Hi It's Kaly again,
My mom feels like I'm grounding myself in my own way, even though I'm not. She thinks that I am because one of my sisters is grounded and isn't ungrounded until the 7th of November. And I keep playing cards, and trouble with her. Trouble is actually a really fun game. Well, today I got really pissed off (p-oed) at my mom because all she kept doing is nagging me to do my blog, and to do tons of other stuff.
Yesterday I had a really good day, I had two appointments that I had to go to though, but they weren't that bad at all. One of my sisters, my mom, and I all went to my first appointment. I also fond out that I weigh ninety-two and a half pounds, I'm five foot one and a half, and my waist is twenty-six inches. My step dad's waist is only four inches bigger than mine, can you believe that! Before my second appointment we went home, and picked up my other three sisters, and my brother. Then we went to the D.I. in Salt Lake City, to look around. We ended up buying two chairs for our kitchen, one of my sisters, and I could do our homework downstairs. We also bought two camping chairs, some clothes for my mom, and a skirt for one of my sisters, but that sister says she isn't ready to start wearing dresses. That sister is a tomboy, just like me, only she is a little bit more, but I am pretty daring most of the time. Before we went to my second appointment we got pizza to eat, and then went to a different area in Salt Lake City to go to my appointment. It was lot's of fun. Later on after my step dad got home, and after I got done doing my other stuff for honors english, all seven of us went out to dinner, that was lot's of fun to.
Here are some reasons why I say I'm more daring than the second oldest sister in the house right now. One time I rode my bike and jumped off ramps with these guys that lived in our neighborhood. I came home with help, because when I jumped off the ramps after they connected them, I ended up doing a somersault flip thing in the air before landing on the street where we were doing jumps. I ended up coming home to get cleaned up with some help though. One of the guys walked my bike into my family's garage for me, and I went inside my house to get cleaned up. The reason why I didn't bring my own bike was because my arms felt like they were broken when I tried to move them, and I was limping because I had hurt my right leg really badly. When my family saw me, they asked what happened and I told them. I asked if my mom would come upstairs to help me clean up, and she did. I also took a bath after I got cleaned up, just to help me calm down because luckily I hadn't broken any bones, but my body hurt really bad. It took about a month for the pain to fully go away.
Another time that I was daring was when I went up into our attic, it was super hot up there though. Only that time two of my sisters were with me, we were weirded out though because their was a rope up their just hanging enough room though to hang a small animal. Another time two of my sisters, and I jumped off our roof onto our trampoline. I was lucky I hadn't broken my neck, because I almost did. When I landed on the trampoline I felt really bad pain in my neck.
From, Kaly the daredevil
P.S. None of my siblings or parents have jumped off ramps on their bikes.

Jealous of Parents
Hi It's Kaly,
I'm doing this blog so that I won't have to do one over the weekend. It gets really annoying having to do them over the weekend and cram it into your schedule. Because sometimes I get really busy over the weekend and totally forget to do my blog, and it just so totally sucks! I sometimes wish I could make all my homework just do itself, and get 100%, and on tests and quiz's, I automatically knew all the answers, and got it totally correct.
Okay the reason why I'm jealous of my parents is because they're going to go to Las Vegas, and we have to stay home. They're leaving early on Sunday, and coming back sometime the Sunday after that. My dads work is paying for all the gas that they use on the way to Las Vegas, and also is paying for their hotel. Their going to be staying at the Golden Nugget. My grandma Sue is going to be staying at the Sahara. My mom has to drop my dad off at work in the morning at the Bologio, and then she'll probably just go back to sleep when she gets back to the Golden Nugget.
I'm also jealous because at the Golden Nugget they have a slide that you can go down, it's circular, it's see through, and it goes right through a shark tank. So while your having fun getting wet on the slide, you can look at the sharks that seem to be surrounding you from all directions/sides. It does stink though because the pool is only open until 6:00 p.m. at night, and that's only because they don't want you swimming, they want you to actually go sight seeing. And when I say they I mean the owners of the strip, popular stores, and stuff like that. Also they want you to go and gamble, visit the strip, visit stores, go eat, and just go do something entertaining, you could even ride one of the rides on the "STRATOSPHERE," like the BIG SHOT, or some other ride. Also the elevators leading to the stratosphere "go up three levels in just one second, and it has one hundred something levels in the whole entire building." When I went to Vegas two years ago with my family, it was the funnest time of my entire life!
When I rode the Big Shot in Las Vegas the only people in our family out of all seven of us that did do it were Kadee, dad, and I. Mom, and Milaya couldv'e done it. Mom said she was to scared, and that if she did it she would probably pea her pants, and my sister Milaya was to scared, and she also never wants to leave moms side, and mom also didn't want to leave Brett and Kinnan all alone with no one there to watch them. Because then they were only both six years old, and turning seven, but if they were left alone then who knows what kind of trouble they would've gotten in. I hope that mom and dad remember to bring back souvenir's, and I also hope that they are good ones this time, because last time they weren't that good, and that's because all they were, were beaded necklaces. For those of you who have been to Las Vegas you know what I'm talking about when I say there's the strip and you look up, and you see a giant television screen, it's so awesome, it's one of the best things that I saw while I was visiting Las Vegas with my family. I had an excellent time in Las Vegas, and so did everyone else in my family. I thought it was cool that we stated in the Sahara in Las Vegas on our way home. It was really fun being able to swim in the pool, and to relax in the hot tub since I was and still am old enough to.

Dreading Homework/ And Dreading Not Being Able To Go To Church
Hi It's Kaly,
I feel like I hate my mom right now, because she's having me get onto Shelfari, Falcon Forum, and Blogger, just to update everything so that I wouldn't be behind, of course I really don't hate her though. She's having me get up at 5:00 A.M. in the morning, just because I didn't start doing this homework until later. I have to get up so that I can do a Geometry quiz that my mom set up for me, and so that I can do a current event for science, and I don't have to do one for Geography, because I have already turned them all in.
Anyways enough with that, I just took a Spanish test, and I'm very confident, but I'm dying to find out the results. I had studied the night before for at least thirty minutes, until I was totally sure that I knew all of the information. I also studied during homeroom. I was actually able to answer two of the extra credit questions, and my step sister who is also in Spanish, but has a different teacher wasn't able to answer any of the extra credit questions.
I probably won't be able to go to church tommorrow. Only because were supposed to go out to eat brunch with Pop who is our Grandpa, but as you can see we call him Pop instead of Grandpa Dave. I really badly want to go to church tommorrow. Mostly because I think that there's a good chance that one of my friend's will be there, and there's been a rumor that she had the swine flu, that she had to get her apendix removed, and I want to ask her whether she is still in quire. I also just got a one time only temple reccemond, and I wanted to tell that to the young woman leaders, also so that they knew I could do baptisms for the dead. This will be my first time ever actually going into the temple, although I could've If I had gotten a reccemond before now. Because you can enter the temple once you become a young man or young women, and you have a temple reccemond. To tell you the truth I was babtized three years after the usual age for baptizing, which if you did the math correctly is at age eleven. My step mom converted from being a christian to a mormon when she was in her thirty's.

Goblin Valley
Hi It's Kaly again,
I forgot to do a post for last week so I figured I might as well do a post about one of my family trips.
Well we were all packed and ready to leave for Goblin Valley on Thursday, because we didn't have school that Thursday or Friday.We had to get up really early in the morning, but of course I couldn't fall back asleep. Because once I wake up for some reason I can't fall back asleep as long as I'm awake enough.
On Friday we got all seven of us in the truck, and left to the gas station to fill uop our water bottles. Only we had forgotten our refrigerated food, and the jack for our trailer. So it was good that we went back to get that stuff. Because if we didn't we wouldnt have any food to eat because we wouldn't be able to get it out of the trailer, because we left the jack at home that goes to the trailer. And then we would've been really screwed.
We had lot's of fun hiking. We hiked Ding and Dang. It was an 8 mile hike all around. First we hiked Ding, the Ding Dang Dome, and then Dang. It was really fun. There was a lot of shimmying that we had to do. I'll have to post the pictures some other time. On Dang my mom went through water that went clear up to her knees, while the rest of us had our legs on one wall, and our arms on another, shimmying across, so that we wouldn't have to cross the water. We are doing hard hikes like that to get ready for the Subway, which is in Zion's National Park. We also did Muddy creek. We had to do shimmying in that one to. My sisters, and I all went through this really narrow thing in the rock, and none of us got stuck. It's a good thing my mom didn't try, no offense against her, it's just that she would've gotten stuck for sure. We only did four miles of Muddy Creek, but we could've done thirteen miles if we had wanted to.
There were lot's of stickers where we camped, so it took us a while to try to clear out some of the stickers around the trailers and trucks tires. When we finally got that done we had already also gotten a lot of the trailer done. The thing that I hate most about doing the trailer is having to do the beds, because of the bars, and sometimes it takes a long time, but other times it doesn't. I also don't like getting the trailer ready for us to use it, or having to pack it up again. Because it becomes a really big pain after awhile.
Around our campsite we had a lot of really cool places that we could hide, and climb on. It was really fun to play on them. Some of the rocks were shaped like faces, and my step dad said that it's said to be where Indians buried there treasure. He scared me and my sister when we were climbing on these rocks, because he came around a bend and started making weird noises. So I'm sure you'll understand why I got scared.

Junkyard
Ok so here I am posting another blog, because I am leaving to go camping to Goblin Valley down in Southern Utah. I'll tell you about the last time that we went down there. It was a nightmare!
Our first night camping went ok, and we were in a very quiet area with nobody else around. The weather was warm and I liked it because I didn't have to wrap myself in my sleeping bag. After I'd gone to sleep it started getting chilly so I had to get back into my sleeping bag. Even though we had a trailer, it was a little cold because we didn't use the heat that night, but not bad.
The next day it started out ok. We woke up, ate breakfast, packed our hip packs for our hike, and got into the truck. After just a few seconds, we noticed that there was trouble. The brake line went out in the truck and it leaked out all the brake fluid. My sister and I ran back to the trailer to get duct tape, to see if my dad would be able to tape the line until we could fix it.
We made it to a gas station in Hanksvile, after riding for about 25 miles without brakes. That was fun. We went really slow and made it. We ended up waiting around all day long for either a part for the truck, or a tow. In the meantime my sister and I climbed up a huge dirt hill because we were bored, and it was hot. My dad tried to get help from some local man that lived in town, but didn't have any luck. The man was really wierd too. He sold beef jerky for a living and was "about to open his 3rd shack". Strange hu?
The end of the day came, and we ended up getting towed to a motel and the truck ended up at a garage.We had to grab all of the food out of the truck and brought it with us. We got a hotel room for 3 nights and were stuck there the entire weekend, instead of hiking and having fun. We did have fun swimming, but it would've been more fun to go hiking and camping.

This Weekend
This weekend we went to the junkyard to look for a window regulator for our truck. We looked for a trailer tire and a spare also, while sitting in the hot sun. Earlier that day, we went to my cousin's birthday party in Lehi. He just turned 5. We played limbo and danced to music. The kids got to hit a pinata and get the candy out of it, of course the oldest went last. We are the harder hitters you see. I actually had an ok time looking for tires for the trailer, but it was probably because I was listening to music on my mp3. So I kinda danced and searched at the same time.
The treats at the party were really good...I saved my tootsie roll for last because it was the best out of all the different candies.
Today at school I found out that I got 25/30 on my geometry quiz. I was so happy. I am in geometry because I passed my algebra over the summer really well. I had one B+ and an A. I hope to continue to do well as the years go on. For my age and grade I consider that to be pretty dang good, but I do like math.
Tonight I remembered to post another blog, and so here I am doing it. I was really busy yesterday doing the junk yard crap and the other usual stuff that I have to do before bed. One of the worst things I have to do before bed is having to wait for the bathroom. I am glad that bedtimes are spread out, but I don't like waiting for the bathroom. We all share one and there's 5 of us. We have 2 bathrooms, but my mom and dad use that one of course. Well that's all for now, hope this is ok to read, and interesting. See you later!
