FAMILY FRIENDS

 Hello fellow Homo Sapiens! Today was an early start! My parents woke up at 5:30 am to start the drive from Arther, Illinois to Kansas City, Missouri. I woke up briefly when they first started driving and migrated to my parent's bed and slept for another hour or two. After I woke up, I chatted with my dad for about another hour until I decided to waste my life watching Gilmore Girls. 

Can someone explain to me the point of Gilmore Girls and why it's weirdly addicting to watch it??? Like the whole show just has a ton of arguing and sarcastic comments that are really funny. I find myself laughing but at the same time, I'm bored with all the fighting that goes on between the main character and her mother. But anyway, that's enough of my thoughts on addicting Gilmore Girls. After our long drive, my mom had a meeting with the company she (and I) work through. THEN we were FINALLY on our way to visit our friends! We parked our RV in their yard and I bolted out to give everyone hugs. Who is everyone you may be asking....

THE YODER FAMILY!!! Just so you guys know the backstory, the Yoder Family adopted my family when we lived in Missouri. Thanksgivings were spent, bingo nights were won, and Easter Egg hunts were commenced all at their wonderful house. I have uncountable good memories at the Yoder's house. Willard and Velma, thank you for adopting myself and my siblings as honorary grandkids. I smile all the time when I'm with you two. Emily and little Benny, you two give me such strength with your story and Emily, you mean so much to me and I love you so much. And to all the Wengerds; Adda, Cali, Nehemiah, and Ruby, you four are my kiddos and will always mean the world to me. Enough of sappy me giving thanks. I am super happy to see the Yoders again and although we have a ton of stories together, it would turn my blog into a book! I do have to say, you know you're part of the Yoder Family when you add your shoes to the shoe pile next to the door. Gosh, why does a shoe pile make me feel so happy? Is this a sign I've truly gone crazy??? Nah, it just makes me feel loved. 

My dad spoke at the fourth? or fifth? church. I'm losing count to be honest. But it was the church were used to go to when we lived in Missouri. So, we've seen a lot of old friends and I saw my childhood (more like tweenhood) best friend, Lily. Guys, she's so tall! I saw her and took a double take! It was great to see her though! I've missed her a ton. I'm not gonna lie, I feel guilty saying this, but the relief that went through me was insane when the girl who bullied me didn't show up. I forgave her but I'm also relieved to not see her. 

ANYWAY, gosh I've been so melancholy today! Someone give me some ice cream! Cheer me up for Pete's sake! Do a jig! Anything! I hope you all have at least enjoyed my melancholiness and sorry for the sadness. Catch you all next time with more meanderings!

Kickin off the Krazy

Hello fellow Homo Sapiens!! My mom told me to make this blog for school (yuckkkk) but I figured why not have fun in the midst of school! So, my first post, I know, I know, the big question is “what are you going to talk about Micah?” Well that’s an easy answer, while I could strike up a conversation with a wall, I have an easier solution. A ROAD TRIP! See, my dad (I call him padre often, just for future references), has to visit a bunch of churches all over the good ole USA. Thus making me, my younger brother Zane, my mom, and my dad live in an RV for the month of September and travel all over. So the good news is, I actually have something to talk about instead of just merely say “uhhh I did school today. And read a book.” To start off my lovely little blog (who am I kidding, we all know it’s gonna be crazy 😂), we are going to talk about weddings. Yep, you heard me, a wedding. I know so many of you are asking, “MICAH YOU GOT MARRIED???” So I will answer it right here, heck no I did n...

Chillin with Mr. Lombardi

Me and Mr. Lombardi Hello my fellow Homo Sapiens! It's already time for my second post! It feels like I wrote the first one just yesterday....wait, guys it was just yesterday. We are on our way from the good ole state of Wisconsin to I have no clue where. I realize now that the nickname for Wisconsin people, a cheesehead, is so accurate. And the people embrace it. There was cheese themed stuff everywhere. And lemme tell you, it was TORTURE for someone who can't have dairy. I see cheese stuff and think "ooo that would be yummy" but then I remember the stomach pains I would have to endure in the future....I guess some things wouldn't be worth it. But guys it was cheese....  Anyway! Enough about cheese, The highlight of the day yesterday by far was visiting Lambeau Field, home of the Green Bay Packers. Although I am not a Packers fan (GO NEW ORLEANS SAINTS!!), I felt the need to be supportive for the Packers. The only reason I felt that was because my sister, Lydia, ...
