Monday, New week!

 I had a great 4th celebration.  Lots of people and food, my goodness the food. Way too much food!  It was fun and exhausting. To the point I did not go to church on Sunday as I was just not feeling well. I was not sure why, just dizzy, headachy and over tired. Sissie came up and cleaned up the last of the kitchen mess which was quite the chore, and I took a long nap. Bless her.

I continue to water 4-5 times a day which is a lot of work. The grass is coming in nicely along with the weeds, but they say to ignore the weeds they will take care of those later in the process.

Nathan came over last Thursday and Sprayed the new fencing with stain.  It took him 4 hours to do both sides of the 180-foot cedar fence.  I was bid 2500 to do this and I just called Nathan and asked him to do it for 1000. He came through in a heartbeat.  I would rather give my hard-earned money to my son in law than a contractor who is overbidding by a long shot.

We had so much food left over.  Sis and I wrapped it up and took it to the kids that live across the street from her. It is a sad situation as the mother of this lot is in a state mental hospital and the father is a shadow of a man.  He works nights trying to keep the 5 kids afloat. They are nice teenagers and very close together in age. They are always happy to take leftovers.  I know they get some assistance, but not enough for 5 growing kids. Sweet family.

Dan is in Missoula with his older sister who is having a heart procedure. So Sissie is with me, as she is carless. Last night little sis called as her pet sitter reported that her pool was not functioning right.  So, she called us and we were over there twice to rectify the situation. Thank goodness for relatives as the pump would have burned up without intervention. I know nothing about pools, so this was a learning curve.

There is plenty to do in the shop and I plan on getting those last two July dresses done asap.  I want to start on the August dresses and have at least 1/2 of them done before the 17th of the month when we leave for our reunion. 

It is hard to believe; my new grandbaby will be here in less than two months. I have much to do in getting ready, as in completing some kind of makeshift nursery. I need to get sandpaper and paint for a changing table I bought second hand. That is a project to complete this week.

I always have something to do, don't I?

Anyway, what is happening in your neck of the woods?

God is good
