BACK TO NORMAL
WELL THAT EERIE THING THAT I CALL SILENCE DID NOT LAST FOR LONG YESTERDAY. NO ONE WAS HERE BUT ME WHEN I POSTED. THEN A FRIEND CALLED AS SOON AS I GOT OFF THE COMPUTER AND I GOT SOME THINGS DONE WHILE I TALKED. THEN RILEY CAME HOME. THEN JUST AS I STARTED TO FRY UP THE SQUIRREL BRANDON CALLED AND ASKED ME WHAT I WAS DOING. WHEN I TOLD HIM I HAD JUST PUT THE FIRST SQUIRREL IN THE FRYING PAN HE SAID THAT HE WOULD BE OUT IN A WHILE---I BET IT WASNT 10 MINUTES BEFORE HE GOT HERE. BY THE TIME I FINISHED SUPPER THERE WERE 9 OF US THAT SIT DOWN AT THE TABLE. ACTUALLY 8 SIT AT THE DINING TABLE-THATS ALL IT HOLDS AND I SAT AT THE SMALL TABLE IN THE KITCHEN. NEEDLESS TO SAY I DID NOT HAVE MANY LEFTOVERS.
SHANE SPENT THE NIGHT AGAIN LAST NIGHT AND BRADLEY CAME THIS MORNING AND ANOTHER FRIEND OF JORDANS-NATALIE-CAME AT AROUND NOON. THE OTHER DAY I GOT THIS CRAZY IDEA OF WHAT I WOULD DO FOR TRIM IN THE OFFICE. YOU SEE TWO WALLS AND THE CURTAINS ON THE WINDOWS ARE CAMOFLAGE AND TWO OF THE WALLS ARE PAINTED ANTIQUE WHITE WITH HUNTING BORDER AROUND THE TOP. WHEN I FIRST DONE THE ROOM I THOUGHT ABOUT PUTTING BRANCHS AROUND THE TOP AS MOLDING BUT FOUND OUT QUICKLY THAT IT WAS NOT GOING TO WORK I KNEW I WANTED TO DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT AND RUSTIC BUT WANTED TO WAIT TILL IT HIT ME--OLD TOBACCO STICKS. YEP I WENT OUT TO THE BARN AND GOT A FEW STRAIGHT ONES AND HOSED THEM OFF A LITTLE AND PUT THEM UP AROUND THE TOP AS MOLDING. SO THE OFFICE IS OFFICIALLY DONE--WELL JUST ONE LITTLE DETAIL. YOU SEE I HAD HUBBY TAKE THEM TO MOM AND DADS BECAUSE THAT IS WHERE THE TABLE SAW IS. THE ONES TO BE CUT WERE ALL MARKED AND TRAVIS WAS HERE AND TOOK THEM OVER IN HIS VEHICLE. WHEN EVERETT CAME BACK HE BROUGHT THE CUT PIECES OVER ON THE MOTORCYCLE AND HE SEEMS TO HAVE LOST ONE LITTLE PIECE THAT I NEED FOR IT TO BE COMPLETED SOMEWHERE BETWEEN HERE AND THERE. SINCE HE DID NOT GET BACK WITH THEM UNTIL I WAS LEAVING TO TAKE JORDAN TO SOCCER AND BY THE TIME WE GOT HOME AT 8 AND HAD A BITE TO EAT AND I GOT ALL THE REST UP-THERE WAS NO DAYLIGHT LEFT TO GO FIND IT. SO I AM ON A MISSION FIRST THING IN THE MORNING.
WHEN WE GOT HOME FROM TOWN AND AFTER SUPPER I HELPED JORDAN CLEAN UP HER ROOM WHICH WAS JUST CLEAN LAST NIGHT BUT SHE HAS A BAD HABIT OF LEAVING ANYTHING SHE TAKES OFF ALL OVER THE PLACE. HER PJS THEN HER SWIMSUIT AND 2 WET TOWELS THEN THE CLOTHES SHE CHANGED OUT OF TO PUT ON HER SOCCER CLOTHES THEN THOSE AND MORE WET TOWELS WHERE THEY HAD JUMPED IN THE POOL THIS EVENING GEES THAT WAS A CHORE JUST TO WRITE LET ALONE PICK UP AND WASH. OF COURSE I GOT ONTO HER. HER ROOM DOES NOT HAVE TO BE SPOTLESS BUT SHE NEEDS TO MAKE AN EFFORT WITHOUT BEING TOLD. I TOLD HER IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN THAT SHE WILL BE WASHING THEM ALL HERSELF. I KNOW WHAT YOUR THINKING -AND YES WE HAVE TRIED A HAMPER IN HER ROOM-BASICALLY IT JUST TAKES UP SPACE AND I STILL HAVE TO TELL HER TO PUT HER DIRTY CLOTHES IN IT INSTEAD OF THE FLOOR. I JUST KNOW THAT IT WILL SINK IN ONE DAY BECAUSE I CAN REMEMBER MY MOM AND DAD TELLING ME THE SAME THINGS OVER AND OVER AND WONDERING IF IT WOULD EVER SINK IN. WELL IT DID JUST NOT IN ENOUGH TIME TO MAKE THEIR LIFE ANY EASIER WHILE I WAS GROWING UP. PAYBACKS I GUESS. SO MUCH FOR GETTING THINGS DONE. I WOULD STILL LIKE TO KNOW HOW YOU CAN CLEAN HOUSE GOOD ONE DAY AND IT BE A TOTAL DISASTER THE NEXT. CLEANING THE SAME THINGS OVER AGAIN AND THINKING "I KNOW I JUST CLEANED THIS YESTERDAY AND YET IT LOOKS LIKE ITS BEEN A MONTH" ANYBODY ELSE HAVE THIS PROBLEM?

Would love to see pics of the girls' new dos'! I had my hair cut into this shorter bob earlier this year after having it down my back for years, have to say I can't wait for it to grow back! Work sucks - always has, always will. I am still making the most of my holiday before I go back. Hope you have a good day today.
