No Pear-Picking For Me (today)

I didn't get out of bed in time, so I wasn't ready to go to Medford when Mom and Dad were. But, that's probably good, because my stomach really hurts right now - I'm kind of way lactose intolerant and I drank a tall glass of chocolate milk before I went to bed last night. You know how sometimes you think somehow it won't affect you for one reason or another, only to discover a friendly: "Yes, you are STILL lactose intolerant. What were you thinking?!"

I'm kind of sad now though! But, I don't imagine picking pears in the hot weather would be very fun with my stomach upset the way it is, along with my allergies which are already being super obnoxious. But, now that I'm up, I think I'll finish my book, play the piano, write letters maybe, walk on the treadmill, stuff like that. And clean my room!

Oh! Last night as I was going to bed, a moth totally attacked me! Its loud, fluttering wings collided into my head! It was intense. Hahaha.

Living in Tulelake

So I've been living here at home for about 3 weeks now and working at Staples for about the same amount of time (2.5 weeks). I'm only working part-time though. But the general manager told me today that they'll probably be adding quite a few hours to my schedule for the next 2-3 weeks. Hours are good!
Tomorrow we're getting up super early to pick pears at the church orchard in Medford! We'll be leaving the house around 6am, pick pears once we get there until noon, and then go to Costco. That'll be fun, other than the forecast of 100°+! But, hopefully we'll beat most of the heat by being there early in the morning!
There is a super-exciting social at the branch this evening! Lol. We're bringing a Papa Murphy's pizza. They'll LOVE that - Everyone loves pizza.
Well, I'm going to read now! Brooke is always trying to tell me I 'need' to read all those Twilight books before I go on a mission! We'll see though, because I have a LOT of books I want to read!
Has anyone been keeping up on the Olympics? How are we doing?! Fill me in!
