Going Back

As you know already, I moved here two years ago, which is a long time. in one week I have to go back to Illinois for my oldest sisters graduation from college, but my little sister and I don't want to go to the actual graduation ceremony. Instead, we get to stay with our old neighbors which are our best friends. It will be fun to hang out with them for a week. Though it will be weird, too because some one else will be living in my old house that I lived in for almost nine years. I am so excited because I might even get to go to school with my best friend as a visitor and see everyone that I used to go to school with. I am curious to see if people remember me or not. If they do I can't wait to see their facial expressions. We are going to have so much fun at our two year reunion.

Last Minute Touchups

Last weekend I went across to the Ace that my family is opening in Mukilteo. We went there to do any last minute touch-ups. First, my dad and I set up the grills and outdoor stuff. Then my sister and I whiped dust off of everything. Next we had to clean the bottom of the shelfs. I didn't like getting on my hands and knees, so I remembered we had the store carts for moving the merchandise around. They are about five inches off the ground which was perfect. We layed on our stomachs and rolled around to whipe off the bottom of the shelfs. It was a lot faster, more efficient and more fun. We were done cleaning the store in about an hour on the carts. Then we moved on to putting up the prices. On monday the Ace opened and there were about fifty five people even before lunch and ithas almost been that way all week. It's pretty exciting.
