I Simply Must Be The Absolute LUCKIEST Girl in the World....

Here's why: our car broke down this morning, right before we left on our road trip. We were all set to leave, really we were just packing the final luggages and pillows. Then my dad tried to start the car. And, of course, it didn't start. Didn't I just tell you I was the luckiest kid in the world? (I was being sarcastic, PS). But we are lucky that it broke down BEFORE we left home, not in the middle of some rest stop 200 miles away.

If I don't post again today (or if there isn't a big EDIT:.... below this sentence) then you can assume I'm on my way. Otherwise, I'll post again. Ah, luck! 

Meanwhile, here are some pictures of Kusy (who we left with my mom's friend while we're on vacation, the poor dog gets carsick or we'd want to take him) having his 'Zoomies.'

Toodles!

Luck

Well, the kidney stone's out of my brother. He stayed home from school today 'cuz his stomach/kidneys hurt and, without going into specifics, I will say that the stone is out and my brother will have to go see the urologist next week, I believe- Monday, if I am not mistaken.
On a lighter note (or equally as light, depending on how you look at my brother's situatuation), I am one of the top two in my class geography bee. My friend, lets call her Matilda, and I both had seven out of seven questions. To determine a class winner, we were asked some questions, and I lost out on the Dead Sea one- I remembered it, sorta, in Polish, but the English words would not come into my mind. The good thing is, that question did not matter, as the top 6 or 7 in each class will go down one day to compete to get into the school geography bee.
"Should auld aquaintance be forgot, and never brought to mind? Should auld acquaintance be forgot and days o' auld lang syne? For auld lang syne, my dear, for auld lang syne..." shoot I forgot the rest. I have to memorize the first part for a school assembly- we are acting out part of "It's A Wonderful Life" and I am one of George Bailey's kids at the end. The performance is on Thursday, and practice is tomorrow.
Then, the dance on Friday... themed Winter Wonderland and the '80's. Then... freedom. Two weeks of freedom, bliss, snow, family, and, hopefully, a brand new dog.
