"Hey Schwinds!!! Wow, what a day I had a middle school yesterday. Bailey sure has to work hard every day. All these Vivian girls do!!! School is tough. I did have some fun though!! I got to open her locker, met her friend, Kate (Wow, what a cutie), had lunch with all her friends in the cafeteria, went to her Theater Arts class and listened to them doing improv, learned some math that I mentioned earlier, got to ride home in the carpool and then I needed a NAP!!!! I don't know how you kids do this school and learning thing. It wore me out!!! Well, the next day I was supposed to go to school with Camryn and see what Murfee Elementary was like but she was taking the TAKS that day.
She was taking the writing TAKS which is a test that all the kids in Texas take to see if they are on track with what they are supposed to be learning. Her principal, Mrs. Andrews, sent an email home saying they could ONLY bring their lunch to school that day, no backpacks, no cell phones (can you believe some parents let elementary kids have cell phones...YIKES!!), no school books, no pencils, no Flat Stanleys.......WHAT, NO FLAT STANLEYS? Bummer, I had to stay at their house all day while they were at school and Aunt BA was at work helping an elderly lady move into a new house and Uncle Gary was out working hard seeing all his doctors!!! My choices were to hang out with Princess or hang out with Murtle. I tried to hang out with Princess but all she wanted to do was lick me and sniff me. It was so annoying!!! I tried to ride her like a horse but she didn't appreciate that one bit and kept bucking me off!!!!
I decided to go hang with Murtle!! Murtle just swims around and around in that tank and sunbathes on the rocks. Seemed like a nice, relaxing way to spend the afternoon so I did!!
I tried to talk with him but he just kept saying something into the water and all I could hear was a bubbly noise. I guess I don't speak "turtle" very well. Oh well!! He came over to see me a couple of times and I got a couple of pictures of that so I hope you enjoy them.
Can't wait for my adventure with Uncle Gary tomorrow in Amarillo!!! Aunt BA will tell you ALL about it!!"
