Sunday, Monday, Tuesday

Sunday
Originally we were planning to go to church this morning but Mom decided she didn't want to go.  Esther needed to go to the mall to get some birthday presents for her friends.  I went to Hot Topic to get a record.  I also asked what age they usually hire.  They said they hire at 16.  I am going to apply next summer for a job there.  I think it would be a lot of fun to work there.  It took Esther a long time to decide what to get so we were at the mall a lot longer then we should of been.  Luckily we didn't have much planned for the rest of the day.  Tomorrow I am going to Guitar Center with my friends Jake and Chase to get the rest of the stuff we need to record.  I think that will be fun.  I have to finish my summer assignments before I leave for California on Thursday.  I still have a lot to do.  I have to finish my math packet and start on my English assignment.  I will probably put it off till Wednesday though  because I am such a procrastinator.  I have started packing for California already though.  I have started watching a new TV show and it is very good.  It is called Supernatural.
Monday
Today Jake and Chase came over at ten forty five.  We went to Guitar Center to get the stuff we need to record.  We got drum microphones, a mixer, and a bunch of cables we needed to get all of them to work.  Next we went to Chase's house to set everything up.  We got everything set up within a half an hour or so.  It is still going to take Chase a while to figure everything out.  Then we walked to Taco Bell to get some lunch.  I had a piano lesson today too.  At one forty Mom came to pick me up from Chase's so I could be home in time for the piano lesson.  It went pretty well.  We are still working on the Moonlight Sonata.  I am almost done with the first movement completely.  We are planning on starting the second movement on my next lesson.  That will be a while from now though.  We will be out of town for 2 and a half weeks or so.  Other then that the day was pretty boring.  I watched supernatural for the rest of the day.  It is a very good show about who brothers who are demon hunters.  Tomorrow I am hanging out with a friend all morning.  I haven't seen her in quite a while.
Tuesday
Today I went to the mall first thing in the morning.  I needed to get my friend a birthday present because her birthday is Thursday.  That is the day I leave for California though.  She invited me over to hang out today because I wouldn't be there on her birthday.  She really liked her present.  We hung out from eleven till about two.  After Mom picked me up we went to the grocery store.  Mom needed some stuff for the dinner she was making tonight.  Esther and I got lunch there.  After we were all done at the grocery store we went home.  Esther and I played some video games before she stopped to start cleaning the car.  I came up stairs and watched another episode of supernatural.  Just after the episode was over we had to leave because I had a haircut.  I just got a touch up on it.  I got the sides shaved a little shorter and got the top textured a little bit more so that it was easier to gel.  Then when I got home I said hi to sandy.   Then I got ready to catch up on my blogs.  Tomorrow I am going to take my permit test to get my learners permit.  I am kind of scared to drive though.

saturday

Today we went to see a movie as a family.  We saw the movie The Way Way Back.  It was filmed on Cape Cod.  I think that is so cool! The plot of the movie is there is a family who kinda dysfunctional.  The kid is very socially awkward and doesn't fit in with his family.  His step dad is very mean to him.  He finds a mentor of sorts.  He is the manager at Water Wizz.  It is one of my new favorite movies.  It was so good.  After the movie was over we went out to lunch.  After much debate on where to eat we finally decided on Noodles & Company.  After we ate we headed home.  Later that day we went to the grocery store to get stuff for dinner and dessert.  We made homemade milkshakes.  They turned out surprisingly well.  Tomorrow I don't think we are doing much.  I am planning on getting my learners permit at some point this week but I leave for California on Thursday.  I am very excited to go to California!  I think it will be so much fun.  I haven't been in 4 years or so.  It will be nice to see grandma and grandpa Eilers again.  I don't know what all I will be doing but I bet it will be fun.

friday

This morning Janet came to help Mom clean the house.  She showed up a little late but she was done by eleven thirty or so.  After she finished it was just about time for Mom to leave for her haircut.  Before she left we went to get some pizza.  They had a lunch special where you got two slices of pizza and a fountain drink.  I got a slice with ricotta on it and a slice with black olives.  Mom also got a slice of ricotta but she got a slice of pepperoni for Esther when she got home from camp.  It was her last day of camp.  They had a big party all day.  Esther was all hyped up on sugar when she got home. Before long she crashed and was pretty grumpy for the rest of the day.  Tomorrow we are going to see a movie as a family.  It is called The Way Way Back,  It was filmed in Falmouth! I think it is very cool.  We are going to a new movie theater. It seems like it will be all preppy and stuff.  I don't have many other plans for the weekend.  On Monday I am hanging out with the band to get the rest of the stuff we need to record.  My friends birthday is on Thursday but that is the day I leave for California.  I will probably hang out with them the day before to give them their present.

Thursday

Today Esther had her show.  It started at one forty five.  It was okay.  There were some really good bits but a lot of it was very boring.  They tried to do a commentary on how technology has taken over our lives but it ended up being a little preachy.  There was a really good bit where two of the actors broke the fourth wall.  It was by far the longest stage door I have ever seen.  It was over two hours long.  I think next year they should keep it a little shorter.  After it was over Esther wanted to go to dairy queen to celebrate.   A bunch of Esther's friends who went to go see the show went too.  I saw one of my friends there.  It was blizard day at dairy queen.  They donated half the money they made from blizzards to charity that day.  Tomorrow is Esther's last day of camp is tomorrow.  They just have a big party all day.  Esther is very excited for it.  I studied for my drivers test for the rest of the day.  I am planning to go take the test on Monday I hope I pass it.  The DMV is at the mall so Esther is excited to go too.  I am nervous though.  All my friends who have taken it said it was pretty easy though.

wednesday

Today Esther stayed home from camp.  She wasn't feeling well.  She was really congested.  She is enjoying the camp a lot though.  Esther and I starting playing a game of Monopoly but we never finished it.  We also got out the bread machine from downstairs.  We tried making yogurt bread but Esther put in to much salt so the bread didn't rise enough and it was really salty.  Before we made the bread we went to the store to get the materials we needed.  Tomorrow me and Mom are planning to try again.  Hopefully the next on comes out better.  It is really easy to make the bread.  Esther's play is tomorrow.  Mom and I are going to see it.  Ms. Hard says it is the longest play shes ever done with this camp.  Esther says it is almost two hours long.  Hopefully it isn't too boring.  Usually the play's stage door does are fairly boring unfortunately.  I don't have many plans this week or next week.  I leave for California for two weeks in another week or so.  I am excited to go on a vacation.  It will be my first all summer.  The summer has been pretty boring so far.  I only have a couple weeks left before I head back to school.
