Finally a quiet free time to write. It seems like I have been on the go for ages! Maybe not that long. Since last posting, we hosted the Randle Chainsaw Relief crew at the yurt to practice cutting down trees and piling brush. They came up Friday and Saturday afternoon. We had such an enjoyable time as a crew. John Pollman was a excellent teacher and really kept his eye on us all. I am looking forward to more training. Yes, I did use a chainsaw. My bicept was sore for 2 days.

Barbara has a new job. She works at Bean Tree in Morton. She makes coffee---all that specialty drug stuff. I took Kacey there Tuesday, and Barbara made me a Chi latte( or something like that). It was very good and Barbara was so cute behind the counter being so official and all. I am proud of my "little baby". She has grown up to be a beautiful woman who loves the Lord. It is a privilege to be her mother and friend.

I worked with Scott all day on Monday in Eatonville. We saw a dear friend we haven't seen since The Wedding. Marie Nickle is our new customer. Wish we didn't have to charge our friends for the service we do. I look forward to making her place neat and tidy once again.

Just found out that Calvin, Michelle, and Genny are coming up next Wed. What fun! What joy! What dancing feet and waving arms!!! Can you tell I am one happy parent and Grandma?

I sure do love life, friends and family. So, whoever reads this, thank you for being a part of my life.

Here it is

Here's my first posting in my new Blog site. It is a beautiful evening. Scott is weed-eating around the yurt, making the place pretty. The flowers were getting rather lost behind the tall grass. The blue Bachelor Buttons are blooming amid Columbine and three Lilac bushes have exploded with fragrant blooms. They are my favorite flowers. When the wind blows from the south, the fragrance is carried up to the front of the yurt. I love it!
Scott and I spent the day with friends at the Chain Saw Class for the Southern Baptist Relief Association. John Pollman, the instructor did a very good job--keeping instruction simple for us rookies, yet interesting to the pros. As a side note, the food was excellent. Good job, ladies!
As this is my first experience of "Blogging" and I really am unsure of what I am doing, I'll end this rambling account of my day.
