Hey Killjoys,
Today is a day for both happiness and sadness for me. I'll begin with the sad. As the ones who have read the post I made after Spring Break last year know, we had to put our white as snow cat Anna Molly down. It was the worst Spring Break ever. My parents took her on March 13, at about 1:30 to get it done. My mom even TOLD me to call my best friend, who usually calls me before I call her.
Today is March 13, a year exactly since she left our lives. She was 17, so she had a good long life, but she was whiter than you could believe. Not a bit of cream in her. The only part of her that wasn't white were her eyes (green), ears and nose(pink). I still miss her greatly, and I always will.
The happy part is that I'm going up to the college library to help hang prom dresses for girls who sent in applications to receive one. It's for girls who couldn't afford to pay such a large amount for a dress, so they send in an application and get to pick a dress of their choice from the several hundred I will be assisting, along with my friend, in hanging on hangers for the girls to see. I'm happy to volunteer. Makes me feel like I'm picking my own dress again, which I bought on Super Bowl Sunday the year of mine.
My dad and I are looking after my paw paw while my uncle, aunt, mom and granny are at the family reunion. I never knew my other grandpa since he divorced my grandma long before my brothers and I were born, so we never went to any family reunions on that side. There's also no one my age to talk to, so I try to get out of going as often as possible.
One year we couldn't go because of weather- it was raining too much. Last year it was because of something else. My sixth grade year my mom and I didn't go because I had to practice my flute. I liked to not practice, so she kept me home and made me practice. There were a couple other instances, but they were longer ago.
Anyway, that's why it's both a happy and sad day.
Say it loud, proud and make some noise!
