Dirty... Jobs

Well today I did a number of things... first of all I got up and had to clean a couple of... wait no before that at like ten I had to make out fishing licenses, five of them... I was writing for an hour... and the store was hot because of the halogens... needless to say it was very humid, both inside and out. Then I started clean a couple of cabins, so Uncle Tom and I went and stripped the beds and stuff and guess what I found in one of the beds. Dirty Socks. Disgusting. Well I finished stripping beds, and there were no more dirty socks... thank goodness. I know that you think that dirty socks are not that bad... but have you ever had stiff socks? Like they were sweaty then they dried. That's the kind of socks I found in the bed. Gross. Lets see... after the cabins, I mowed the lawn some more...then came the really bad stuff. My aunt and uncle are going to the border tomorrow, so they won't be around to help. My uncle usually does things like make out fishing licenses and packaging bait, but he won't be there. So guess what I had to learn how to do... package bait, more specifically leeches and night crawlers. So I am telling you that the leeches were not that bad. I didn't have to touch them. I just scoop them out of a big bucket and put them on a scale and make sure that there is a half a pound of leeches then put all of them in to a bucket and mark it. Not a problem... unless you drop one... ha ha so not funny. I think the 'worst part' of packaging bait was the worms. No scoop... but there was no water either... so that was good. But I am telling you that I had to dig in a giant box of dirt and find worms, pick out twelve and then put them in a container. I have to work on my fear of worms... It took me ten minutes just to convince my self to pick one up... there was a worm right on the top... i feel like an idiot. The funny thing about it was when my uncle came in and laughed at me... that was so not cool. But on the upside today... well i guess the upside for Uncle Tom and Aunt Tami... I cleaned the fish house twice by myself. So there. I didn't complain either... :)

They both think I am a city girl, but they were both surprised that I wasn't as big of a city girl as they thought I was. It just goes to show you that you can't judge a book by its cover, or what people say about it.It was pretty humid and cloudy today... and then it rained. We had pizza for the second time in a row tonight... so much for eating like kings. Like I said before I am in charge of the store until my aunt and uncle get back from the border, at one o'clock. Hopefully I will be pretty busy... I am getting a really nice farmer's tan.. its great... my aunt wants to go tanning sometime... maybe I'll give it a try. Well I guess that is all for today. I miss you all so much!
