Signe' turns 39 today! I cannot believe that she is that old. What does that make me? In any case the kids are coming for chicken dinner this evening. So, I am having to do a little housework.
I am roasting two chickens, and we are having mashed potatoes a vegetable and homemade rolls. Plus, both the younger girls love pumpkin pie for their birthday dinner.
Gaylord is down with something wrong with his stomach. Not sure what it is but he is miserable. I feel bad for him.
I am down to very little work in the shop.
Kay and I and Lil Sis are all going to Missoula Wednesday morning. We are going to see our last surviving Aunt. We will also see a few girlfriends and then do a little shopping. We will then come home on Friday.
So, a short little girl's trip.
We are having beautiful fall weather, but it is a little cooler and my dog Roscoe loves the cooler weather. He will sit outside for hours. In the winter he will lay outside in the snow. I feel sorry for him in the hot summer. He then lives on the tile floor in the bathroom over the air conditioning vents. But I love to see him outside just resting in the sun with the cooler weather. He is so content. Whenever I leave, he always wants to go with me, but I cannot take him when it is hot as I cannot leave him in the car. But now he does not want to go. He wants to sit outside just enjoying being an old dog. Someday I will want to sit outside, when I become an old dog.
I need to empty the dishwasher as it is full of quart canning jars I washed a month ago. I rarely use the dishwasher, but I will tonight with having a crowd of dishes. I have to put the chickens in at about 3:00 and start my roll dough.
Joel's nephew Stillman came over last night to help with my garbage disposal, and it was a simple fix. And he also replaced some hinges on a bathroom cupboard. I have a light on the back porch that is broken and he took a picture so he can replace that later. He is such a blessing. It was nice to see his wife and two boys. When they went to go home, they discovered that the front wheel on their truck was flat. So that was an adventure. But I have an air compressor, and I took his wife and boys home to check on dinner, and he proceeded to change the tire as the flat one would not hold air. See, no good deed(s) goes unpunished.
Anyway, I am cooking today and doing a little sewing.
God is good.
Kim
