AUGUST UPDATE

Well to say it's been awhile is an understatement, I had been having problems with my hot-spot and that is what I use to get on-line with.   What a crazy busy summer and it has been fun too.

Last weekend Ali-Mac & Laura, Skye and kids home for Harvest Fest.  Was fun.  The blow up bed in the camper kept deflating, I think we finally have that fixed.  Hope and Hudson kept flattening out.  But you know kids, they can sleep anywhere.
U
The weekend before that I worked at the Library.  Try and work 2 days a month.
We had our family reunion at Sibley State Park this year.  Was fun. I have to keep Makons out of the fray and with Jim it is not an easy task.  Makons bit my middle toe on my left foot on July 25th and
its is still red, swollen and painful, at least it's starting to scab over.

We had a fish fry at the family reunion and we are having our annual church fish fry out here tomorrow.  Will be fun.  Lots of details left but it will come together.  I hope so anyway.

Well just wanted you to know I was still here.

Some sad news.  Carrie and John's mother died August 1st.  We went down for the funeral last Monday.  She was only 72.  Jim was with the kids Thursday through Saturday before she died and I am greatful for that.

It seems every day is super filled, I have bone builders every Monday-Wednesday and Friday morning, bible study evert Wednesday at 3:30, prayer group every Friday morning at 8am, help clean
the church every Thursday I an in town, Lion's meetings and activities, working at the Library and I
just joined the Altar Fuild at church.  I am having great fun but Jim and I had a break this summer.  We went to Ill for a week and then Dot Nancy and I camped for a week in Fountain City WI.

What a dog, I was merely walking up to a picnic table and she was under it and bite me.  Thank goodness it was me and not one of the kids.  I am starting to use the shock collar on her.  It seems to be working.  Thank you Gail so much for the use of it.

Next week I am having an MRI and start therapy to strengthen my back.  We all know it will never be wonderful but I wish it could be a little better.

I am having DOSSIER the end of the month and another fish fry.  Nancy and Dot will be coming up to help.  Yes and drink wine.  Jim just took me to Total Wine.  What fun I had.

Have to get busy.

Will keep you posted.
