12:00PM

Well it isn't looking like today will
go as planned. We were planning on having
Tony and his friend work on getting cement
around the posts this evening. Now they
are requiring all employees to have mandatory
overtime today. So who knows.

I am currently working on our bedroom
wiping it out. I am hanging those one
shelves I originally had in the kitchen,
in the bedroom. That way Tony has a place
to put all his car nick knacks.
Not fun at all getting them even
and spaced just right.
Took out a night stand
in there and pushed the bed over more
to give us a little more room
to maneuver around the closet area.
I don't think they designed these bedroom
with a queen or king size bed in mind.
I think a king bed would take up that
whole bedroom!
A lil squishy but tolerable with a queen bed.

12:30PM

Tony and Randy came over to check out the
fence. All I can say is that Dewaine
and myslelf were on the same page.
He understood what I was wanting to do.
I'm about ready to google some do-it-
yourself videos and me and Tony can just
wing it with what Dewaine has told me so far
about fencing. Dewaine probably thought
I was a bother watching him do what he's
done so far but I was learning
as he did it. So maybe between me
and Tony we can do the fence/gate
and posts across the drive way.

1:10PM

Just got done mowing the front and side
yards. Whew it's warming up, but I think
it's just me sweating. I would have mowed
it earlier like I wanted but Tony had
the key on his key chain. Good thing
he stopped by today on his lunch hour
so I could unlock the shed to get the mower.

5:20PM

Working on pulling supper outta
the crock. Put a deer tenderloin,
a can of tomato sauce, 2 packets
of brown gravy and some onion
seasoning in there and have had it
cooking on high for about 5 hours.

Neighbor kids have been in and out
and in the yard most of the day.
Had a teenager kid ask
me if we owned guns because
there is a Rifle Association
sticker on our screen door outback.
My answer was, that's for burglers
to find out. I left the question
up in the air. We have nothing
more than BB guns, baseball bats
and a ferocious dog (LOL) but with a sticker
like that on the door it will make
you wonder. Hey it was a cheap
form of security. I think I got
an advertisement in the mail
wanting us to sign up for the Rifle
Association. Don't know why or how
we got it but inside was a sticker.

I forgot to mention this from yesterday,
We stopped in McDonald's to get a large
pop for a buck. On each cup was a coupon
for a free smoothie or frape!!

Called Kendra at 7PM Dewaine just got
back to his room from recovery.
The novicaine in his face was starting
to wear off and he was feeling
a little pain. But it all sounds
like it went well. Now will start
the healing process. Not sure when
he will be able to come home from OSU.
So far he's been in there 3 days.
