelle's idea and it was a good one, cuz I've been eating like a queen every night this week. YUM!

On Sunday, I had to take Michelle back to DC, so we got up kind of early so we could see the city before her flight left. We walked the length of the National Mall, seeing the Capitol, Washington Monument, the White House and much, much more. The time with my sissy ended much too quickly but I'm so glad she came.



This week in school, we've been studying ammo; it's actually decently interesting. Tomorrow I'm going to DC again with a group to see the MLK Jr Monument and whatever else they have planned. And that brings you up to speed with me. So what's new with you?
