Music: Toby Keith - Stays in Mexico
I know yesterday I had my "Bitch List" because I was being grouchy and didn't have a great day. Well, today in my Earth Science class, the teacher was talking about science projects in 4th grade, and that got me to thinking about my dad helping me with it, and then that got me thinking about all the things my dad has done for me throughout my life, no matter how difficult I was being with him. So today, even though Dad never reads this thing, I just wanted to say thank you and put up a list of things he's done for me. Thanks Dad :)
- Taken out splinters and cactus needles from my hands and feet.
- Helped me set up lamps for my science project and helped me plant my bean plants.
- Taught me how to play baseball, and all the rules. Watched baseball games with me, even though he doesn't watch sports.
- Coached me on my baseball team because I was the only girl there, and I'm sure he was just looking out for me.
- Drove me to Casper when my best friend moved so I could still see her.
- Taught me to drive a manual transmission, even though I'd given up on it.
- Taught me to shoot a gun, even though that was probably a dangerous idea.
- Rescued me twice when I wrecked my car, once in a ditch and he had to cut me out of a barb-wire fence, and once when I ran into another car and mine was declared dead at the site.
- Helped me move into the dorms and my apartment, moving heavy furniture with me even though his back's not that great.
- Supported me financially throughout my entire life.
- Taught me how to be a good person and to respect others, even if I hate them.
- And finally, like he told me through my entire life, he's the nicest guy I've ever met.

my dad doesn't read my blog either, but it doesn't stop me from writing things thanking him. maybe it's just my way of acknowledging him. it's for me rather than him. :)
