Dear Diary,

I got up and ate breakfast. I had pancakes and sausage. My mom went to McDonalds and got us breakfast. It was good. I went to Miss Georgia’s house and moma gave her some dresses. They are pretty. I feel better today. I am going back to school tomorrow. I won’t get to sleep late anymore. It is a pretty day today. It is sunshining and I hope it stays that way for a while. It is fun to go riding in the car when it is hot. There is this little handicapped bus and it is a pain in the butt because it keeps honking its horn. Now it is leaving and I’m glad because it is a noismaker. I wish it would never come back again. My moma is looking at the mail we got today. She doesn’t feel very good right now. I sure do hope she feels better. I feel a whole lot better. My bus just came to let the kids off the bug. 

Your writer, Carly
