Ode to Sea

This entry is a great big shout out to my sister Sea, who deserves props big time. She’s helped me out sooo much since September that it’s not even funny. That girl deserves a gold star. In case you think I’m sucking up, I’m not, she doesn’t even read my blog.

Here’s a list of reasons why Sea has been the coolest:

-She’s letting me stay with her for free until I pay off some bills
-She buys all the groceries (except for chocolate milk and cookies)
-She lets me organize the house however I want
-She drove me to work when I lost my keys and missed my bus. This is especially cool because she had already been at work and had to come home, get me, drive me to my work, and then go back to her work. (I now keep my keys in the same spot all the time)
-She listens to me vent/ramble about boys
-She lends me her clothes, shoes, jackets, and curling iron whenever I want
-She lets me use her cell phone when I go out late so I can call her if anything goes wrong
-She let Special stay over for the weekend even though she never met him and knew he is an Oilers fan (apparently this is a big deal)
-She lent me money to get a bunch of new clothes
-She records all three CSIs and The Office so I can watch them when I come home from work. She hates Horatio, but records him anyway, which is deep.
-She lets me tie up her phone for hours (cough cough… like for 4 hr and 15 min ;))

So this is merely a brief list of the coolest things she’s done for me. But it goes deeper than that, she genuinely cares and goes out of her way to let me know this J. There’s no lip service. I know I can count on her.

I try to show my appreciation with little things, but I don’t think they adequately show how grateful I am to her. When I get the chance, I make her lunches, write happy notes, bake her cookies, and keep the house clean. I empty the garbage, but she takes it out because the garbage room smells. I almost chundered Cheerios all over the place once, it was a bad scene.

My sister is cool.
