i got up early this morning to go to church and it was pretty okay. jamie brought me some really cute tatoos and let me pick one to put on my injured knee :-) yay!! she's definitely one of my favorites :-) after church i rode back here with pam and todd since they ate lunch with us. and when we got here my dad was in a very bad mood or something and every 5 seconds he yelled at kim and i to "set the table" and even though we were he continued to yell at us. so i got fed up with him and yelled back at him and, if you know my dad, that didn't go over very well. so him and i got into a HUGE fight. and i went in my room and slammed the door. i was sooo mad that i just started crying! and like 5 minutes later my dad knocked on my door and was like "ashley let me in" and i was like, "NO i don't freaking want to talk to you right now!!" so he went away. then he came back and tried again, but this time he wouldn't leave so i finally just let him in. and he stood there and tried to justify our fight and tell me that i needed to respect him and that if i was angry with him to come to him. and i was like, "yeah whatever dad!" and he left. so a little bit later pam knocked on my door and when i let her in..i could tell she was about to cry too and she was like, "ashley none of this was your fault." and she hugged me then her and i talked forever. then i came out after awhile and ate something. no matter how hard i try, i can NEVER stay mad at my dad. and i absolutely hate it! but him and i both know that he was the one wrong. anyhow, i called braden and talked to him forever then asked if he wanted to come to evening service with us. and he did. yay!! so we went and picked him up, then went to church around 5:00 because my mom had to be there for a prayer thing..and service didn't start until 6:00. so yeah. braden and i just sat in the car for an hour. and it was pretty fun :-) then after service we were pretty much the last ones to leave. then we took braden home :-( okay well i think that's about it. later. p.s. i still miss lauren very much!! i can't wait until wednesday because she PROMISED me she'd come to youth group with me. no matter what!! god i absolutely CANNOT wait!! i hope tomorrow and tuesday go by extremely fast!! i really do! i love her verrrry much!!
