Much Ado About... Moving In

Hokay, so we pull up and I'm freaking out in the truck thinking how hot it is, and how hard this lugging of stuff will be up two flights of stairs, when I hear, "Oh no!" come from my mother. Full freak out sets in. I'm shaking, thinking, "The tarp flew off, my baskets flew out, I DON'T HAVE CLOTHES!" when my sisters says, "we can just wipe it off!" Thinks I to myself "Wipe WHAT off?!" Trembling, I slowly make my way out of the cab and around to the back. Lightly sitting on my stuff, like fresh snow fall, is crumbly tarp dust. Yes, my tarp decomposed on my stuff. It looked like a mouse had diarrhea on the boxes! (sorry, but its true!) Of course, my two older sisters save me from collapsing, which could have potentially labeled me as that "weird-freak-out-girl." I finally get past my nervousness, to help my mother remove stuff from the bed of the truck.
HOLEY MOLEY! talk about working like the ant! The Natural Helpers flock to us, wanting, naturally, to be helpful. Everything was upstairs, including the carpet, fridge, and big box (it was big, but I don't remember what was in there. hodge podge most likely).
Anyways, we go downstairs, bamboozled by the amount of stations we have to go to before I can unpack. Its like kindergarten where you went to the cubby station, then desk station, then teacher station, then nurse, and finally you got to take everything out of your backpack. Except my backpack was a truck. IMPORTANT NOTE! I'm now five foot five inches thankyouverymuch! I'm now above average in height. The nurse told me so! :)
So the rest of the day unfolded (unfeld?) with much boringness and meeting of new people who are quite interesting in the best way possible. The matere left, along with the seester, who I will not see until Thanksgiving... :/ but I love them both veryvery much and I didn't cry :)
Today, (now Saturday) has gone on like no other, starting with not a homemade breakfast, and ending with the bonfire being put out with a fire extinguisher because it got too hot. I meesed lake day at mah church. It seemed like everyone had a good time. No regrets though :) Time for bed, so I can wake up for church.
