Sent out and Arrived!!

sorry i havent posted in a while been sick for the past week due to a sinus infection :(
ok so my friend hope and i went out and got $160 worth of stuff, i will put the whole list in a different post, it was really really fun and then we packed them and got a ton of stuff in only 5 boxes!! the next day i was out sick but we needed to get them shipped so my dad and i went out and shipped them, we looked kinda weird but i dont care!  i checked up on them on the online tracking, they only updated one, and it only "got" to the sorting faculty, and by today i was worried they weren't going to get there in time but thankfully either she had made a special request about them or it was a good week so they got there in only 8 days! i just got the email saying that she is shipping out in about a week and a half so she is going to deliver the stuff in the next week!! to the soldiers stay safe and well, keep strong and wise, dont go insane, and i will talk to you guys soon!
a salute to the soldiers and im off!!

a salute to the soldiers and i will be back soon!!

count,roll,count,roll,count,roll!!!

that was what i was doing all weekend!!
so from Friday night to Saturday at midnight i was a hermit locked up in my room at my grammy's counting the rolling penny's, i was also watching movies the whole time just to give me some sort of entertainment lol. i watched Uncle Buck,The Bourne Ultimatim, Facing the Giants, and Despicable Me (twice). i think i have gone a bit insane when it comes to all this but i don't care. my parents, teacher, and assistant principal all thought i should use the change machine at Meijer's but i wouldn't go for it because it would cost about $5-10 and that would be up to 100 pencil's for the kids! so i decided to put in the man hours instead! we have $42.31 in penny's alone, i still have the silver left to go, i cannot wait to see the banks expression when i bring it in lol!!
that is an update on what is going on, to all the soldiers be safe, keep strong, dont go insane like me! and i will talk to go guys soon!
a salute to the soldiers! and its time for lunch bye!!!
