I am beginning to put in paragraph tags into my posts that way everything is not shoved together in one long paragraph that is hard to decipher. I hope that my brother Daniel will enjoy this new accomplishment all though it isn’t very new.

Libraries

All though this is completely unrelated to the subject I had forgotten how to spell the word “Library” and “Forgotten” I am very glad that spellcheck has been invented or else this post would look very different.

Be that as it may, I went to a library today. It has been years or a very long time since I was last at one and it was exciting to be going to one again(Eowyn is still acting up, I need to get a new hard drive…) My Mom and I had just been to a book store where she had been looking at books, and some books are rather expensive, especially a very large book about all of the dresses that Jacqueline Kennedy wore. Or not about all of her dresses but most of them. So we went to the library to see if they had that book so my Mom(and me) could peruse it at our leisure. But they didn’t have the book, or many other books that we were looking for, but they did have an interesting book that had Peanuts comics. I went to look at there books on fashion to get some sewing ideas and quickly decided that if I wanted sewing ideas I should look elsewhere. Mainly because I like dresses that are really beautiful and some what different than what ladies actually wore. Which means that faerie tale books and movies are a much better source of sewing ideas. I checked out one video and although it wasn’t much good as a movie the dresses were beautiful. I will probably end up sewing something like one of them soon.

AND it is just 8 days until my birthday. I am looking forward to it, I was hoping for a cruise but that was rather doubtful. Then my Mom suggested going to the Biltmore(I don’t think I am spelling it right but it is the huge house that George Vanderbuilt built.) because she enjoys going there(I personally prefer the shops and the sugar free chocolate that they have there) but I said, Lets do something that I would really enjoy for my birthday so we are going to get sugar free ice cream and go shopping at a certain thrift store(a really nice source for fabric, sheets, curtains, and evening dresses oh my!) and go shopping any where else I want to go so it should be a very enjoyable day! I would much rather go shopping than go to the Biltmore. But right now, I need to go to bed.

Arwen and Eowyn

Arwen and Eowyn are very different, Arwen is a PC and Eowyn is a Mac. Also Eowyn is a white Ibook while Arwen is the color black and a Dell. And Eowyn is very light while Arwen weighs about twice as much. But they are both nice and when one is down it is very pleasant to have the other one to use. I dropped Eowyn as I have already said and it has been nice using Arwen some, although I still use Eowen frequently because Eowen has internet. But she doesn’t run DVD’s quite as well as Arwen does, and Arwen has a bigger screen which is nice for when I am knitting and watching a DVD at the same time. Which is something I do frequently. I have been having a nice break from school since I finished 9th grade. I have started 10th grade but since my Mom is trying to finish my brother’s school I have been having a lot of time off. And I enjoying laying around in my room watching DVD’s and knitting.

Eowyn’s Accident

On Wednesday a terrible thing happened, I dropped Eowyn. For those of you who don’t know or don’t remember Eowyn is the name of my beautiful Mac Ibook. I was walking from one room to another and tripped and dropped her. Unfortunately she was neither sleeping nor off but running and my brother Daniel informs me that the hardrive, consisting of several moving parts, may have been damaged. So I will probably be getting a new hardrive since Eowyn started making strange sounds and won’t shut properly and she has been doing strange things. But ever silver lining has a cloud, I mean every cloud has a silver lining although thousands of people get struck by lightning looking for it. Any way I am going to get a new hardrive and it will be even better and faster and have more memory and it will be a lot less in cost than buying a new laptop. And I am actually writing all of this on Eowyn because she still sort of works. But let us see if she will post…

I really do like doing… although I am afraid they aren’t very grammatically proper. I think Eowyn has just decided that she can load a website. Though if the time she just took to load it is normal I will be writing a lot. However she is now loading things at her normal fast speed. It took me two days to get the courage to try and use her for internet and it will be interesting to see how long it takes for me to check my Email.

Oh, and another thing happened Wednesday that would have been the cause of great rejoycing if Eowyn’s fall hadn’t occupied my mind. I graduated from 9th grade!!! And if my writing seems to have improved it is because I just finished a course on Language. So now I am a little late on starting 10th grade but not too late.
