Ain't No Big Deal...

Okay soo... I been goin' along real good 'n ain't get in no trouble for a long time.  But sometimes things just happen 'n 'fore you know it, there you are all in a hot mess.  Yep.

So Bren 'n me was at school 'n our mom came to get us.  That was real nice cause mostly she ain't can come pick us up too much.  Anyhow, she was talkin' 'bout how she needs to clean out her closet. Well I ain't care too much 'bout that cause maybe Bren's neat as a pin...and she is...but I sure ain't.  So I was real dumb 'n tole mom that Bren was gonna clean mine.  Note: If you're ever plannin' to swindle your sister into doin' your half of a job, you ain't oughta tell your mom first.  So Bren said no way 'n I tole her I'd pay her...  Went about like this after that:

     McKennah:      I'll pay you!
     Brenna:            cept for how much you will?
     McKennah:      ummm
     McKennah:      uhh
     McKennah       looks in her pockets
     Mom:               Brenna!
     Mom:               you let her buy you like that?
     McKennah:      what? It ain't my homework!
     Brenna:            -=*giggles*=-
     McKennah:      um
     McKennah:      twelve lindens...
     McKennah:      the tore off part of my report...
     McKennah:      and some lint?
     McKennah:      oh and half a cookie
     Mom                looks at the blue sky with her hands on her hips
     Brenna             thinks
     Brenna:            cept for I will only like a WHOLE cookie m'kenna!
     McKennah:      DONE
     Brenna             beams
     Mom                laughs!
     Mom:               you girls are too much
     Mom:               how about we ALL do inventory and I'll have cookies and milk out?
     Mom:               and that's more than ONE cookie Bren
     Brenna:             okay!
     McKennah:      aww man
     Mom                smirks
     McKennah:       man
     McKennah:      you messed it up mom!
     McKennah:      geeeeeeez
     Mom:               i don't know... I get to spend time with BOTH of my girls and bren gets more cookies...
                             I don't see a downside to this
     Mom:               do you bren?
     Brenna:            Nope!
     McKennah       grumbles
     Mom:               one point for mom!
     McKennah:       ain't no fun livin with someone who can out bribe you...
     Mom                 laughs
     Mom:                you'll learn to love it

Sometimes life just kicks you real hard in the bum...

Anyhow, you're prolly sayin' that ain't sound like no trouble, 'n you're right, it ain't.  Real trouble came later, when I was back at school...

It was Friday, spellin' day, 'n near's I can figure, ain't no one else like spellin' no more'n I do.  Audra come up with spelling testitis, which near's I can tell, means she ain't wanna take her test.  Either that or it makes her sick.  Heck, I been gettin' that since spellin' was invented, I think.  Anyhow, mostly all the kids had it, but Miss Nevy's a tricky one.  You gotta watch out for her.  So we hadda take our spellin' test anyhow.  I spect if you die 'n you go to the bad place, you gotta take spellin' tests every day for your first year or two.  Glad I ain't goin' there. 

We went to lunch, 'n I guess everyone was gettin' crazy cause they hadda take the test, cause Audra 'n some other folks start throwin' stuff at each other.  Now my mom found out 'bout them colorin' on the walls in Bren's class 'n she tole me if I did that, she'd drag me back up to school with a bucket of Comet 'n a scrubbin' brush.  So I figure, I ain't stupid 'n I ain't gonna draw on no walls, but I ain't really want no other trouble neither.  So I moved cause that's sposed to be the grownup thing, right?

Well...grownups ain't never have no fun, 'n they sure ain't gotta go to school with other kids.  Cause I sit down with Mookie, 'n Sloane chucks her whole slurpee at Mookie from clear 'cross the other side of the room.  I dunno where Miss Nevy was, but she sure wasn't payin' no attention, cause you'da hadda be deaf 'n blind not to see that thing comin'.  Sloane ain't got the best aim in the world, so she missed Mookie by about two feet.  Cep she ain't miss me, 'n she hit me square in the head 'n messed my brand-new shirt all up.

Well...sometimes you just gotta stick up for yourself.  Ain't no one else did nothin' so I offered her a knuckle sandwich, but she just burped real loud 'n laughed.  That point, I was real mad, so I took that slurpee 'n went over there 'n chucked it all down her front.  Served her right, too.  She's awful lucky I ain't dump her off that stool on the floor too, but I was tryin' to be good.  I even went back 'n sat down, cep Mookie threw a cookie at me then.  Spect anything mighta happened then, cep Miss Nevy woke up 'n figured out we was revvin' up for some sorta knockdown.  She got real mad at alla us... the whole class even, 'n made us miss recess.  We hadda all go back to class and sit with our heads down. 

I figured my life was pretty well over 'n I might as well get my stuff packed up 'n find me some hermit cave in the Wait or somethin' but it ain't work out too bad.  Sloane 'n me are fine friends now, 'n ain't no one else too mad... mainly I guess they liked me fine for keepin things interesting.  So us kids all got stuff worked out, 'n I ain't know why them grownups all got their underroos in a bunch cause they sure do.  If you think Miss Nevy was mad, you shoulda saw my mom. Figured maybe there'd be a hole in the roof from where she went clean through it 'n I spect there is cause it rained the other day 'n it leaked all in my bedroom.  So that's prolly why.  I can't figure them folks out... I mean, I ain't even really got to fightin'.  I ain't hit nobody or nothin'.  I guess when you get old, weird stuff happens to your brain 'n makes things all complicated 'n fussy.  Spect I ain't never growin' up then.

I made this for Mr. Jace's class for my art project.

Comin' Home

 So I ain't wrote in a while.  Cause sometimes life's like that -- you get so busy you figure you're gonna come in some day 'n notice you left your own head on the breakfast table that mornin'.  But lots happened 'n it's mostly been real good.

Firstly, I guess the best thing's that we got our house in Little Wonders.  I ain't mind sleepin' in the Wait, of course, but it's real nice to have a real bed 'n now Bren's got a place to put all her art stuff.  Best part is that we're livin' with mom again. 'n that's real special cause it means we get to be a family again. Not that we ain't before, it's just way better this way.  Bren's real happy cause she gets to ride the school bus, cep when mister Cree crashes it.  So anyhow, that's real great 'n it'll be nice for other kids to be around.  We been a family for a whole year now 'n I spect we will be for a whole nother one maybe.  'n that's real good with me.

So we still got school. I did my rain forest report for miss Nevy.  Mom ain't too happy with it cause it was kinda messed up 'n got tape stuck on it 'n stuff, but I turned it in leastways, so I guess that's somethin'.  Miss Nevy got her voice back so we been havin' all kindsa work, geez.  I spect where most ord'nary folks dream about flyin' and wakin up in their Underroos on the first day of school, miss Nevy prolly dreams in homework assignments. 

 

Sometimes weird stuff still happens.  We ain't got so many spiders no more.  But there's other weird stuff.  Like when I look up front, 'n Jess's head's up on the ceiling wavin' around 'n ain't no one notice but me.  That's some real weird stuff, man.  I dunno what they put in them school lunches, but one of us better start bringin' from home cause I ain't really wanna see this no more...

The ZOO!

Cept for Friday we getted a FEEL trip cos we goed to the zoo! Cept for we dident get to feel those nice animals cept for only one girl b'cos she getted in trouble goin in that cage. B'cos maybe she will get eated all up if she goed in there.

Cos we seed a ELLAFANT an we seed a graff cos they getted a BABY graff cos it getted SO CUTE. Cept for I will like to get a pet graff only it counent eat our flowers.

Cos then we seed the lions cos they getted their DINNER. Cept for there getted mostly bugs everywhere cept for I dident know why b'cos they dident eat BUGS. Cos that gets SILLY! Then we getted climbin up the tall tower! We seed the penguins an the donkey too! Cept for then Sierra goed to see the wolves b'cos I LIKE those nice wolves. B'cos the wolf lady telled us nice stories when I getted livin with my borned mommie an she singed us the Wolf Song. Cept for those zoo wolves dident sing cos we goed right in there b'cos there dident get any fence. Cos m'kenna telled me they dident get singin to STRANGERS is only why.

We goed to our class again cept for we getted too tired cos we taked a NAP on the table. Cos Joshy an Faith getted takin a nap cept for I only getted pretendin cos I dident get too tired. Cos then they waked up so we can get PIZZA an I getted my nice pepperonis on my pizza. I gived Miss Kendra her nice card I maked b'cos she getted BIG sick. B'cos she getted more porkepines I think. Cept for I liked that fun zoo day lots!

I Ain't Never Been No Jock Before...

Well, I made the soccer team.  Mom's real proud.  Cep everyone who tried out made it so I figure she ain't really got nothin' much to be proud of.  But I'm pretty glad I got to be on it'n I'm glad Miss Jill give me the chance to.  She ain't just pick her family or the kids she knows real good so that's awful fair how she give all us kids a chance.  Then we can make somethin outta it or mess it up.

I been practicin' real hard.  Even my mom took me to practice, cause I'm pretty okay at offense, but I'm a lousy goalie.  That's way harder.  I only stopped it a coupla times, but that's still better than none, right? 

We had a picnic in Mr. Jace's class.  That was okay, I guess.  I sat with Pygar.  He's my study partner, and he's real cool.  Even if he did bring some green stuff casserole thing to eat, and dump soda on his fries.  But I like him real good anyhow, cause he's cool to everyone and he makes sure ain't no one feel left out.  I like that cause I gotta work on it some more; I ain't like no one to feel that way 'round me, and I ain't like feelin' that way too much myself.  Plus he's pretty funny.  I got a picture of Mr. Jace standin' on the dinner table.  Any picnic where the grownups is standin' around on the table's gotta be pretty fun, right?

Soccer and Young Citizens

We had soccer tryouts yesterday.  I ain't ever played soccer too much.  There's a ball and you gotta kick it real hard and get it in a net.  It's better if you get it in the net for your own team.  So Miss Jill was real late, and we thought maybe she forgot.  We were playin' before she came, and I scored some goals.  But I ain't never seen a soccer ball that sticks to your shoes before.  I did okay anyhow, I guess.

Miss Jill had an emergency, and that's why she was late.  But she got there.  We played 3 on 3 first and I scored a goal.  It was a walk-in, but it still counted.  Then we played all together and that was a lot harder.  I dunno if I did so well in that part.  I got benched, but I ain't sure that means too much, cause she put me back in later.  I prolly din't get on but there's gonna be a lotta kids on the team.  She's prolly gonna make two teams.  I guess that'ud be better than nothin.  I could practice at least so then I could get on the first team later.

On Tuesday, I couldn't spend the whole time in Mr. Jace's class, but we ain't do too much nohow.  Yesterday, we talked about food, and he put out all this food'n then took it away.  Then he tole us we're gonna be fightin' world hunger this year, which is pretty awesome cause we're just kids in a class in a crazy world ain't no one but us understand.  It's awful cool when we can do stuff that makes a difference in the other world.  We're playin' every day for rice at this site here:

http://www.freerice.com/

So you can go play too if you're readin and you can add your rice to my team *grin* cause red team is so gonna win.  Well, okay I guess that'ud be cheatin and we already got our backsides chewed for cheatin' when we ain't even did it yet, but you can go and play and earn rice anyhow.  Cause I been starvin' before and it ain't too much fun so I guess it ain't really matter who wins.  Cause them people that get the rice'll be the real winners and us too cause we made a difference.

We're havin' a barbecue on Saturday.  We ain't even hafta wear uniforms *grins*  I'm bringin' watermelon.

New Beginnings

So school's been pretty okay.  Bren ain't make cheer, and I ain't sayin' no more 'bout that one cep she gets mopey 'bout stuff easy.  But it still ain't ever shut her up, so I spect she'll live.  So I got soccer tryouts soon, I guess.

I got two classes: miss Nevy's class and mister Jace's class.

Miss Nevy's class ain't too bad cep she keeps givin' us homework.  I hadda write in my notebook, but I already had this one.  So that's okay.  I ain't mind writin 's long as no one ain't fuss about my spellin'.  Course, we got spellin' every week, catch her.  We hadda have our first class in the park, but last night we got to be in our real classroom.  I got to pick my seat and I got to sit in the back.  We got a giant Hobbes in our classroom too.  Calvin'n Hobbes is way cool.

Homework = YUCK!

So we hadda eat lunch in the classroom cep I ain't bring no lunch cause Mom was sposed to wake up but she din't, and we din't go to the cafeteria.  Plus we stayed in for recess, cause the lag was real bad and Miss Nevy was a fartball (Don't be gettin' mad at me neither cause that's what she called herself, I ain't make that up!) and she couldn't move.  So someone set these big ole spiders loose in the room, and they were runnin' around tryin to eat folks.  I ain't too scared mostly, but they were BIG.  So I threw a book at one, and then I got my baseball bat out.  Cep then the spider run off, and the principal walked in while I'm holdin the bat.  I think she ain't seen the spiders, so I hid that bat quicker'n scat.  I figured I was for it, but she musta had a busy night cause she ain't notice.  Anyhow, most kids were screamin and runnin around and climbin on stuff, and Rory was cryin.  It was pretty much a monster mess so I hope Miss Nevy ain't get ate by lag imps too much.  Or spiders. 

Then we learned about nouns and adjectives.  Then we went home.

With homework.
