Today was what we call a sleep in day. First, let me just say that we don't get those around here very often so when we do, man is it great. Oh, I guess I better let you know what that means on the farm. All a sleep in day means is that we don't set any alarms and we get up when we wake up. Around here that means about 7am. I know that isn't sleeping in to most but when Dad gets up at 3am and everyone else is up at 5am ... 7am is sleeping in.
Anyway, After that I got my birds entered in the Tulsa State Fair. It takes a bit of doing to enter as a Junior because you have to have the Extention Agent enter you and that means taking all your paperwork to his office and you and him going over everything and putting it all in the computer. While in town we tried to go pick up our feed but it wasn't ready because they made another Christy's feed and not Christy as in Mom. That means we had to come back later.
After we got home we serviced the Air Conditioner because it was acting up and cleaned all the rabbit pens. Then Mom mowed and weedeated the yard. While I roped in the holding pen because the Arena was to wet. Dad headed back to town to get the feed. To be honest it was a "busy day doing a whole lot of nothing much".
Now, because there really isn't much going on besides everyday life, I am going to address one issue that was brought to my attention that I just haven't figured out how to work in on the blog since it was brought up. (Yes, It kind of made me mad so I am trying to figure out a nice way to deal with it. Mom calls it stewing ... I call it thinking... LOL) The issue is the imperfections in my blog. Mom told me that someone had let her know that I "need to use the spell check" on my blog posts. Her and I laughed it off and went on but the more I think about it the more I get a tad bit upset. Let me explain. I am sorry that my blog isn't perfect but as most of my readers know I am homeschooled. This blog works as a journal and can be counted as part of my english class. If I were in a normal school I would be writting it in a notebook and notebooks don't have spell check. So if I use spell check on my blog posts isn't that a form of cheating? I will say that I really am sorry for not having everything perfect when I post but to be honest I really didn't know that my readers where judging me by my mistakes in the blog. Yes, I am kind of offended although Mom says I shouldn't be. I just always thought that this blog was read just for enjoyment and to see what was going on around the farm. I never thought I would be judged for my faults. Anyway, I just wanted everyone to know that I do try to get better at having everything perfect before I post but on the other hand I am not perfect nor will I ever be. I am who I am and I am sorry if my mistakes on the blog make someone stop reading or judge me.
