Scavenger Hunt

An angry exchange
"Where's my pencil?" my sister asked.
"I don't know," I replied. "Ask the cat. He was playing with it earlier."
"It's behind your chair," my sister informed me.
"Well, I didnt know that," I told her.

An out of place object
The cross-stitch projects I have completed for people for Christmas are lying in the box that my friend in Ireland sent my Christmas present in last year. The one has a bagpipe stitched onto it and is for my friend Gabby. The second one is for my grandpa and has a cross on it.

A Well-loved Object
One of my well loved objects in my stuffed animal Bo.Bo. who is a rabbit. I have had him since I was a year old and he has no fur left on him. He has a little blue jacket and is supposed to be like Peter Rabbit. I can't sleep without Bo and he hasn't been washed for a few years now. If we wash him, his stuffing falls out.


Something well used
My copy of the book Inkheart is well used. You can tell so by the rough look it has on the out side and how the spine seems to be giving way. I also love to underline in my books and there are a lot of underlinings in Inkheart. I love the book so much and have read it at least five times.


Something Unpleasant
I find my cat's litter box to be unpleasent. Sure, the litter has something in it to take away the aroma of what goes into the box, but still. I think it's gross but you gotta go when you gotta go. I will not dwell on this subject any longer.


Something fresh, new, or unused
Tonight, my momma just bought us new ponytail holders for my sister and I. They are different colors and stretchy. It feels nice to have a ponytail holder in your hair that you know isnt gonna snag your hair because of how stretched out it is.



A Lost or forgotten object
My momma lost her orignial engagement ring that my daddy gave to her. It slipped off into one of my drawers and we never saw it again. It had one single diamond with a gold band and the diamond was sparkly. Since then Daddy got her another ring to replace the one that was lost. And then she found her old one...so...yeah.




A home-made or hand-made object
I have a bookmark that I cross-stitched. It had a bunny stitched onto it and a letter "L" for Lindsay. Surround the bunny are colorful flowers that remind me of Spring time. Home-made objects are the best.


An act of kindness
I don't know if it counts, but my friends took me Swing Dancing with them last Saturday night. It was kinda hard at first, I learned as the evening went on. The only strange part was when guys would come up to you  and ask you to dance. I did get to dance with my friends too. It was really nice of them to invite me to go with them.

Something Borrowed
I borrowed my friend's copy of the movie The Secret Garden. It is a VHS tape and one of my favorite movies. We are actually doing The Secret Garden for dinner theater so it was nice to be able to watch it again. I actually need to return it to Gabby...

  1. Good job, Lindsay! I think the lost or forgotten object is very cool. How special that she found the orginal diamond again. I'm sure she loves the new one, but the old one would have great sentimental value. Your book, Inkheart, does sound well-loved. I like to underline in my books, too. That means I can't ever replace them because I'd miss all of my notes and thoughts!
