This week has gone by fast as usual! Last Thursday night, we spent the night at the camper in Millington. We ate fast food on the way out there, in two vehicles (Jeremy Wilson came along), and unloaded at the camper, then went into town to the festival. We ate at McPherson's, let the kids play games, ride rides, and then went to the fireworks. Erin didn't like the bleachers, so she stood on the bottom the whole time. Lyndsay fell asleep and woke up during the finale:( So, we got back to the camper around 11pm, went to sleep finally around 12:30 after getting Lyndsay to finally go back to sleep. Jeremy and I got up at 4:15am and went to work from there. The kids went back to the house after getting up. We went home after work, got things ready, animals taken care of and went back to Millington, going to the festival again. This time we had Jeremy Wilson and Stephanie Scott with us. We ran into Forest and Brenda Putman and their 2 girls and visited for awhile until town emptied out. This time, Lyndsay stayed asleep, thank goodness! Got a good nights sleep, then got up in the morning and mowed/brush hogged as much as I could before Amber, Brooke and Curt left to go home and get ready to go to a youth activity. Then, it started raining:( It rained most of the day so it was a good excuse to relax a bit. Jeremy ran wire underground to the camper (a permanent pole for camping) in the rain, working in the barn on the electrical box when it was pouring... We hope to get power hooked up to the barn this fall, making it much more convenient. The kids came back, this time with Jean Scott and we watched a movie before going to sleep. Got up, went to church in the morning, then back to the property to have more rain while cleaning up and closing it up for the week. Sunday night, the church had the college kids fellowship/shower and Amber got showered with lots of goodies to take with her to college.
I had Monday off, went with Amber at 8:30am to have her braces removed (YIPPEE!). She looks beautiful! Then, home to fold laundry until my dr. appt at 11am. I found that I am anemic and he has me taking iron for a month to see if it will resolve. Maybe I won't be so tired now! Then, home to pick up a few kids and go to the vein dr. appt. I am scheduled for surgery on my right leg Sept 4. He will just remove the ugly "poochy" vein in my right leg below the knee. We won't do anything else for now, it's not that bad yet. But, I have to promise to wear my hose after surgery. I will be back at work the Monday after. Then, picked up my contacts and got groceries and visited a friend in the hospital before coming home to get dinner going! Tonight, I picked from the garden, sprayed my beans to protect them from the aphids that are eating them and then went to Heathers and cleaned 2 stalls before worming Gentleman and coming home. We're off to bed, but will post some pictures in the next day or two! Have a great day!
